Never bothered with a winder...
...as others have said, they’re a waste of money, and I like setting my watch when I haven’t worn it in a while.
On the topic of boxes, I’ve outgrown the cheap box I got from Amazon, and I want something that I can pickup and move easily and even lock away when I’m traveling, so I’m looking at some of the custom pelican cases out there.
Watch box advice?
All, As my collection has grown to a few pieces, I am now trying to navigate through the jungle of watch boxes and winders, and was wondering if you happen to have any advice? I am looking for a box for 8-10 watches, with room for large watches (Panerai),...
Regarding winders....
I have more than a few.... they are collecting dust, in storage. Unless you have some pieces that are difficult to set with complications like a moon phase or perpetual or possibly annual calendar I avoid them. While they prevent the need to reset and win...
Hi K-G, it's alle about choices,
do you want an ordinary box, or a very beautiful one, wood/leather/plastic, closed or glass lid etc etc. For +/- €100 you can have a nice leather box for 10 watches, but you also can spenderen a lot more. Send me an pm and I can give you more info if you ...

💥 Don’t bother with Watch winders - Pointless 💥 Wrap your watches with Clingfilm of similar 💥 Keep watches not being used in safe at bank
The best winder is your wrist and if you don't a particular watch every time, it deserves a bit of rest. As for watch boxes...
I understand your attraction for them, BUT... The problem is that you can never use them with 100% security. I had a very nice one for 10 or 12 watches, I don't remember. I put some nice watches inside. The thieves are still thanking me for this kind atte...
I'm totally with you
on the fancy display box plan. And while leaving them at a bank is very secure they are out of reach... difficult to access, which is why I look for compact but safe (from damage) ways to fit into my not huge but bolted down safe at home. Not as safe as t...
I know you’re a kind French guy but
I never knew you donated watches with nice storage box too 😈🤐
Leather
If you have a secure location to keep it, Underwood makes a sturdy, handsome, black or brown leather 10-watch box large enough for oversized watches. I like that the watches sit far enough apart that there is no risk of metal-to-metal collisions within th...
In Regard to Winders and Boxes
I keep all my watches that are not on a winder in a home safe. I live in a highrise so no worries about thieves. I have several travel cases depending on how many watches I'm taking (2,4 and 10). I do keep a few pieces on a winder, however, only those tha...
Don't bother with winders
As for watch boxes, I use Underwood and Giobagnara (please google for them) leather boxes. They are very elegant and durable. Sam
