Since I only have a couple of watches, I just ordered some watch pillows that matched my closet organizer. I suppose if my collection grows I'll just move a pair of sunglasses out to make room.

Keep the sunglasses right in the middle section, they look perfectly placed. I would simply hang the belts in your closet and use the right side of the drawer for any new watches.

I couldn’t find a traditional watch box that I cared for so I am adapting a humidor to do the job.

I had a big 22 watch box with a glass display cover, but when I got serious with my watch collecting and was in the midst of having our home built as well, I had these type of custom drawers built into the closet to store the pieces that are in rotation. I have two drawers like this so I can store 16 of my pieces in these drawers and then the overflow collection is either stored in that display box and some in the bank vault.

I keep a watch box on my dresser. My G Shock gets laid onto the dresser near the box (unless I'm frequently wearing a different watch or about to travel with a different watch, in which case the G Shock goes in the box). I keep a few EcoDrive Citizens on a window sill, because I guess there isn't enough light that hits my watch box to keep them charged up.

I bought a humidor which holds a three watch roll, extra bands, watch tools and Air Pod Pro's. I may stick with the three watch roll as it may get rather expensive to fill two...

Thanks, funny story behind the box - I went to get my wife a "push present" from GoYard. I asked the rep if there was any watch boxes incoming. He said "if i had one - how serious are you about buying it?'

I replied " if its a 4 slot, add to cart."

He came out of the back with it and said "Antonio Brown asked for this 2 months ago and never came for it. It's yours now"

Needless to say I spent more on myself than my wife. For watches of these calibers, I believe the storage is just as important

I found this watch roll on Etsy from a vendor in Kiev.
