I am thinking maybe if I vaccum seal it in a bag i.e. remove air - maybe the watch, paperwork, Box etc... would not diminish as much. Should I ever want to sell it in 30 years.... It would be almost as if it was NOS.
Then I think it's too much work and not to worry about it either way...

If you go to Costco or any other good department store you can get the "Foodsaver" brand vacuum seal freezer baggers..
This is so easy, you can vacuum seal your watch every night if you want, or at least for the weekend if it's off your wrist....
You can seal up all that paperwork and those unsightly boxes, put them in cold storage and they will look like brand new in a half century when your heirs decide to sell all your stuff after they put you in a "Home"..
I'll bet that if you just change the name on one of these to "Watchsaver", there's money to be made..........
