Bank safe deposit box and watch travel case
I use this watch travel case to put my watches in, then put them inside the bank's safe deposit box. It fits just the right size, maybe a few mm too large, but the box closes and the watch is nice and secure. But it also takes up most of the tiny deposit box that I have. I was wondering if anyone here knows of similar travel case that would be more compact and would allow me to put 4 to 5 watches instead. Thanks!

RSC watch pouches might be a good idea if space is limited.
I think Everest has something called watch wallet so potentially you can put two on top of each other. Travel cases come pretty much in similar size. |

I’ve always been a watch pod travel person.

Check out the new Everest Wallet. It came out a few weeks ago.

Saw it. Kinda wish the whole thing wasn't so flat, like the middle seems like a thick soft cardboard. I'd want it to be more like a elongated oval.

Plastic Ziploc bags. 20 for a buck in the supermarket.

Good question. I was just thinking about the same thing last night. I have the smallest safe deposit box as you and need something slim/minimalist as well.

A Watch Box fits best in my safe.

So many to choose from … in almost any capacity … wood, leather, glass top, solid top … ranging from $50 to $3,000 (probably more).
That they are flat, makes them an easy fit … stackable even. I have an Elie Blue (8 watch) … I am a sucker for their products. Look for Watch Box threads herein … there will be lots of pictures / descriptions of various watch boxes. |

That’s exactly what I use. I can fit 6 watches in a small safe deposit box

Actually, the last service pouch I got back from Rolex was plastic with a zip seal, although it was higher quality than a Ziploc bag - green with the Rolex logo. I have a couple of the old soft felt/velvet-type service pouches too. They were much nicer.
Grey/vintage dealers also often store their watches in clear plastic pouches, probably for space reasons and ease of visibility. |

I never use travel box. I just toss the watches to the bottom of my back pack. Never had any problems.

Had the same issue. I have a watch roll for travel and put watches I’m not bringing in my safe deposit box. I bought a couple of watch pod type cases. They also better fit my wife’s smaller bracelets. I have one 2 watch pod and a couple of singles…
