How do you keep your watch safe and sound when it isn't on your wrist?
Lets see those Travel Cases and Winders! :lingsrock:

I'm poor, I don't have a travel case or watch winders.
And there's no many options in my country like 100box watchwinders.
Only a few jewelries sell watchwinders and they are very expensive.
And I don't buy on ebay for the same reason, I'm poor and don't have a credit card or paypal account. :cry:
But if someone wants to give me a watchwinder (for 8 or 9 watches, 6 is ok) PM me and I'll give you my address. (I don't care if it's a cheap chinese winder)

I feel like the travel case that comes with the 'Lings is perfect for what I need. If I am out of town for a weekend I will have one on my wrist and one in the case.

Im not a fan of winders. I get that they keep your watch wound at all times, but the idea in general feels kind of hokie to me. The only thing I can equate it to is an electronic rotating tie rack. It seems to be excessive, and most dont look as nice as a plain watchbox.

Just my two cents

Does anyone have any man-made carrying cases that they use? I've seen one persons on here who was very creative and made a travel case out of an old amo box. THOUGHT THAT WAS PRETTY COOL! Anyone else do anything interesting like that?

Speaking of cases. Does anyone wear their watch to WORK, and then go to the GYM afterwards? If so, how do you protect the watch until you get home? When I used to wear my TAG to work, I usually wrapped it in a big SOCK and then stuffed it in my bag prior to the gym. I want to give my B4B a little better treatment if possible. hah.

I go home first, put it next to my pillow THEN go to the gym so when I come home my Ling is fully rested for to do it all again the following day! :lingsrock:
