I need a case for my GMT so I can comfortably toss it in my gym bag while I train. I gave up waiting for the Oakley small vault case and I know Casebudi has a similar product sold through amazon but they don't ship to Canada. Anybody have any other ideas for me ?

I bought the one at the very top of the list - "grey watch box beco". It is similar to the Omega one but looks like a regular sunglasses case. It is very inexpensive, but great quality and will protect your watch 10x better than the Oakley. There are other options as well and some seem quite nice albeit pricey, but you cant go wrong with the one I mentioned.

I just ended up getting a couple large oakley watch cases and i just wrap em in a rolex polish cloth, seems to work well.

Just put in a old glasses case or sock or similar bit of cloth I am sure even in a bag your watch is tough enough not to need a special box.

A regular hardshell glasses case, with a couple of cloths inside for padding, works for me. Flies under the radar, too.

Just bought a large Oakley. Works great (not that large really).

Just wear you Rolex in the gym! It's safer and cooler! (;

until you whack the crystal on something and need a $600 service....Just wrap in a sock and bury it in your gym bag...

Maybe just leave it at home when going to the gym?

Casebudi from Amazon. $12.00 & it's just as good as a Oakley case.

This, or you can use the casebudi version for same great results.

I go to the gym daily after work or whatever I'm doing that day, so leaving it at home would mean only wearing my watch in the evenings, not an option.

Amazon won't ship the Casebudi to Canada.
