I use the plastic coffins to store them.. Much, much easier to keep..

zengineer · 31 March 2019, 01:51 AM

They are not very impressive compared to Omega and others but then again I don't want to pay for a nice box since they all just live in a big Rubermaid tub on top of the safe, never to be seen again unless I decide to sell.

I keep my watches in a safe. Boxes just go somewhere. Need to find them - Have too many.

beshannon · 31 March 2019, 02:25 AM

Yes

It is the storage for my warranty card.

LooseCann0n · 31 March 2019, 03:03 AM

Don’t use them - they are in the loft with papers, links etc.

My wife’s Patek box is on her dresser where it resides overnight - that’s a much nicer box.

oldman2005 · 31 March 2019, 03:09 AM

Imo, Rolex box is not well made so it's kept for resale (which can increase the resale value significantly and replacement is not cheap nor easy to find ). There're much nicer cheaper watch boxes out there

Yoda_Eating_Pizza · 31 March 2019, 03:18 AM

The box is good for storing guitar picks.

fsprow · 31 March 2019, 03:53 AM

I sell them on eBay.

I don’t use any of my boxes, Rolex or otherwise...

didyunt · 31 March 2019, 04:24 AM

i do use my watch box to help keep my watch safe and free from scratch.

richard371 · 31 March 2019, 04:24 AM

Sometimes I put mine in the box and open it and pretend I just got it. Wait how old am I again? Don’t tell me no one else has done this.

Tqmb79 · 31 March 2019, 04:28 AM

I do not use my boxes. When I had one watch I used the box. Now that I have a few the boxes are locked away.

doboy007 · 31 March 2019, 04:29 AM

Stored away safely.

HappyFish · 31 March 2019, 04:30 AM

Used watch - used box. Unworn watch - unused box - kind of logic!

SearChart · 31 March 2019, 04:30 AM

Nope, it is accumulating dust somewhere.

TopDog2315 · 31 March 2019, 05:08 AM

I use my box for my sub, goes on the pillow every night.

[QUOTE=vin328i;9496475]Hello all,
I am wondering if people try to preserve their Rolex box by not using it.

I know that is a plus for resale value however I almost feel guilty for not using this modern green box.

What is modern about it? They've been the same for years

joli160 · 31 March 2019, 06:03 AM

I don't use them, they are cheap feeling and looking imho

RichM · 31 March 2019, 06:09 AM

No I don’t other than to keep the extra links, hang tags etc,. I bought a watch roll and keep the watches in the safe. The large boxes just take up too much room.

2001jesper · 31 March 2019, 06:14 AM

I mainly use mine for collecting dust

Rocketman39 · 31 March 2019, 11:50 AM

Does anyone know of a service that could repair a wood 5513 Box ?

MTdweller · 31 March 2019, 12:00 PM

No, my wife bought me a nice wood box that fits four watches. It sits on my dresser and the Rolex boxes are in the closet.

Oldwoods · 31 March 2019, 12:17 PM

Boxes in a draw, papers etc in the safe, watches on the wrist or on a winder.

lilsweetie · 31 March 2019, 01:34 PM

No, they are all safely stored away.

BNA/LION · 31 March 2019, 03:08 PM

Nope! I keep them just in case I want to sell one someday. Best to have them for the future if needed.

rambo99 · 31 March 2019, 03:47 PM

yes, i do.

Muxi · 31 March 2019, 04:22 PM

I use Everest watch rolls

SS Oyster · 31 March 2019, 05:27 PM

I don’t use them for anything. They sit in the closet.

I use all my watch boxes

They fill an empty space in a cupboard.
