Small Casebudi arrived today.....

Just opened up Casebudis new Small watch case. I must say for the price I am pretty impressed with the quality. Imo it matches the quality of the large Oakley vault that I have.

Watch fits safe and secure.

Here's some shots...

I like them but I wear my DJ everywhere I go so I just don't see the need.

Glad you're happy with it, tho...

I use my Oakley Small Watch Vault when traveling -- especially during TSA checkpoints.

The original Casebudi was for ear buds and actually works really well for small ladies' watches.

The Small Casebudi admirably handles my 40 mm watches. I need the large Oakley when going over 40 mm.

The cigar smell is still my favorite.

With 40mm Rolex watches like the sub you just have to press it hard together when zipping it up. The crown makes a permanent impression in the top of my small case but at the same time the watch is very secure.

I can run my fingertip over the closed case and clearly feel the crown through the case.

So maybe a little too snug but absolutely no rattle. I can shake and throw the case but the watch don't move one bit, it's held reeeealy tight in place.
