Interesting way of keeping your watches safe. Unless you have a super high end piece, wouldn't you just leave it at home at a safety deposit box? Don't get met wrong, if I own a Patek 1518, hell yeah it's going into the bank. Will get insurance for it as well.

laundry bag between towels

if a thief break in, i don't think he has time or interest looking at my laundry bag

drawers, boxes, safes are all thief priority target

Good idea! Perhaps I should keep them together with children's clothes!

I buy a bank to keep my watch
less expensive one I will just dig a hole under the lamp post to buried them. It's quite safe at night as it's very bright under the lamp post at night.

Its better to be safe than never BUT

When you send them to the safe deposit box in the bank you can't admire and try on it everyday.  So would it defeat the purpose of enjoying the masterpiece?

So how to manage this? Safe but cannot enjoy the admiration. Want to talk to, touch and feel the masterpiece everyday but not safe.

Perhaps stay in a bank

Safe deposit box is the safest place to store watches and jewelry. I rather not be able to admire it every night than to risk a break in and then loose all.

In the watch box! But if you're talking about security purposes, my colleague keeps her grandmother's Patek Phillipe in the bank :)

what is the purpose of buying the watch if you keep it at bank and not be able to wear? I rather keep cash at bank.

Wooden boxes is the best but need more space if you want to hide that boxes. Is it safe to mix all the automatic watches in one  wooden box (without the pillow) and put each one in a small plastic bag to avoid scratch? I kind to separate my quartz watches to automatic watches.

Keep it at the bank safe deposit box would be the best bet and keep one or two handy for daily use.
