It’s high time you invested in some storage, to keep safe all of your precious timepieces but of course, you’ll want it to do justice to your collection. Here are 3 of the most luxurious watch cases for your perusal.
GLOBETROTTER WATCH CASE
British heritage brand, Globetrotter, are renowned for their exquisite suitcases, the likes of which have served well turned-out gents for decades. They’re now turning their attention elsewhere, unveiling this equally luxurious watch case made from the same vulcanised fibreboard and sumptuous leather as their signature luggage. We approve.

RAPPORT LONDON 4 WATCH MARINER’S CHEST
On the larger size is the Rapport London Mariner’s Chest, featuring four watch storage and twin draws. Featuring a piano black wooden finish and robust metal accents for added protection, the case is inspired by traditional sea mariner’s chests. Inside each watch holder rotates individually and a subtle light allows you to display your timepieces in all their glory.

BUBEN & ZORWEG VANGUARD CONNOISSEUR
This is less of a watch case and more of an armoire. With space for 26 watches and a full-blown humidor this opulent, German-made safe is the only way to go if you want the best for your burgeoning watch collection. Only the finest materials are utilised, with velour lining the inside and Italian nappa leather, hand-polished stainless steel and high-gloss wood all featuring prominently elsewhere.
