Needed a storage solution for my watches & since I only have 4 I picked this up on eBay for $7 shipped. It's actually nice, faux leather cover, snap closure, felt lined, soft sleeve for the watches. Doubles as a nice travel case.

I know, that's why I posted it. Very good value for what it is.

That's pretty cool...I aspire to own enough watches to fill something like that.

Got 'em all for under $200 on ebay. The Stauer was a gift, else I would have opted for the silver Monaco.

You've never heard of Rolexx, IVVC, Baum & Mercer, Pieget?

Nice collection.
With that type of case, I would be concerned that the watches will slide and bump into each other, scuffing the cases. That is why I personally use cases in which each watch has it's own separate pillow and slot.

However, this may or may not be an issue to you, depending on how anal-compulsive you are about such things. :)

I love bargains but I just can't stand faux leather anymore. Cloth would be better.

Thanks. The watches don't move at all when inside the case. I actually shake it from time to time to wind the watches.

Rear leather would be better but for this purpose it's negligible.
