seraphe Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 (edited) Gave myself a little watch storage cabinets when rebuilding our home storage system for the renovation. There are two cabinets with pull out shelves - one side tall and the other short.This is the short side...And this is the tall side. There are still unoccupied shelves with enough space for 20-watch boxes, currently used for my watch-related books.How did I convince the missus to let me build this? I let her build half a wardrobe of cabinets for her handbags. Edited February 27, 2013 by seraphe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martijnp Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 That's what I call a wardrobe, impressive collection you've got there mate! Those watchboxes (Mitch & Marc) look great too. Where did you buy those? Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The CF Diplomat boxes were bought off eBay, the black piano wood Caddy Bay was from Amazon, and the Mitch & Marc was a gift from my father.

sgtguk Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 That is absolutely awesome seraphe very nicely done mate, and some great watches too ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Gorgeous set-up. I use the stealth storage approach. If you store them in enough different places and in different boxes it is possible your wife does not figure out the magnitude of your collection. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krpster Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 F'n eh! That is awesome. I really need to take on an organization project in the walk in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seraphe Posted February 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 F'n eh! That is awesome. I really need to take on an organization project in the walk in. Thanks! I'd do a proper walk in if space allows. Similar to my choice of watches, I'd like to keep my home deco uncluttered. That is absolutely awesome seraphe very nicely done mate, and some great watches too ! Thanks, mate. Too many tries and thoughts into my choices over the past 8 years into this hobby. Gorgeous set-up. I use the stealth storage approach. If you store them in enough different places and in different boxes it is possible your wife does not figure out the magnitude of your collection. If you have a wife who loves bags and shoes as much as mine does, I'd recommend you take the opportunity and be upfront about it. Let her build her bag cabinet and you'd get this.

masterful_blaster Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 impressive, i really like the AP/ Hublot Case. lovely collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff g Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Beautiful cases, wonderful collection. Every time my wife views my collection her comment is something like...they all look the same...black dials, ss straps. I suppose she is correct, but like your stach...they all look different to me, and extremely beautiful.. Your AP And Hubolt drawer is awesome. Wear them all well. And your cabinetry skills are incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewFuller Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Leave aside the boxes. I am simply mystified by the collection of watches you have out there. I have noticed that each box is dedicated to a specific brand. I loved that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
