where do you store your watch when your not wearing it?

I was looking into purchasing a mens valet which is essentially a mens jewelry or place to put your valuables or accessories. Do you guys have any or good ideas ?

No probs Rob I'm sure most questions have been asked dozens of time before, nothing new under the sun as they say, I suppose we're all just re-hashing the same old stuff, good though ain't it


Mine live on the winder when they're not on my wrist

I have a small jewerly valey in my clothes closet. It doesn't see much storeage as I wear mine each day.

I place it in one of the two watch slots overnight til the sun rises on my fair city and I attack the day with my Rolex at my side.

WHAT? You guys wear the ROLEXes? What about the SCRATCHES???

This is where I store them .... in a yellow submarine that goes inside a hidden floor safe, guarded by 2 ferocious German Shepherds ... chances of a theft: pretty darn low....

Winder for the watch on wrist time rotation, and either in the Wolf Design cases, or on a microfiber cloth.

A watch box!

Purchased a 5 watch-watch box about a year ago. I finally sold enough watches that I can now fit ALL of my watches in it.
I now have to keep my collection at 5 or below.(So says my wife)

I keep them all in a big gun safe (right next to the guns). I find that a five foot high safe offers excellent security, good fire protection, and lots of room for watches, boxes, and documents. And guns.

Cheers,

Chris

Whenever I don't wear my Rolex, I just keep it on top of the dresser.

In save box probably. Or maybe in the rolex box itself and lock it inside my drawer.
