You’ve read about portable watch cases that you can take along for travels. Now, how about larger, boxier formats that act as the ultimate watch display piece for your home?

Some even classify as trunks due to their hard-sided nature and the use of trunk-making techniques. While this results in prices that lean towards the higher side, your luxury timepieces surely deserve such stunning abodes. Besides, they also make for the perfect conversation starter with visiting guests.
