    Not much of a fan. They wasted the tray and I prefer my watches to be displayed vertically rather than on it's side. It looks unfinished as well, like some guy made it during a woodshop class and as you mentioned, it's not padding, just bare wood. At $89, it is priced fairly.

    Looks very nice and the price is right in line. As a mid-level wood worker this gave me inspiration and ideas for improvements, framed and hinged top and front, leather on the where the watch(es) will sit, for some padding and maybe 1 or 2 others things along the way. We will see how it comes together organically. But this is very nice there are a lot of other options not made nearly as well for the same money. Thanks for another great review. Keep up the good work with the channel, and the church.

    The wood finishing looks really fancy! I get that it's not practical to have it stored upright. It's nice that your watches here are all similar in size so it's nice to see a symmetrical display. For me though, I prefer to keep my watches out of sight and locked so I wouldn't get a watch box display.

    Wow! Brother, you and I are at the same mile marker in our journey. The most expensive watches I own all retail between $700 and $1000, but I waited to get ALL three when discounts were available, and paid between $500 and $650 for them. Mine are: Hamilton Jazzmaster Viewmatic, Tissot Silicium and Bulova Sinatra Fly me to the Moon. I know how to admire and appreciate an Omega and a Tudor...but I have not yet made a decision to use my credit cards for my hobby, so I do not yet own them. My grail is a Rolex Air King...but that is WAY down this road from where I am currently travelling.

    Side ways is pretty cool, everyone does vertical. Would like a padding so the watches don’t rest on a hard wood. Maybe an area tinted to raise the glass, so you don’t smudge the glass. Pretty good for the price though.

    Interesting, but a ‘miss’ for me: no hinge to the lid is an inconvenience, the handle on the drawer isn’t horizontal, there should be a soft base to rest the watches on (leather/velvet). Like another commenter said, I prefer a vertical presentation of the watches, so even with some improvements, it wouldn’t appeal…Good work, as ever, with the review! Love the Hamilton!

    I was looking for a protective case for my solar / ecodrive watches. To protect them from dust or whatever, and keep the light reaching them. It won't be that one, the orientation of the dial is not ideal, hinges for the top could improve it, and maybe a softer material than wood where the watch seats....

    Great video. Thanks Dave. If we actually paid pounds at the exchange rate for dollars I would consider it but it seems that whatever an item is in US dollars we would pay in GBP. Now almost 90 Great British Pounds makes it less attractive, bearing in mind the plexiglass and any possible issues with that. I can see a game possibility here though with maybe Jody and Shane's choices of what to put in it to a certain value, and whose display looks the best. 👍🙏🙇

  • @gimbydude491
    @gimbydude4913 жыл бұрын

    Definitely a different look to watch display/storage. Once that plexiglass gets scratched, it will ruin the overall look, so that would be a worry for me. Anyway, I like my $40 watch boxes that display/store 10 watches and look great, so this one, although different, is not for me. Thanks for the review though!!

    Wasn't the Bulova Lunar Pilot your most expensive watch? It didn't even made the top 5. I like the box though it doesn't seem practical. As someone mentioned, padding would be nice, and overall I believe it fits best to display your "safe queen" pieces (ones you do not use often or would not risk into the outside world)

  • @ozludo
    @ozludo3 жыл бұрын

    It's kinda reminiscent of either a Lego block or a screw terminal. Or possibly one of those nixie tube clock, with the lamps missing. Neither observation is meant as a criticism - the box simply reminds me very strongly of other things. It has some class. I'd be worried that over time the top wooden surface might get scuffed by my watches, rather than the other way around. But it looks pretty good. Solar watches should charge fine inside. Rating: 3/5. Not bad.

To be truthful, I feel that the price on your display case is a little high. Of course I have chosen to as yourself keep the eye simple and not go with luxury priced watches.....

    When on wrist your watch spends most of the time in the vertical position. It’s not going to effect it negatively. But a watch will run differently depending on the position it’s in. It’s why you take readings in multiple positions on a timegrapher.
