Motel Stays

I travel weekly and am having a hard time deciding where to lay my Sub when I go to bed at the hotels. At home it sleeps on its rolex pillow in the box, but it is not practical to take the box with me on my travels.

Thanks

BP

+1. Anytime I travel, it stays on my wrist -- even when I sleep!

I travel quite often also on business and always leave mine on my wrist when I sleep.
I always know the time, even if the hotel supplied alarm clock should fail !

What exactly is your issue?

Are you worried about theft, leaving it behind or not having the box to put it in?

I keep mine right on top of my wallet when traveling.

Good idea. I am not afraid of theft, just leaving it behind. THe other good idea is placing it on top of my wallet.

Hotel Watch Quandry

I usually don't wear my watch to bed. However, I do when I'm in a strange place i.e. hotel on the road.

The adage still stays true. The safest place for your Rolex is on your arm!!

I always put my wallet though the wristband. It kind of acts like a pillow for the band so the insides don't scratch against each other and I'll always remember it since I'd always take my wallet with me.

You can buy small travel watch cases that are well padded for travel. Fits in a computer bag easy.
