Collection so far & watch box.. What do you think?

Here is my collection so far. Only been into watches for 3 years growing my knowledge everyday. Bought my first watch (Pam 359) when i was 25 wore that for 3 years before deciding that i wanted to start a watch collection. Bought my last 3 watches in the last year or so.

I was just laying my watches down on my safe and decided that i wanted to get a watch box that would fit in the safe and keep my watches from banging into each other.

After much searching. I saw a watch box made out of a pelican case. Right away knew this was the type of box i wanted.

I did the same thing Brandon...like me, you are going to find out that you will be needing a bigger box as the collection grows

Cheers buddy

That is such a sweet and diverse collection! That AP on the bracelet looks incredible!!! I love the case as well, how does it work? Do you have to cut out the spots in the foam?

Thats a nice box. Did you buy those inserts? Did you buy them? Im just using the foam that i cut out.

Hopefully i can buy a bigger box soon. Girlfriend will leave me if i get another watch but its worth it.

Yes. I went to the pelican website to choose a size of box i wanted. Wanted something small enough to fit in my safe and to hold 4 watches.

Then i cut out the foam and used the foam cutouts as the padding to put the bracelets around.

Yes Brandon, I bought the "pillows" on eBay for the slots. Way better fit vs. the removed foam.

Its very nice. And small enough that i could just throw in a carry on and go. Watches don't move at all.

Good for 4 watches. If you need something bigger refer to the pelicans website to see different sizes.
