Kiterpete Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 New to the forum I was wondering how do most members store or display their collection. Even my 'gens' right now are just sitting in a draw, my suits and ties are displayed better in my closet than my watches and I believe I have more money tied up in the watches With watches on order and a few on my wish list how do I display them - are there storage/display boxes you can buy? Pics would be nice so as to get some ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephane Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Great idea. I would love to get some ideas too... I first put each watch in its corresponding box, then went for separate boxes containing several watches (6 Rolex Modern, 6 rolex Vintage, Pams, Omega, ...). None of these are cool. I am going to go for woden boxes with 12 watches but in which place put theses boxes ? I want to be able to see them when I want and hide them when I'm away... Not an easy puzzle Cheers Stephane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 If you have a proper glass display case with shelves like those used to display rare plates & curio items, I think it is pretty cool to see watches displayed in their original (gen) boxes (and with all the manuals & other assorted materials they came with). Otherwise, there are hundreds of cases made for storing & displaying watches. Start with thewatchprince.com or search google. I use some inexpensive glass-topped wood cases I got from a chain store many years ago, which are nice but definitely showing their age Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dluddy Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 I use some inexpensive boxes from Acetimer.com. I also have a few in OEM boxes, an 8-watch winder and a number of soft sided zippered 4-watch cases.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deltatahoe Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 i've been thinking hard about getting three (or four ) of these nice, understated watch boxes from a guy selling them on paneristi. i like that they are simple & don't draw too much attention (in their closed position that is )... you can find them here... deltatahoe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
