Bosphorus and Wolf make nice single rolls. Also consider the Rolex service pouch, Oakley watch vault or hard cases like eleven11 prints.

I use WATCHPOD which can easily be bought from Amazon. Essentially it is like an Oakley case but with extra cushion. Fits and protects my SD43 perfectly.

I use a Tudor watch case. The smallest watch case I have seen. Not of the SD but would fit an SD. I also have a wolf single roll. More robust.

I use a Rolex leather travel pouch, but let me offer a little advice, if I may: A good friend of mine recently got an expensive new watch, and had gotten in the habit of taking it off while out and about, and putting it in a single watch case; afraid to scratch his new watch. Eventually the watch AND the case was either misplaced or stolen. He doesn't need to worry about scratches anymore. Moral of the story; the safest place for your watch is on your wrist. Don't let a little worry about wear and tear take away your enjoyment. Congrats on the new Seadweller!

^ Indeed!

This reminds me of some news I read recently. They caught employees of my local airport steeling belongings from travellers' suitcases. Clothes, food, jewelery and of course watches. Suitcases are not a safe place to keep luxury goods. Beware.
