Anyone have recommendations for watch storage? My wife gave me an engraved 10-watch display box* awhile ago and it's mostly full. I also put a lot of things on top of it, like my wallet, my vintage pocket watch from Prague, a vintage compass she gave me, and my "daily" watch (so I don't have to dig it out every day). I'll need to keep what she gave me, but I want something that cleans up my nightstand a bit. I think anything that has a liftable lid is a no go, because I'll want to keep some things on display on top.

All of the boxes I am using at the moment have liftable lids similar to yours, and I have a Heiden double watch winder that I can't really put anything on top of because it's angled. Frankly from what I can tell most watch specific boxes with pillows have that kind of lid. What you might be able to find is something like my wife found for her jewelry which is basically just a tray with soft felt lining. You can find them segmented into sections or wide open like this one:

You would just keep that in one of your drawers. Now that I think about it, I have a segmented one my wife gave me that I keep in one of my drawers, I just don't keep my watches in it. I've got my boxes all full and a few that I have in the current rotation just randomly sitting around my office on soft sunglass pouches :lol: :lol:
