WATCH BOX BUYER'S GUIDE: EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT STORAGE BOXES

POTENTIALLY THE BIGGEST CONCERN OF ANY WATCH OWNER IS KEEPING THEIR WATCH IN PERFECT CONDITION. STORAGE BOXES ARE VERY HELPFUL IN SUCH SITUATIONS.




That's why we're taking a look at everything you should consider before buying a watch box, and the most common materials used in making storage boxes to ensure you choose the best watch box possible. Let's get started!



WHAT IS A WATCH CASE?



As a first step, you should know what a watch box is. Once you have purchased a watch, the next step is to find a suitable place to store it when you are not wearing it. Thus, a watch box is a container that is designed to store your watches when you are not wearing them. This becomes especially important if you own multiple watches. Each of them is a work of art and you want to store them in the best conditions and display them accordingly. This is especially true if you own an Apple Watch. Owning a storage box for your Apple Watch can effectively protect the display from scratches and keep your Apple Watch safe.

Storage boxes can be made of different materials, but regardless of what your box is made of, it is in your best interest to have the interior lined with soft materials like velvet to protect the watch from scratches and damage. It is possible to add an additional soft insert to ensure even better protection.

What should you consider before buying a watch case?


First of all, you should consider its potential size. Depending on how big your collection is, you can choose a watch box designed for a single, a few or even several dozen watches. When choosing the best watch box, you should consider what you want the box to be. Undoubtedly, if you buy a watch box just for this purpose, you can get by with a simple box that you can put in the drawer of your dresser. However, if you like your pieces to match the interior design of your home, it would be a better idea to buy a watch box that best complements the interior design of the room where it will spend most of its time. It can add a pretty accent to the decor and also serve as a conversation starter.

Then look at the additional details of some clock boxes. The most common feature is a glass window placed on top of a watch box, so you can see your watch collection without opening the lid. Acrylic will be the cheapest and safest choice, but for a more sophisticated look to your storage box, choose a box with a real glass window. This is also a way to distinguish cheap watch boxes from high quality ones. If you want to play it safe, there is a wide selection of storage boxes with a sturdy lid.

 

After all, storage boxes can serve a variety of functions. So if you're considering an option that allows you to store not only watches, but jewelry or cufflinks as well, look for offerings that have additional drawers built in for extra storage space. Some more luxurious watch boxes also have a built-in watch winder. These automatic winding watch boxes are especially useful if you don't plan on wearing your watch every day and don't like winding it by hand.

In general, these are the most common practical aspects of a watch box, but its appearance is just as important, if not more so. So what kind of watch box should you get?

MOST COMMON MATERIALS FOR WATCH BOXES.

 

 

Wooden watch boxes



Wood is the most commonly used material for making watch boxes. It is not only a high quality material, but also an environmentally friendly one. Wood from responsible sources is renewable, so you don't have to worry about harming nature. If you choose to buy a wooden watch box, you can be sure that your watch stand will maintain its quality and won't break down over a long period of time. Perhaps the biggest concern with wooden watch boxes is that they are more likely to be damaged by moisture.

Wood is also attractive and has a natural look and feel. It can be used in a variety of ways. These exposed wooden boxes can be a sophisticated home decor item and give a room a more natural and fresh look.

If you own a wooden clock, a wooden box will match your clock perfectly. And while we're at it: If you are looking at a wooden watch box.

Leather watch boxes


If you want to buy a leather watch box, there are two options: genuine leather or PU leather (better known as faux leather). You can take a look at our collection of leather watch boxes.

Usually, the case under the leather finish will be made of another material (wood in most cases), but that certainly doesn't make the product less valuable. This type of watch box will look especially sophisticated in your home. A men's leather watch box can make an excellent gift for a family member or loved one.

If you choose a watch box made of genuine leather, you can be sure that it will be more durable than a box made of faux leather (its useful life is two to three times longer). This becomes especially important if your life consists of transporting your watches frequently. Genuine leather is an affordable material that is both valuable and elegant. It will be a suitable choice if you are looking for a Rolex watch box. This duo will complement each other and create an elegant image.

On the other hand, if you are looking for a genuine leather look, a cheaper option, a vegan product, or a variety of colors, PU or faux leather will be a finer option for you.


The faux leather or PU



PU leather or polyurethane leather is a cheaper alternative to real leather and is made in a more ethical way. It's easy to clean. And the biggest advantage is that 100% PU leather is vegan. Nowadays, it's becoming more and more important for people to choose cruelty-free alternatives to products they already know. So if you are vegan, you should look for 100% PU leather watch boxes to make sure your products were not harmful to animals, because in some cases PU leather contains remnants of real leather. The downside is that your PU leather watch box may wear out faster, but if you don't travel with your watch collection often, it may be worth checking out the selection of PU leather watch boxes available.

Cardboard storage boxes



An excellent alternative if you don't feel like fancy displays and appreciate simplicity and low cost. Cardboard is the least expensive choice. It also offers the most potential for customization, as you can choose the look of your personal watch box, if the seller allows it. These watch boxes are easier to recycle and don't require a lot of resources to make. Although cardboard does not look as sleek and elegant as other materials, it still serves as an interior decoration.

Aluminum storage boxes



Aluminum storage boxes can give your watches an expensive and elegant look. There are smaller aluminum watch boxes for those who own one watch, and larger storage boxes for serious collectors that can hold even 12 or more watches. Some of these storage boxes look like a briefcase, so you can easily take them anywhere. However, don't be put off by the noise of the aluminum storage boxes because in most cases, they are lined with soft foam to ensure the safety of your pieces. This type of folder would be a more suitable choice if you travel frequently and carry your watch collection with you.

Plastic storage boxes



Due to the variety of plastics, these watch boxes can vary from simple containers intended for transporting a watch to cases reminiscent of aluminum suitcases. If you don't want to have the most luxurious of watch boxes and the storage aspect is more important to you, a plastic watch box can be the solution. Equipped with good insulating materials, it will prevent your watch from being damaged by water or other liquids. They are lightweight and you can customize them more easily. A good choice if you are looking for a splash of color for your interior.

 

Cork storage boxes


This one is a little unusual, but why not? Cork, which comes from the bark of a tree called the cork oak, is an interesting material to say the least. Cork is a lightweight, waterproof and durable material. So you can be sure that with a watch box made of cork, you can keep your watch safe. It's a great way to bring a bit of nature into your home, if that's the kind of feel you're looking for.

Admittedly, these watch boxes are usually only meant for storing one or two watches. If you are an avid collector and your collection includes dozens of timepieces, you may need to look for other suitable alternatives. However, if this is not an option for you, this casket can be a unique gift for someone who stands out from the crowd.


Fabric storage boxes


Speaking of gifts, a fabric watch box, usually made of felt, is potentially a great and sincere gift for a loved one. If you're not looking for the most elegant and expensive look, but rather something authentic, a felt watch box could be the right choice for you. This watch box will not exude wealth and elegance, but rather will give its owner a sense of comfort and familiarity.

Watch boxes for collectors watches



If you're an avid collector of watches, it's clear that you want only the best watch box to protect your pieces. Fortunately, there are numerous offerings for you to choose from. These watch boxes are larger and offer the ability to store your entire watch collection in one place. They consist of several rows of compartments where you can place your watches, which sometimes can only form part of a multi-level casket. It would be more appropriate to look for a watch box with automatic winding to ensure that your watches are always ready to be worn. Watch boxes designed specifically for collectors will surprise you with their luxurious appearance and high quality.
