I really like that and also that it's in a drawerDickchins wrote: ↑Mon Nov 02, 2020 10:03 am
As im a lazy git, i prefer to have mine wound for me at all times in this. Got a couple of others but they are single and a double winder seperate.
Wasnt dear and runs quiet enough for it to live on the bedroom drawers and not disturb my ever decreasing sleep
I have a 12 watch version of this. It's broken, so it operates purely as a display/storage box!
^ Just checked it out on amazon.ca and totally agree that's fantastic looking , especially at that price point!

When I saw it advertised I thought it looked fantastic, its reviews were frankly stellar. The quality looked amazing, and I thought it looked very classy. Most incredible of all, I got it for £31.99...yes, you did read that right. Looking at it in situ now, on my bookcase, if you told me it was £200 worth I wouldn't doubt you for a minute.

Some specs: It's pretty much 19.5cm square and 10cm deep with the lid closed. It's not lockable but has an extremely well made press fastening contained under the branded flap on the front of the box. The hinges are really well made and screwed in to place exactingly. Though not made of leather, it has faux-type leather finish that looks very much like the real thing. There are six equally sized compartments that will comfortably take watches up to 45mm diameter. The six cushions are equally well finished, and would compress allowing smaller straps to be tightened around them. The inside of the lid is padded with the 'VLANDO' branding, which actually only serves to add to the feeling of overall quality (I had thought it might look cheap). It has a lovely heft and weight when empty, I think it's about a kilo.
I am currently using it to display my Elliot Brown watches and have three spare compartments. I have an idea of what I'd like to eventually fill those compartments, but hey...that's for another time. I am blown away by this product and thought it only right I air it on this forum, I'd like others to be able to share in my good fortune. This box will make the best of a watch costing £50, and would not look out of place housing Patek's or Rolex's. I'm seeing my watches in a completely different light right now, can there be any higher praise.
BTW, as well as coming in black it is available in a teal-type blue with a cream interior.

Big thank you for the heads up on this box Des. I've now returned the Wolf box I had for my birthday and bought one of these instead.strapline wrote: ↑Mon Nov 09, 2020 4:10 pm Today a watch box that I found and purchased on Amazon arrived.

Great news Ryan, I'm really pleased you're chuffed with it too. The quality is remarkable, outstanding fit and finish. Your watches look superb in it.StrappedUp wrote: ↑Fri Nov 27, 2020 8:08 pmBig thank you for the heads up on this box Des.

Pillows compress enough to fit my tiny sized bracelets and the quality is brilliant considering the small outlay.
Anyone looking for a small(ish) box, don't hesitate ordering one of these.
