How to store bracelet

[mchad]

I have a 5513 that I alternate between the bracelet and Nato straps. Up to now, I simply put the bracelet, links and bars in a little tray on my dresser. Up to now that is. Yesterday the cat knocked something else off, and I just imagined combing the carpet for the spring bars or end links...

I'd like something more secure (not from theft, but from the inevitable aformentioned knock over, or inadvertant scuffing that may occur) to store it in. I keep my watches either in a winder or on my wrist, so no "jewelry boxes" for me. I was thinking about some kind of pouch, or case I could put it all in.

Any suggestions?

Maybe one of those plastic bags that the Natos come in (at least from strapcode they do) or a swatch plastic box or similar?

I would wrap it up in a polishing cloth and place it in so sort of small case. There are so many different kinds of small cases that will fit a watch or a bracelet, it is just a matter of doing some searching at Target, Walmart, Ace, Home Depot and many other local stores.

I use a small cigar box.

If you drink Crown Royal use that bag. I use crown bags for everything from a bag to hold golf accessories to storing tools, bolts, nuts, screws, and washers. You could always just wrap it in a paper towel and stick it in a ziplock bag then stick it in your dresser drawers. If all else fails get rid of the cat. LOL.

Yup, ziplock sounds like an easy solution

probably the best idea. I was just being lazy and hoping for an easy amazon.com order!

Strap ziplock.

Looking for a dropped spring bar is no fun. It once took me 2 weeks to find one (it "sprung" across the room while changing straps). Just get any plastic bag, or buy a bunch of back ups!

I wrap the bracelet in Saran Wrap to keep end links and springbars in place and then put it in quart size Ziplock Baggie. Has always worked for me. Safe and protected.

a little box inside your closet? Some people store them with the tools used to service the watch. I like to assemble kits of things and tools that I would need to complete certain tasks. For instance I assembled in a zippered pouch all items I would need to plug up a emergency leak in my boat. I find this is a good way of organizing things to keep everything you need for a specific task in one spot. Does that help?

Ziplock bag! :-)

I bought a slack handful of the green aftermarket pouches (I won a Rolex one ages ago on here and was taken by it)...I use them for transporting watches and for keeping spare bracelets in

No way, I'd go the whole hog and get the 4c ziplock bag.

Better to be safe than sorry.

Let me get this straight. You need HELP for what type of container to use to store your watch bracelet?

Some folk on this forum never fail to amaze me with the questions they ask. What happened to good old common sense?

I was wondering what others might use.

Funny how all others were happy to reply, and only you decided to post an obnoxious reply... THAT amazes ME.

Have a nice life.

Have a agree and what a simple solution to a very simple possible problem, or stop the cat from getting into the bedroom by closing the bedroom door.

[mchad]

I think this will do nicely.

Ziplock, then into a small toolbox that holds various tools & extra parts... Links, springbars, straps, etc.

You guys have it all wrong. This is what the OP needs to store his bracelet:

I like that suggestion best.

[Welshwatchman]

Put a cover on the tray?

[Welshwatchman]

... or put the covered tray in Ed's safe.

[Tools]

Use that butter tray in the fridge.. the worthless one in the door with the little flap that nobody uses..

[bigrustypig]

Jus put in a small plastic box and that should keep it well.

Hardly obnoxious. Maybe you are a little bit touchy my dear.
