Just a pain if you want to wear the ones in the middle....:bilmem:

I made a little tree out of doweling with a branch for each watch. Looks like Christmas! :yesnod:

Not bad. What is that cylinder made of?large wooden dowl and black pipe foam. Covered it with a wide black ribbon then capped it all with 11/2 in pipe ends.

Not really. It unhooks easily from the ends. I usually pick my watch and clothes out th night before work so I don't waste time in the mornings :seasix:

I cannot wear a watch... all bands tried give me a rash underneath. Nice work though!

I've had Breitngs and Rolexs. I'd rather have 20 cheaper nice watches that 1 of the others now.

How many watches can one man wear?

Are you really Fidel Castro?

My $10.00 Casios are not worthy of a holder that costs $10.00. :D

What does the rubber-band do?its one of those you wear on your wrist. It's from when we did that heart walk.

Looks good and functional, too. Serious question - did you always collect watches or did you take up an interest in it after you got in the car business? I don't know why, but lots of people in that business collect watches. My son-in-law has about 25 of them, I think.

Ok, be honest now. The watch holder vibrates doesn't it?

I have at least a dozen. Most under $200.00 and none over $500 paid although some of these companies put ridiculous MSRP prices on their stuff.
Seriously...who would pay the same for an Invicta at their "retail price" as an Omega?

What I need is a holder that will keep my automatics wound up without wearing them daily. It's always a pain to shake them and set them when you want to wear one. :toetap:

I was born with my watch holder as I only have the one watch. :D

I guess I could wear up to three if I had to. :leaving:

Well 1 came from JoeBuck, he was tired of it. 1 came from a life long friend that' has 2 stores. My 2 favs came from Shopgoodwill.com and another is a family vintage piece. May be 57 years. :D
