I got a new Pelican 1120 case after watching a YouTube "Torture Test" video and decided to make it a travel watch case for my 3 favorite watches - A. Panerai Radiomir Black Seal PAM287, B. Breitling Super Avenger and C. Marathon Le Grande Plongeur (or JSAR) - which IMO cover all scenarios - Dress or Dinner Watch / Evening Out with friends / Day at the Beach.

I decided to get the bright orange case from Amazon. It comes with Pluck N Pick foam - which I cut to hold the 3 watches above.

Excellent idea, and nicely done. :thumbsup:

My BR02 came in a Pelican case, maybe I should think about adapting it.

Cool, but will the egg crate top foam apply enough presure to keep the watches from slipping laterally?

Yes. In fact, sometimes I worry the pressure might be a bit too much!
