Three Watch Leather Travel Roll – $45.00
It’ll be here before you know it. So if you’re in need of a few ideas on what to give (or in some cases, what to put on your own list) this year, this is the place to be for the next couple weeks. Our annual 12 days of Dappered covers one item each week-day between now and December 20th. That’ll leave some time for shipping if you’re the last minute type. All will be reasonably affordable. See the growing archive here.
Those of us who like both: A. Watches, and B. Short to medium length trips out of town, are usually left shoving a second or third watch down in our extra pair of shoes packed in our weekend bag. That works, but it’s not real good for the watch. Probably not so hot for your shoes either.
It’s a complete luxury, but having a traveling case for your spare watch(es) is (are) awfully nice (really nice) to have. And if a watch lover doesn’t have one, it’s an awfully nice gift to give.
They come in more than a few varieties of shapes, colors, and price points. Taking four watches with you (three in the case, one on the wrist) is probably way over the top, but he’ll thank you every time he’s getting ready to jet off somewhere new.
From Left: Two Watch Case – $43.48
Love the blog and you’re usually spot-on. On this one though, maybe not.
I’m a watch lover and a frequent traveler- I’m the person who saw Up In the Air and got mad about all they got wrong about frequent flyers.
With that said, I am not a fan of watch luggage- I have yet to see a piece that is a) well-done and b) not bulky.
When I travel, I usually bring 1-2 watches with me (both swiss automatics). I do usually store the spare in a pocket in my luggage. I’ve never had a problem with this system.
Again, love the blog. Cheers!
Normally when I travel I bring 1 watch that will work for the entire trip (Invicta 8926 or Android Silverjet), when I have brought multiple watches, I stick them in my shoes (minus the tree’s w/ my extra socks….
Thanks for the kind words. I’m not a frequent traveler, although I like to get out of town every so often. Been wanting something like this for myself for awhile, so, while it might not be up your alley, it might be for others.
Sticking a ticking watch in your shoes may cause a hold-up at the X-ray machine at the airport. Careful. Haha.
I need one of these. I asked for a small watch case for Christmas, but one of these two watch travel cases would be nice as well. My Seiko 5 on a leather strap is my daily wearer but I try to bring along a beater as well, for all the outdoor shenanigans I tend to get up to while on break or vacation.
I will say that watches are the one thing that I splurge on (Rolex, Breitling, Panerai), and I rather enjoy switching them out while I travel. As such, a watch case is a must for me. I own the 2 watch case above, and I love it. It keeps the watches protected because of the padded center and inner lining, and its secure as well because of the zipper. I would not want buttons holding down my watches, as they can open up rather easily, or belt straps due to the difficulty of opening the case. My two cents.
I came here for coffins. That’s what the thumbnail looked led me to believe.
