How do you store your watches?

Wondering how everyone stores their watches. Whatever watch I'm wearing at the moment usually goes on the countertop next to my wallet and keys, but I haven't found a good way to store the others. Would like each watch to remain readily accessible (as opposed to storing them in the box they came in). I'm thinking something like a tray that I can put on shelf in a safe or in a closet drawer.

Let me know what you think, and let's see some pics!

My watch always goes back in the Rolex box once it's off my wrist.

Curious but does the rolex cushion get discolored because of the dirt?

... may not be a good idea for some who may end up selling it down the road.

+1. And the boxes are stored in a cabinet that locks.

After the years keeping my watches on individual boxes or drawers, I bought 2 matching wolf boxes. Wish I did this a lot sooner

Either a Watchpod case, or Watchpod display stand.

Do you find the watchpod display stand too large or too small? I ordered the large and it was too large. The small was too small. I contacted the company and they responded with no plans to make a medium size.

Otherwise, I really like them.

$100 dual watch winder from Amazon. A rotating circle is a rotating circle. Does the same thing as a $600 watch winder.

I guess there's a limit as to how many sizes they can make for the stand. The ones they have now work perfect for me I love them.

I'd be curious to know what size wrist you have?

I have a few friends who ordered some at the same time as me and they all fit perfect.

Same here. My DJ is on my wrist or on a folded up sock on the dresser at night.

I have a Pelagos as a second watch, chills in a drawer on a sock.

I don't like to open and close the boxes, it seems to break/tear the hinges

I just leave it in drawer or night stand. Watches are tough and no need to baby it. Davidsw gave me a watch holder couple weeks ago and it is still in my car
