If you happen to travel through O'hare, the Oakley store/kiosk has tons of these for MSRP. I bought two not that long ago. Could never imagine paying $45 let alone $90!

IIRC, from another thread on TRF, those are the large ones in the store.

They aren't that hard to find, I bought one today at the Oakley store on Hollywood Blvd. a few weeks ago when I was in Vegas I bought two at the Oakley store at the mall. $20 each plus tax.

Personally the large is an excellent sized case. I always wrap my watches for two reasons.
1-micro cloth to wipe her down and remove any oils etc. 2-micro cloth just holds the watch stable so as not to shake around in the case. I own both the large Oakley and the Casebud. They are actually the same size. Only difference is the exterior. Oakley has that fabric that has a checkered pattern and also the hump for lack of a better word inside is a tad larger. Otherwise they are identical and would recommend either one. If you must have the Oakley label go for it. Just my two cents. Aloha, Tom |

I managed to buy the large watch case from the Oakley outlet at Katy Mills in Houston a couple of weeks ago. I picked up 2 of those. Very happy with it.

Great cases but would never pay over retail.
I've got large and small - perfect for travel. |

The watches move around...even in the small case. You need to wrap them up as said previously.
The cases are not meant for traveller se - that's why they're called "storage" cases. However, many folks ( including me) do toss them in a bag when on the go. |

If you go on ebay & search rolex pouches you will find some black & green ones that are sold by AceTimer. I've bought 5 black ones for $22.00 they work just fine although not good as genuine rolex pouches but great for storing your watch & traveling.

would rather chew glass then pay $45 for a $20 item. would never buy a casebudi either, JMHO. They pop up on e-bay from time to time but usually at a crazy markup. They come back in stock sporadically on the Oakley site, just be patient.

I just tried to order one - will not ship to Switzerland. Wassup with that? Oh well, back to waiting for Oakley (been waiting since January, when I tried to order one). Bunch of shite, if you ask me. |

The case buddy is definitely inferior in terms of quality...

I've tried all my local Oakley shops, nada. If anyone over their summer travels finds any grab em, they'll go quick here and you'll be a hero! I'll take 2 or 3 BTW...

I just grabbed 3 large Oakley vaults at the store in the Lenox mall in Atlanta. They were like 21.70 including tax each. If anyone wants to pay me that plus shipping I'll happily disperse these into the works. Vincent I'll hold one for you if you want.
The guy at the counter actually said, "yeah you know guys from those Rolex forums just come in and here and take 'em. Like one guy got ten and I'm like you actually have ten Rolexes? He said nah I have some others." I didn't even mention Rolexes or the forum to him. Guess we're a notorious bunch! |
