Title: Watch case / box
Post by: pugs16 on January 19, 2011, 07:18:15 AM
Guys, I am looking for a watch box which can hold 8 - 10 large watches. Prefer full solid lid as I do want display glass/plastic. Anyone have any ideas where I can find one?

FYI, I already have a small box (holds 5) from Nazri.

There seems to be a lot of people in WUS using Pelican cases - anyone in the forum having the same idea?

I was hunting for a box in Sg Wang yesterday. I ended up buying a watch instead  ;D - the Seiko SRP043k1 aka spork

Hi maximillian,

Was at Sg Wang plaza yesterday...at the shop you mentioned. The boxes are cheap but not to my liking. They didn;t have full wood lid.

Plenty on ebay but price + shipping is high (especially shipping since these box aren't light).

Hey Max,

I didn't pay retail (MRSP) price....got it for less than rm1k. The metal bracelet alone cost approx rm200 (online) but I was never interested in a rubber strap so I did not check price for the SRP043K2 (rubber). Your friends price sounds about right...maybe even cheaper

Mind to PM me which shop?

Quality wooden watch box are quite expensive in Malaysia. I went to a few watch shops, and the cost of the good quality wooden box were RM700 upwards. I have yet to find a shop that sells quality wooden watch box less than RM300.

Been to Tang's .... both Empire and Gardens has it. Brand is Mitch & March or something like that. Nice, good quality = nice + good price (by this I mean high...very high). If not mistaken nothing below RM600 at least.

Or this but in better quality leather (this one is faux leather) -

I prefer something that I can lay the watches flat. Don't want those with the little cushions push into cubby holes

Got this from Amazon - a pelican case that can fit 8 super-sized watches (a foot and an half wide)

(http://i1262.photobucket.com/albums/ii604/meoramri/Watch%20tools/Invicta%208-slot%20hard%20plastic%20watchbox/PC070618.jpg) (http://s1262.photobucket.com/user/meoramri/media/Watch%20tools/Invicta%208-slot%20hard%20plastic%20watchbox/PC070618.jpg.html)

Only problem is the huge invicta brand in white lettering on the front of the box (<RM300)

Problem with this is if you have a watch on a bracelet, it will scratch up your caseback.

There is a centre divider. See the flip at the top part of the upper half. No issue of banging.

 When the case is shut, the middle divider creates a slight compression that keeps everything stable. When i want to power up a lot of my autos, i use  the bag to swing. Good exercise.

I have pelican from my B&R. Problem with them is that the latch is hard to use, and noisy.
