Mens valet tray set (watch, cufflink storage etc)

[rich85uk]

Well i first posted this in The Lounge section where it was not very well liked at suggested i posted it here so will try again (not sure how to move threads so cut and paste will have to do)

Afternoon all

after looking for watch and cufflink storage i stumbled across one of these:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Stackers-Mens-Black-Set-3/...

i thought it looks excellent, seems like an all in on watch, cufflink, loose change, mobile phone, car key etc big posh storage boxbiggrin

does anyone else have something similar? thought it would be better than my current money tin, various coins and cufflinks in random shot glasses etc

or does it seem abit gay?

Doesn't seem gay, but speaking personally I wouldn't use one. Two reasons:

1. I'd quickly fill it and having two would seem wrong. A bigger solution required.

2. There would be a lot of value in an easily transportable box. If burgled it would be too easy to carry off with all my prized baubles inside.

I have a chest of drawers with a "secret" top drawer in which is a Mulberry cufflink box, a separate small box for collar stiffeners, three pairs of leather gloves, a leather tie carrier, hip flask, pocket binoculars, Mulberry travelling jewellery roll plus a few other bits and pieces. Watches are in one of several safes.

^ Mulberry this, Mulberry that...For a moment I thought it was Mr Gould posting.


Who was it that posted a few months ago with the magnificent handmade and bespoke chest of drawers with the watch winders that rose up from the top of it?

OP- you need one of those. We all do dammit.

Aspinall do some nice valet trays.

You cheeky monkey.

In point of fact all my leather goods were gifts (and no my wife is not a multi-millionaire) but I do like to have a top drawer full of nicely organised gentleman's accoutrements.

Thanks for the input and heads up that Stacker stuff is not that great, looks like Dulwich and Axis seem to be good for the money

Next you just need one with a watch winder

I remain suspicious that winders wear watches out more quickly. Nice to have a watch ready to rock though.

I disagree that the stacker stuff is poor quality. My wife has the girlie version, and for the money I absolutely can't fault it. It's not going to be up to Aspinals quality obviously, but I certainly wouldn't call it flimsy. John Lewis stock it if you wanted to see it in the flesh before buying.

I agree, they you disagree. I've got the Sacker set, very happy, does what it should, in a neat and tidy manner.........
