Adapt, overcome, improvise. No watch roll, no problem.
As I'm leaving today for a roadtrip with my Missus, I realized (nah, I knew) I didn't have anything to carry my watches. No roll, no case, no problem. A roll of long socks can hold two watches comfortably. Plus one on the wrist and we have enough options for the week.
How do you carry multiple watches without a case/roll? Show us your ingenious solutions and let's discuss options!

I wanted to take my time and really think about what I wanted to say. Weigh every word. Craft every sentence. Clearly it didn't work. So here it is... I don't take myself seriously. I like a good laug...

I used to carry 1 watch in the original hexagonal G-Shock tin case. It always did the trick well, but it was a bit bulky.

I’ve put watches in extra eyeglass cases
Those watches are too big for your socks.
It's the only thing I could think of to carry multiple watches. I didn't want to spend $50+ for a two watch case. Truth be told, I didn't check Amazon or other discount places. I'd rather spend my money on watches themselves or something else entirely.
Considering I don't need to travel that much it, would be wasted.

I thought about using the original boxes. Indeed they are bulky and the none of the ones I have are metal. They're all cardboard.

I had the smallest of the three on my wrist.
It worked so far! Unfortunately I couldn't wear all three on my wrists. But I could have used my ankles! 🤯

Never thought of that! I have many unused eyeglasse cases all over the house. And right now, I don't even have one to put my actual glasses for when I eye my contacts. 🤦

I was actually joking about the neverending topic of "is this watch too big/small for my wrist?". No offense intended whatsoever.
Enjoy your trip!

No offense taken! It was more of a realisation that I did put my biggest watches on the sock roll and the smallest on my wrist. It hadn't occurred to me before then.
The whole dilemma of too big/too small is so foreign to me. I'm a bit slow on the uptake for that one. My big wrists dwarf most large watches and anything under 39mm looks silly. So I don't bother with this question.
Im all for wear what you want. Too big or too small, if it's not my wrist, I do not care what you prefer!!!

Oakley sunglasses cases are excellent and can fit multiple watches, as long as the watches are separated in glasses cleaning pouches or similar so they don’t bang on each other.

What did I write? ''for when I eye my contacts'' what does it even mean?
I probably meant to say ''for when I take my eyes out'' with a fork or other kitchen tool.
I HAVE ONE!! One of those pill shaped oakley cases? I just need to find it somewhere at home. Probably in a bon at the bottom of my closet. With my luck it will be the last one in the far corner.

Yep one of those 👍
