Mmm, I don't know, generally when I travel, I just put two or three ankle socks inside each other and put my watch in there. That's always worked for me.

Same approach here, but I fear for a mistake. I have learnt already that doing non-obvious things is asking for accidents.

Travel solutions for watches? 🤔.. Wear a G-Shock square and then you don't need to buy a roll and travel with another watch, as all your needs will be covered 😉👍

I always use the Dan Henry roll. Place for 3 watches, I only need 2 watches and use the middle part for extra strap, screwdriver, springbars. It's perfect!

My only critique is it uses velcro instead of a buckle.

Hemel’s aesthetics never disappoints. This watch roll is no exception. Looking forward to that review. There is an empty slot in my watch box for one of their pieces! Thank you for another wonderful video. O&U!!

TGV, nice video. Question: what experience do you have with Cuervo Y Sobrinos watches? Would you mind giving us review of that brand...?

I try to take only two watches when I travel or one watch and two straps. When I take two watches, I use the travel case I got when I bought my IWC Big Pilot. It's small but sturdy and has a pillow for the watch. It fits in my carry on bag when I fly too.

Great vid TGV. I’m really happy about your cooperation with watchbox because it opened my eyes to some other guys in “the game”. Loving Tim’s content! Got the app, and check it frequently to see what you have on offer over there. All the best.

Personally, I only carry one extra watch when I travel, and I used a Pelican 1010 case with some foam. It's complete overkill, but it keeps me worryfree.

Happy Friday TGV! I love leather watch rolls. Once I got one, never use anything else. I carry between 3 to 4 watches depending on destination and/or length of travel. Gotta go for this one though, the way you describe it I’ve gotta get my hands on one. 😁 Cheers 🥂

Curious...have you reviewed a Zelos yet on the channel? I dont recall seeing one. Only ask as I recently ordered my first Zelos, a bronze case blue dial Swordfish that was just released. Supposed to come in a nice presentation box and include a watch roll.

i highly recommend the watch service cases you can find on ebay for very cheap (under $20). they house just a couple of watches, but are branded with the big names (if you want branding) and of a high quality.

Micro brands are always looking for an edge and finally they have figured out nobody gives a rats a** about yet another box that sits on the shelf until you flip the watch. Nodus ships with a clean simple 2 watch denim pouch and snap strap. Helson's are shipping with a 4 watch roll similar to the Hemel but with the addition of a 5th slender pocket for tools. Such a simple gesture that reinforces the brand by bringing additional value.

I recently bought the Wolf Roll for $60 and I love it for my watches

I've been needing to get a case for my 1 watch for travel... And of course to leave room for expansion ;) This is the perfect balance between budget and quality, cheers TGV! Spencer

Nice watch roll. Love the Velcro rather than a buckle. A pocket for a spring bar tool would have been nice but the quality of the leather is great.

Amazing looking quality leather, that looks as soft as velvet. Thanks Tristan.

Thank you so much for the always informative content! Being a watch aficionado is amazing, especially when you have a great influencer like you. Being 17 is a little hard to buy the masterpieces we dream of, but thanks to your channel I found great alternatives and amazing brands like seiko and tissot that offer an amazing value for the money. Thank you for the videos, I always find them very interesting and I love the attention to detail these watches carry with them and how you very carefully describe every aspect of the watch, by far my favourite horology channel. Much love and keep up the amazing work, I look up to you..

Hi again gentry. Can u help me with this topic please. I bought a watch with an eta 2824-2 elabore movement that says automatic and manual wind. But threads on the net says u should not manual wind an eta 2824-2 or u can damage the movement. Is this tru. Can u or anyone help me with this. Thanks.

Very useful video...I realy dont have a traveling case or cases..I usually put them in their original boxes..not very practical i must say.. I realy like the shockcase..there is a 2 and 3 slot versions.. great video as well..

What's the pen you got there TGV?

was looking for a good one of these when I "had" a small collection, now down to one watch, its always on wrist!

I love my new Graham Fowler original canvas Marine Nationale watch roll, as seen on the cover of the watchistry book of the same name. Another British expatriate living in NYC, his designs are military inspired and pure class, if I may say so myself... The watch roll itself holds six watches, so my entire collection of tool watches, plus one on the wrist. Perfect for travel and daily use, I love it!

I have so many cases of all of types & proces for different purposes. But it I am doing a 30 day trip, my LV is best box that I take with me as I take all the best conversation pieces. I do love everything Hemmel though, he does an amazing job & produces quality products.

I love that beautiful leather smell...like Connolly hide in a Bentley. Great eye opener on a nice roll. Stuart 👍

My dan henry came with one

Nice case, I would consider buying one.

