Thanks Oliver....
As my wrist are quite small, anything over 44mm just looks nearly clownishly large on me (like a 58mm on most others). I fact my fiancé (wife on Valentine’s Day) has a wrist slightly smaller than mine, so we can mix/match/swap watches. The 5066a is for her to match the 5167a for me as we are very active plus the 5066a uses an automatic/mechanical movement and not quartz as found in some other Patek women’s timepieces. Then again only I get to wear the just serviced by H. Stern 3970er J
New LV Watch Box With Pateks
It was the holidays so decided i needed a new watch case. Sadly, seems there 'needs to be' at least two more Pateks in my stable FYI: The B&R was for when i was racing in Formula 2000 and the vintage Omega was mine and then my brother's (who passed aw...
I see a very nice and eclectic collection ...
stored in a very sophisticated solution :-) Love it! Oliver

can you tell us more about the box?
can you tell us more about the box? is it current LV production or vintage?
I'm a fan of the Gondolo 5099...
Could you please post pics of this watch? Thanks! Fx
Fx...
Great pics, far better than i can probably do, are already online. See For many years admired the 5099 and one day finally gave in :)
Come on, come on...
Don't be shy, post yours including a wristshot please! Your pics are excellent! Fx
Inside the LV box, under the tray...
...is a small storage area for Patek soft cases, various straps, pocket watch(s) and as you can see someone was thinking as the industry standard Bergeon tool fits perfectly. This allows me to easily change straps on the fly, grab only one watch and case ...
Such a handsome looking case! I'm impressed.
I never like anything LV, but this is something I need to relook. I never have to bring out so many timepieces outside of my home at once, perhaps just 2-3 timepieces at most when I fly. Is there smaller nice looking one like yours to recommend? Mech.
You could ask LV to make the box in plain brown if you don't..
...like the logo all my LV products are plain with a small impressed logo that you can hardly see, the quality of the leather goods is amazing a bit expensive but will last a lifetime.
Three watch LV case in black leather...
Mech, they have a smaller case for three watches in classic monograms and black leather (see below pic), yet what concerned me was the lack of 'sectioning' and, thus, cases could possibly rub one another during travel. You can do a search on the LV site a...
Great watch collection
I like the watch box too but if I used it as a travel watch box I think it's just too much of a magnet to criminals who would clearly have a field day with a collection like yours. I imagine the box and contents look magnificent on a beautiful piece of fu...
Well, naturally i don't...
I don't walk around waving it in the air when travelling. You are right it does look great on the wood shelf or table. It is a bit extravagant but you only live once. Same can be said for enjoying a Patek versus...
Unfortunately these days...
The reality is that you don't have to wave your bling in the air to get noticed and become a target. I didn't think for a minute that you would be waving it in the air!
As they're many fake LV flooded out there, at
least in this part of the world, LV is deemed like a 'heartland' item unfortunately :) In fact a lot harder today for criminal to differentiate real from fake, the stake has been risen if they strike on the wrong one :) still, I would stay low key when I ...
Somehow the refinement of Patek watches suits a case like this...
I'm not sure that a collection of Royal Oak Offshores would look right!
reverse the heads
I have the green leather case and I simply reverse the heads so a clasp is next to dial of the next watch in line. I would not line them up in a row as they could slide into each other. You can really secure them in this case as the cushion is soft.
beautiful watch case!
love the 3970 and 5110!! two of my absolutely favorite watches!
No Handle?
I would love the tan leather handle they do to be on the case for secure transport. I drop things.
Nice
Great your LV box! I think that for you now your Omega watch is the most valuable as it was from your brother. But please remove the giant B&R... it is not too nice to see it with your great Patek watches.... You only need a single small step to impro...
I never tire of looking at your pics here over and over. Question...
... is that a 3970J or a 5970J?
