How do you take care of watches you don't use?

How do you take care of watches you don't use?

I've recently received two watches, so I can't wear both at the same time.
What do you do to keep your movement alive and stable when you don't wear it?

I guess letting the power consumption empty and re-wind it isn't good for the watch?

Please tell me what I can do to keep my watch healthy :D
Maybe recommendation of what I should buy to store the watch in?

Buy a watchbox and put them in. The one you don't use stays in and the other you wear it.

Two watches and this question arises? Keep the collection growing and enjoy em all!

Fuck :facepalm:

I can't believe I didn't think of that!

It sounds a lot more practical them warm goats milk.

Thank goodness this forum is here, I don't know what I'd do without this font of essential information.

On a separate note, last Christmas I was given these strange cotton tubes that have an opening at one end. Someone said they're called socks and they're for my feet. Does anyone know what I'm supposed to do with them? Thanks in advance.

I think white tube things are storage bins for the unworn watches while you are inspecting the goat's virginity. I'd hate for you to loose your watch during the inspection process.

Those are to be used on the more than elbow deep ones...
