I had no idea people didn't like the new Breitling box! As soon as I saw it I was like "whoa, awesome! So cool and much smaller!" I love it, frankly.

Nice watch boxes

I would not dispute the fact that some of the fancy watch boxes are very nice to look at, and I think if you have the room for them and store you watch in it, when not in use that is cool. But there are downsides as mentioned previously, waste of resources for most of us probably who put the box back in it's packaging and store it in the closet. I store my watches in a couple of fairly nice multi-watch storage boxes when not in use that are either leather or carbon fiber or even a Pelican case made of ABS plastic, because they take up much less room per watch and are easier to get the watches into and out of. I think that one other downside to a really fancy watch box is that it costs a pretty good amount of money to make and if I am not using it, then it could run the price of the watch up several hundred dollars or more for something I am not using. I have a couple of watches that came in pretty fancy packaging, but none are used after the first day of ownership.
