Watch box recommendation

I need a watch box that can fit four to six watches. I currently have one that is 7.5x7.5x4 inches, but it is slightly too small for AP ROO. The lid won't close completely which is bugging me. I've looked a bit online but I'm having a hard time finding a good option. Box can't be bigger than about 10x10 inches. The one I have would have been perfect if it was about 8.5x8.5x5.

How about an authentic Rolex box. I got one as a gift and I truly love it. Google it, they are that expensive

Check bosphorus straps on Instagram, they have great boxes with different designs and capacities. Top notch leather work and great customer service. Can't recommend them enough

This one is bigger than your size requirement but it’s a work of art.

That's the direction I'm leaning as well.

LV ones are very nice with the customization. We’re working on getting one done.

OP, maybe a winder box? I’m using a wolf one

For something under the radar but durable, I went with Watch Case on Amazon. They make the insets for Pelican cases and are pretty cheap.

Look at Venlo Company. I own a watch box, pen box and valet box from them. Beautiful wood and hardware, and Tom the owner is great to deal with.

David Linley is the Queens nephew, his company make some of the highest quality furniture that money can buy. The boxes are exceptional.

Beside these already mentioned...

Rapport London have nice 5 watch boxes:

https://www.rapportlondon.com/watch-boxes.html

If you prefer leather boxes go for Underwood London...

https://www.underwood-london.com/pro...ry/watch-cases

Best cheaper option is Case Elegance... Herringbone models are really unique...

Watch box recommendation



Can’t think of a better way to serve up an entire collection on a platter for the burglars. Except maybe leave one of these on top of the cabinet...

The problem with this is that it isn’t a safe and won’t meet insurance requirements unless it’s in a safe room that is a vault. You can tell by the lack of thickness to the sides of this trunk that it offers very little security.

Although the OP was asking about watch boxes, for anyone needing a safe the following info may be useful.

I just ordered the Rainer 8-watch box, which appears to be of extremely high quality based on previous reviews and photos for right around $200 shipped to the US from Germany. I'll have it this coming weekend and will be sure to post some photos and impressions.

The pictures look amazing, do you have any experience? Their claim of "The outer leather of our watch collector cases are made of the best quality Saffiano Leather" raises some suspicions...

Berluti makes a real nice one. Its a good amount more than the LV box however (and a SS Rolex for the most part).

Some great looking boxes. I noticed they no longer have straps on their website, which I was curious about.

Orbita Makes nice cases and watch rolls.
I have one of their watch rolls and love it.
They have nice cases too that are well priced for the quality.
