Ezio, that is really some nice work. Like a piece of art to hold pieces or art.... I saw a guy who made some out of cigar boxes which I thought was a nice use of resources.  I smoke a lot of cigars and have a ton of boxes in the garage, but I am not much of a handy man.  Your post has inspired me to give it a go.  I think this weekend I will get one going.

I would buy a 6"x6" sheet of 30 gauge (.25mm) Argentium or LG422 Silver and do an inlay of the ROLEX Coronet by hand.

You definitely have the talent for it.

Well done mate! Im a caprenter myself and i can see that you know what you are doing. Actually i have a thought in the back of my head to build myself a watchbox but the lack of time is always a fact. But one day i will build one. Im thinking something like a aged pirates trasure chest in walnut or teak wood combined with ash wood that holds 6 watches.
