So... what do you use as a watch cozy when traveling?

Here is what I use. I guess I could purchase one of those green Rolex soft travel cases but this seems to work fine.

I wear my watch 24 hours a day while traveling. I don't trust those safes at hotels, nor cleaning staff.

Rolex Green Pouch. I have about 10 of them. Small, protective, and work great. I have them in my carry-on bag primarily so I can secure my watch while navigating through airport security.

Only time I removed my watch while traveling was through airport security. In that case I actually had brought a fresh sock and simply placed it in my carry on. Not as elegant or nice as a case, but it worked nonetheless.

Absolutely...that's why I have an Explorer; never out of place, any place.

When leaving the U.S., yes only one watch--Customs.

Case budi for domestic travel.

Agree, watch stays on my wrist.
I also travel with 1 or 2 strap options (nato & leather) in the event i feel it would be better suited to fly under the radar.

Case budi is a great choice for temporary travel storage, non-descript, cheap and very good durable protection for your watch.
