The best watch box to store watches

In addition to a watch winder, a watch box, or watch case, is the most popular watch accessory. Where a watch winder excites automatic watches, a watch box is intended to store watches safely. This is not only useful because you have all the watches together, but it is also safe because your watches are safely stored in a watch box that protects them.

Watch boxes come in all shapes and sizes. You have models made of wood, leather or aluminum. The style or design can be modern or classic. In terms of capacity, there is a lot of choice. There are watch boxes for one watch (travel case), but also for two, three, four, six, eight and ten watches. If you really are a watch enthusiast and you have a lot of watches, there are also watch boxes for, for example, 12, 16, 20 or even 24 watches.

What should you pay attention to when buying a watch box?

When you want to buy a watch box, you want at least enough capacity for all your watches. You prefer to buy a box that is a bit too big than a box that is too small for your collection. Otherwise, you will soon have to buy another watch box. In addition, we advise you to buy a watch box that is made of solid materials. A wooden or leather watch box is a great choice. Wooden watch boxes are more likely to be scratched and damaged because they are usually painted. However, such a watch box does have a more luxurious appearance. A leather watch box has the advantage that it is lighter and also has a beautiful natural look. Especially when you wear a lot of watches with leather watch straps, storing your watches in a leather watch box is a good choice.

One of the most important aspects is that the watch box offers good space for your watches. Not only the diameter of the cushions and storage compartments plays a role, also the height. With enough space, the watch does not touch any part of the watch box, except of course the cushion on which the watch is attached. This prevents damage to the watch. Of course also because the inside of a good watch box must always be covered with soft fabric. As a result, the watches are always protected and do not run any risks or damage.

There are watch boxes with a closed top where you have no view of the watches in it. There are also watch boxes with a glass top so that you can see the watches in them. Both types of watch boxes have advantages and disadvantages. One wants his or her watches to be invisible, while the other likes to look at his or her watches through the glass top. There is also a distinction between watch boxes with and without a lock. These locks are not intended to prevent theft. After all, the watch box is easy to carry in its entirety. The locks are intended to keep the watches out of reach of children and/or pets. If you want to quickly grab a watch every day to wear, it is best to choose a watch box without a lock.

Watch boxes come in all kinds of price ranges. A good watch box quickly starts at 50.00 euro, but the price depends on the material, capacity and brand. Watch boxes from the Dutch brand Benson have an excellent reputation. The brand offers models of wood but also of leather. Especially the wooden Benson Black Series watch boxes are beautiful and offer all the luxury that a watch enthusiast would like to see. In addition, these boxes offer enough space for larger watches and you can choose from models for 8, 12 and 16 watches. In addition, the boxes are available in black, white, carbon fiber and macassar. This means that you will always find the right watch box for your watch collection.
