Show Me Your Portable Reliable Travel Storage Casing...

[kurt]

my friend taught me to just put in the G-shock metal case which already have inserts.
no one will target a gshock box

Just for a laugh





The last time that I brought it out for a watch meet, my arm was aching afterwards!

with reference to Ryuden pelican case style,

advantage - sturdy, can store multiple watches
disadvantage - need to get foam and cut to size

with reference to oakley single watch vault (large)

advantage - portable, light
disadvantage - single watch only, protection not as good as pelican style

with reference to Ryuden leather case pouch

advantage - multiple watches, protection better than oakley watch vault but not as good as pelican case style, can customize
disadvantage - bulky than oakley watch but not as bulky as pelican case style, usually limited to 2 watches, need to customize to accommodate

as for recommendation, there are many other different considerations, you can check out the straps, bracelets watch tools and accessories sections. it comes down to

• how many watches you want to carry
• need to change straps/bracelets which means need to find one that can allow you to fit tool and extra straps
• hand carry bag space

Hahaha! I think I need to bring a trolley with that!

Nope, not the GSD one but through a member that was selling them here. Not that expensive, about S$60+, if I remember correctly.

Oakley 07-234 Large Watch Soft Vault Storage Case

My short humble review

I'm really fortunate to be able to travel a bit in my work. And I always primarily face two dilemmas:

- At the airport, where to put my watch for a body search (so it doesn't get tossed around / or get scratched)
- During travels, especially long hauls...wouldn't just having one watch be boring and maybe out of occasion, in case I needed a combination of a dress watch and a diving watch for example.

I had begun looking for a nice portable, durable case and most of what was available pointed to the Oakley 07-234. Then came the search to find it locally in Singapore but to no avail. Decided on Amazon and it cost USD20, shipping was USD9.98.

It finally came and I had brought it along two trips already before writing this review.



I would say the design is a simple clam-shell. Light and compact. Somewhat durable and sturdy (elephant sitting on it would definitely squash it) but in your luggage or haversack...a breeze to bring around. Would classify it an Oakley trademark - designed for outdoors. It is certainly of good quality.

The material inside is soft and would be gentle with your wrist possession. It fits almost big shape and sizes BUT only one piece.

This now provides an option of carrying at least two watches on my travels. Overall am very delighted with this case.

PROS

- small and compact, light
- gentle inside enough for your watch, hard enough outside to prevent knocks

CONS

- small could be achilles heel for some people. Negligible, prone to misplacement if careless
- pricey (subjective - but worth it in my opinion)

Recommended for travellers especially

Nice review bro...

Another great option...no reason to leave your precious timepiece at home when you can bring them and enjoy the travel together...

Thanks...

Cheers.
