- I wanted to share this video as many of my viewers have been asking me for advice regarding proper watch storage boxes
This is my personal watchbox and I think it offers the best features for the money
These are some of the things I think everyone should look for when choosing a watchbox
Thanks for watching.. - Jak na to + styl
Awesome deal. I'd buy one in a heartbeat.
I have a few of them myself to protect all of my watches. Beautiful case Pete!
If you like exhibition cases I can recommend rothwell cases so so much. They tick every box on the list in the video except for the first which in my opinion is a positive because I love looking at my watches even when I’m not wearing them.
Thanks Peter & Tony XXX for specs & providers! I’ll checkout the Ozy recommendations.
I’ve got my weekly watches in a cheap as AliX faux leather case, I rotate a few watches a day for work & play…
Beautiful watch box, congrats!
I've got a Buben & Zorweg watch box that I absolutely love, it's worth about the price of a Tudor but doesn't even look much better than your box. That one looks awesome for $65
Thanks Peter for your advice on this topic. Great info for beginners.
Absolutely, if someone told me these things years ago when I first started out on this journey I would not have so many trash watchboxes floating around the house today 😊😂
Mate! Thanks for showing us this gorgeous watch box! It was not even outrageously expensive. It leaves me more than a little envious! 😄
I’ve been so pleased with this Alex 👍
Beautiful!
Very nice Peter, and the dimensions are quite compact compared to a lot of other boxes i have checked out. I also would like to emphasize to anyone looking to buy their first box that you really need to get a measurement of the watch slot widths when you are looking to buy. Like you, i have some 43, 44mm watches and you need to ensure the width has sufficient clearance to avoid contact between watches. Plenty of boxes I have checked out did not seem to cater for larger watches.
Good advice Leon
Nice!
Wonderful watch box! Too bad they are no longer available because if they were, I would buy at least 2 of them. Great content Pete!
I agree
Cheers Paul
Very nice Pete... But I won't store my spare key inside the box tho... 😂
Nice! I prefer an exhibition top, but that's just me.
Great box mate, that's or sure. Ticks many boxes... (pun intended!). Currently using two wooden boxes for teabags... couldn't be happier! Made the pillows myself, glass on top for my solars and easy view/access. Liked the idea of felt under, know there are paper ones, with some spray glue i'll be done in secs, thanks. Be well mate, enjoy.
Definitely tick too many "boxes" bro..hahaha

