How do you guys store your Rolexes??
I was curious whether people have a multiple watch case for your collections or do you just put them in their original Rolex boxes and take them out when you want to wear them??
I'm thinking of getting one so I don't have to take them in and out of their original box. I think this will also help keep the box nice and clean. One thing I'm worried about these cases is whether the padding on some will make swirly marks or scratches on the watch?? What kind of watch case do you guys use?? Please state the pros and cons of the kind you have... Many thanks |

I have a watch box that hold six watches. Great/soft inner lining, I opted for leather instead of wooden for lighter weight.

I have a Hillwoood burl veneer vg420 wooden box. It hold 12 watches and is excellent. No down sides at all. The vg419 is very good if you only want to store 6 watches. I like to keep the "family" all together for easy access and it is great to see them all lined up. I like to keep my original boxes totally mint and so rarely access them after I have gleaned every bit of information from the various booklets!

I put in the case, not a winder.
I prefer to wind it manually and look at the dial. I hv 2 more rooms on the 2nd case for New Ceramic Sub and New Ceramic Green Sub
