Watch Box

[Dan_1981]

Looking for reccomendations for a wooden watch box

To store either 10 or 12 watches.

I'm gonna bump this, because I'm looking for one too, possible smaller.
A friend recently bought one off eBay, looked great in the pictures, in reality it was horrid and nasty.

So some advice would be nice, my omega has loads of scratches on the clasp, just because I put it down anywhere. A box would be useful.

Decent price & great quality. I love mine

A+T come highly recommended, as above.

I wanted a display top for mine, I've got one of these;

It's great value for money, I know other PHers have them too.

The Lidl tea box looked like a great value alternative, but I missed the boat on that one and I don't think they've had them in again since.

Here's mine, same as Al's. As he said, great value for money, also has a handy drawer underneath for straps and stuff. Won't be as high a quality at the A&T box, but it does me.



Each compartments width is great but the face of the GX56 (big, black square looking G-Shock) used to touch the inside of the lid when it was closed, but then it's a BIG watch...

Thanks all -

If anyone is interested in an AT&T box you'd better be quick - they've stopped making them!

They have a new shop here: http://stores.ebay.co.uk/AandTCrafts2?_trksid=p434...

I'd like something like this but without the glass top (just space for watches and a drawer for bits and pieces). Anyone know of anything that fits the bill?

Another thumbs up for the Lionite box - for the price it's great although the compartments can be a little shallow for taller watches.

Pay actual money for one ?

Are you mad ?

Step 1, Go to local winemongers and ask nicely for some wooden wine cases. For free thankyouverymuch. Perfect size for a 4 X 3 layout according to my fag packet maths.

Step 2, Hack the top bit off, so it's not so tall. just under 1/3 rd should do it.



Step 3, Using driftwood left over from an Ikea 'project', fashion a framework for your secret layer under where the watches will sit.



Step 4, haven't got there yet.

Anyone know where I can get some decent dark coloured watch pillows ?

I got the pillows I use in my 'Lidl Tea Box' watch box from ebay, cheap but not nasty.