Τον Ιούλιο θα έρθω Κρήτη, ετοίμασε ρακί και μεζεκλικια, συγλινα, κοχλιους μπουμπουριστους, κάνα καλό κουραδι ψητό, αγουρέλαιο, ξυλοκέρατα και άσε τα χαζά σου. Ίσως καταφέρω να πείσω τον λεβέντη από Αυστραλία. Τρία λιοντάρια στην Κρήτη, και όχι "δύο 🦁 λιοντάρια στον Ειρηνικό". Αν υπάρχει κώλυμα, πες το μας να το ξέρουμε.
Great video, Peter. As the owner of a watch storage company based here in Australia, I found your insights extremely valuable. This really is a great looking watch box and to get it for the price you paid is unbelievable. Nice work.
Glad it was helpful!
Wish yours were lockable!
Nice box, but keeping the spare key in it doesn`t seem the right way though 👍⌚😉
Good choice beautiful watch box l love his colour and especially the low price!!
I'm fighting for an AGAT ZLATOUST 53mm titan, a tough watch. Time to change my style, try and you Peter, "peekaboo" it's difficult style, but I like it (maybe for this).
Where is my best friend, the man from Crete, the Marvelous Stavros? I'm coming Stavros!!!
👍
They are a little pricey but if found on sale I can thoroughly recommend wolf watch boxes. I have a 10 slot box and the quality is exceptional.
Their pillows are too small for anyone who has a wrist over 7 inches. I have a wolf watch box and 7.25 inch wrists and this annoys me.
I can recommend the brand rothwell. Similar aesthetic, lower price and still very decent quality. And feature wise just perfect.
I totally get the point about the bolsters, but I also must say, this is the first example of it I've ever seen! Also, I've not seen anyone ever mention whether the underside is lined with something, but this too makes excellent sense. I have been looking for a watch box, but it has been very hard to find good ones at a decent price like this. I'm resisting buying two smaller ones, as I'd rather keep it all together (10-12 watches), and perhaps have a little drawer for some watch tools and straps etc., or a cheap beater watch. I'm not so scared of my kids, though I get your point. It's a pity you don't know where this came from exactly, as it seems thought beyond the ordinary and even the luxury went into making this case. Any recommendations from anyone?
Hey Pete, thanks for sharing this, I'm in the process of designing a box for my son. Yours looks really good, I like the compact dimensions, is there any chance you could give me the watch spacing and thickness of the walls?
No worries if not, loving the content lately.
Too easy, watch spacing is 4.5cm and the walls are just under 1cm, I measure 0.9cm
@@PeterKotsa Pete, you're a star, thanks, I'll send pics when done, it will be oak, with a blue lining, I think!
@@bobyoutube4037 brilliant, looking forward to seeing it 👍
Good video as always, but I have to say, it would have been nice if you had a recommendation that we can actually purchase today! Hopefully some enterprising watchbox company will take your recommendation and partner up with you
I am hoping that maybe someone can forward this video to current watch box manufacturers and they can possibly replicate some of the e features and add their own 👍
If you like exhibition cases I can recommend rothwell cases so so much. They tick every box on the list in the video except for the first which in my opinion is a positive because I love looking at my watches even when I’m not wearing them. And they are (imo) beautifully designed.
I think I have the 4 watch version of this box. It's amazing, I want another one too.
If you find one, let me know where you get it from..👍
Where did you get this from????@@PeterKotsa
@@Cougar139tweak eBay..years ago
How cool would it be to use cheap watches as the actual feet for the bottom of the watch box!
Peter , fabulous watch box ! question for you , what strap have you got the 556a on ?
Artem strap
Cheers
....... heavy duty bright yellow Stanley 27" 4 drawer tool chest for my regular wear watches ............ gas struts for the lid and ball bearing slides for the lined drawers , it's lockable and hard for anyone to put under their arm and walk off with ......... best of all it's fun ..........
Stanley ?
Brilliant 👍
I've had almost as many boxes as watches & there's always something that stops it being that perfect resting place.
Hi Pete, just out of curiosity, was your Longines Heritage Flagship ever reviewed on your channel? I am not sure but am looking for one but can’t find it. I want to get the Flagship for my first >$1,500 Luxury watch but can’t decide if this falls under ‘dressy’ or ‘daily-wear’ category!
Not reviewed yet
I’m trying to get around to it 😊
Do you have any retail recommendations for something similar to your custom product?
unfortunately I haven't found anything of equal value or features..
Crazy cheap, who made any money on that!! Nice box, fair play for getting it at that price 🙌
What watch is the second from the far left on the bottom row? I like the legibility of the dial.

@@PeterKotsa Thank you.
Hey Peter how do you store your watch straps?
everywhere 😂
But seriously I purchased some containers with compartments in them from a local hardware store and each compartment fits 4 straps 👍
I prefer the Wolf watchbox
Can anyone help me whether squishing the cussion with steel bracelets harmful for the bracelet or lugs?
Depends upon how tight you squish them
Generally..NO harm 👍
Peter, wich other boxes would you recommend?
I haven't been in the market for any since I purchased this, so I too would have to do my research
Its pretty hard to find a good watches box. Amazone ones are pretty crappy.
I found this company but I didn’t find any solid reviews….Glenor Co
I prefer exhibition watch box.I have one in leather for 12 watches,but its not ideal,compartments are too low and the space between pillows is too small,need to be careful to not hit the case of one watch to the other.I must look for something else
Any update on where you can get this box from
None unfortunately
Hey Peter, What's the Oris? on the top row?
I just bought it check it out: czcams.com/video/itAAy_JcuWY/video.html

What watch is that on the bottom left, the blue one?
Sinn 556i
@@PeterKotsa Thanks haven’t heard of them, a bit pricey what do you think of it? Looking to add a sky blue watch to my collection
@@aeodian I like the brand so much, that I added three to my collection.. 😊😂

What's everyone's thoughts on watch rolls vs boxes?
I like watch rolls personally for travel only, maybe a three tier
Is that a turquoise Sinn 556?
Yep 👍
Where can we find this?
I reckon China would produce something like this...
I think you might reconsider keeping your spare key inside the box... ;)
Ha
Pleaee help me with the name or link to get it.
I don't have any link or brand name for this watch box..
I build watch boxes
ela re Kotsaki
Cool to introduce us to a product that is no longer available....
The objective: what to look for in a watch case
No hinges
hidden
Nah. I prefer my custom cut foam Peli1490 case: It's lockable, waterproof, shockproof & you can drive a truck over it. But I have more watches than you. 🤷♀
Best money can buy? No. 😂
Why lock it the thief will just take the box
fI used to lock it or my kids...when they were small they would open everything 😂
