What To Do With All The Boxes.....
We talk a bunch about where we put the watch for the night, or show nice storage boxes for many of them...
But what the heck do we do with all those darn boxes that accumulate ???? They take up some serious room....

Sell all of your boxes on ebay and you'll have enough money to buy another watch !!

Every time I turn around I'm reading how I have to keep the box, tags, plastic, stickies, and every freaking scrap of paper that ever came in contact with a Rolex, or I lose half the value......  I can't possibly let one go....  But with these, a few Omega boxes, and some others, I'm gonna' have to rent a storage unit just for the stuff that comes with them...

Well worth holding on too... you can literally buy another nice watch if you sell each of those on the bay!

I like to keep each watch in its box until I wear it for the day then put it right back, close the box. This way, every time I take it out, I feel like I got a new watch! My name is Forrest Gump...people call me Forrest Gump.

How about putting some coal in them and wrapping it up and giving them out as Christmas presents
Your family members will think they have received a Rolex for Christmas and WHAM have some coal It would be best if they all opened them at the same time.
