I've just ordered one of these off the Bay, I'm sure it's not going to be the last word in quality but for a tenner it's somewhere to store some watches and keep them in order.

Pics to follow when it arrives.

I had one of those for about 15 mins - then threw it away. It was so shockingly bad i couldnt put my watches in it.

Speak to gallardoguy about the case he uses for his g's. Ive now got 2 and they are top knotch.

Its a camera case and is about £35.

Well worth the extra.

cheap watch box?
Easy, a Lidl tea caddy and some insulation tube.
Never done it myself as I use winders anyway, but have seen good results on other forums

I have the same box. it's pretty cheap and nasty, but it'll do the job.

I have however given up on it and bought one with winders due to the number of Autos I seem to be buying!

I got a couple of THESE

Good enough for my needs, good pillows and fits 10 reasonably big watches. The drawer takes straps, bracelets and cuff links and lots of other watch related things like spring bars and batteries. smile

The seller has other boxes as well.

Disclaimer: I have no connection apart from buying my two boxes, but the service was spot on with next day delivery both times.
