Thanks for the info Fakemaster. I also happen to be in the market for a reasonably priced watch box…. now that I have run out of room in my Underwood box. http://www.pianki.com/Underwood-Jewelry-and-Watch-Winder-Safe--40-Module-Unit_p_2381.html

:shock: Wow. And that is the one you take with you on travels - we should see the stationary one you have at home...

I've bought a couple of cases on Ebay from turtlecreation (that's the seller name also). I bought a rosewood box that holds 10 for $35 inc. shipping and a walnut double decker that holds 20 for $50 inc. shipping. Very nice quality inside and out.
85,000 dollars?? I hope that's new Zealand dollars
A note on acetimer, I ordered from them and the shipping has been slow. I think they got it sorted though. He seemed to forget my order, but an email got it taken care of.

Yep, I've also bought a couple from turtlecreation. I'm not so fond of wooden boxes or boxes with see-through lids, though. I prefer discrete boxes that fit in my underwear drawer and that do not draw my wife's attention.
The ones I bought look like this. Black faux leather with white stitching. Good quality though.

Since you asked... I have an Orbita Bergamo in my study. http://valetstand.com/wawidicabe40.html It's a little less conspicuous. :wink:

Nice! Can't go wrong with an Orbita Bergamo. Well, can't go anywhere really. Hey, they are 25% off today! :shock: I'm pulling the trigger right away.
I like their slogan, "Affordable solutions for your affluent lifestyle". Yep, that's me alright!

Well done sir.
YEAH! The Orbita is cheap! But can't resist the charm of the Underwood. Buying one right now. Wonder if they accept paypal.... :shock:
I showed my wife the orbita...she said it would be cheaper to hire people at minimum wage to stand in my closet and keep my watches moving.
I might have to consider that option as well Rotten. Any website where I can get prices from? [smilie=angel10.gif]
I have an AceTimer in my closet. Looks good, but even better - works perfectly! It's quiet and it was cheap. Winds 8, holds 10 more. I was planning on buying a 2nd one in the near future, but have put more watches and cases on hold for a while due to current economic conditions.
Buy what you like and can afford. I care more about function than appearance, because I don't keep my watches out for public display. I only show my watch collection to a very few close friends and family. No one else needs to know how many I own, what brands they are, which are reps vs. gens, etc.
And NEVER keep your display case near a window! Big Brother is watching, you know!!! :evil:

I think you can find nice watchboxes here:

I have ordered a Anchor watch box from Strap Culture and they have nice looking straps too

Trouble for me is I'm SICK AND TIRED of watchboxes that hold only 20 pieces. I need something that holds either 40, 60, 80 or even 100 pieces in one unit. I'm building a collection of Ace Timer Oak Finish 20-watch boxes very soon, which sucks coz it's so darn hard to organise things around here.
Still like this one.