Umm excuse sir what are your thoughts on drag kids?

Does it come w inserts so that you don’t get metal on metal w/watches on a bracelet?

Lol “bung it in your pocket”. What?? Can’t see myself traveling with more than two watches so that zippered travel case it’s perfect! Really enjoy the accessory vids. Thanks for stepping out of the box a little. No pun intended.

I watch your channel often and enjoy it, very entertaining and informative. a quick question, your opinion on nato straps from the nato strap co.

Another top quality review! I do wish you’d do more of this type of thing, cases, bags, clothing, knives and all the great things you used to bring us, don’t get me wrong the watch content has be sublime of late, I just liked the variety you used to bring us

Great review! You did mention that it could be pricey but it does pay off with quality, hands down. Can you also suggest an even more affordable alternative watch roll, if you ever come across one?

I have one of the cheaper 8 slot ones from Amazon that you mentioned. I struggle to fit some of my watches in the slots!

My wrists are quite small but I don't believe a watch can be too big or too small. I believe you should wear what you want.

love my Wolf leather watch roll

Hey TGV, I would like to hear your take on department store watch selections. Examples being buying at fossil, Kohls, Macy's etc. Since this will be a very common place most run into watches. Things like what to avoid, look out for and value for money? A buying guide would be awesome, thank you.

Good evening TGV, thank you for covering this question. Just recently I was facing the same quest 😉 when I wanted to take three watches on holiday. As a "Lifehack" I endet up using this padded pouches that lavalier mics come in as travel bags for my two watches I haven't had ob the wrist. I have them lying around here in some numbers, but one can grab them also for small money on the used market. Sound companys who own a greater Stock of mics often store their mics in flight cases and have no use for the the pouches, so the sell them on eBay. I think it's okay to put my Seikos in a pouch labelled Sennheiser 😉 Best regards, have a good one!

That shockcase is a replica of the Oakley vault case (oakley calls their sunglasses/watch case 'vault'). But I guess they don't have a patent on it since I have seen it a lot with different logos slapped on it.

Would it be possible for you to review a Helm Khuraburi? Interesting looking dive watch, recently released. Thanks!

ordered one of the rolls after finding it in EU. IT´s watch coolness in essence IMHO. And the velcro bit is actually a major selling point for me; nothing will break there. looking forward to going on the road with it. Never take more than two xtra watches, so plenty of room for tools too.

I’m having huge issues trying to get my watch collection back from the USA to the UK ... I was fine taking them in my hold luggage but now I’m back and trying to get them from the USA I cannot have them sent by shipping companies they state watches and batteries are banned from being shipped USA to UK and these rules have been in force since 2013 .... all companies dhl and ups to fed ex won’t touch my collection... I feel resigned too loosing all 20 or so watches no matter the value cheap or more valuable ... can you recommend or assist with advice ?

Would be nice to maybe have a video on how you travel with your watches. I have read articles that mention to pack the watch roll in carry-on luggage. But do you guys worry that someone might open your bag or take your whole bag if its in the overhead compartment? Do you perhaps put the watch roll with you in the seat pocket?

Hi tgv, What is your opinion on Maurice larciox watches ? Greetings from the black forest

Hello. I appreciate your passion. I only got into watches recently. I collect coins and some other coin collector that also collects vintage watches showed his watches collection. Never thought watches are so interesting. I bought Soviet Raketa watch and Roamer from 1960. Then realised I should not wear them every day. So started researching what should I buy, that is how I found your channel few days ago and spend almost all my free time watching your videos. Also in my opinion Arnold & Son DSTB is one of the best looking watches ever. Also, maybe you could make video about Soviet/Russian watches in future? I think they deserve some attention from historical point of view. Keep the good work!

Hello, absolutely love your channel, but could you make a video about watch cases/boxes for home use please ? Thank you!

Not into taking more two watches away with me on a trip, too much of a security issue.

How is your pencil collection going?

Awesome and informative video, thanks TGV! For me personally the reviewed Hemel watch roll is way too expensive. My whole watch collection is way too cheap (each piece below €400) to deserve such a luxory kind of storage. Plus I don´t mind a few scratches because they give a watch case some character.

I've been thinking a Submariner "No Date" would be my grail watch, but recently I've been thinking the BlancPain Fifty Fathoms may be the one FTW! Something a little more unique.

Nice watch roll for the price! Thanks for the info. Honestly though, when I travel I only take one wristwatch with me cause I'm a bit paranoid and don't trust the TSA, foreign Customs, or hotel staff. I have an upcoming travel to London and I'm taking my 20 year old Tag 2000 quartz movement with me cause I don't want to take chance with my IWC Portofino 150th Anniversary Edition which is my daily watch for work.
