How do you transport your watches?
A fairly simple question; How do you cart around your timepieces? For me, it's either a 4-watch roll, or a single watch roll. I also generally just attach my G-Shock to the pull handle on top of my backpack, as I'm not worried about dinging that one up.
I'm generally only traveling with two watches, so the single roll gets used a lot more than the 4 pack. However, I've gotten utility out of the larger roll, so it does get used more than I would have previously thought.

Hi there! I'm a writer in the outdoor world, and watches have been a recent passion of mine. I'm someone with a fairly small collection, so expect to see a lot of the same watches in my posts.

I have a 2 slot leather case with heavy duty snaps. I never travel with more than 3 watches so I've never felt the need to use a roll although I own a few that came with a watch purchase.
I always travel with 6 watches and a soft cloth.
It can slip easily into my travel luggage hidden compartment and stays with me until I reach my hotel safe lol.
One at a time-on my wrist.

Very nice!
In a pair of socks rolled up ... I'm cheap and simple LOL 😂
On my wrist. I have a One Watch One Adventure rule. I might throw an extra strap or two my bag, but that’s it.

Love it!
I travel with mine in individual cases. Much less bulky, easier to pack in your carry on, and one watch per case. That's a Zenith El Primero Rainbow Flyback.

I use this Bhosphorus leather briefcase. Holds 10 watches and there’s additional storage for gloves, straps, and other things.
I avoid putting watches with bracelets in the 4 watch rolls like the one pictured.. the bracelet tends to scratch the case back.

I may have to commission one from you in the future then!
I just bought this cheap AliExpress zipper case. With the one on my wrist, three should be good for a week in LA.

Oh man that's a good looking briefcase. I use to rock briefcases in high school back in the days when being GQ was fire! But where ya going with all that gear? LOL that's an additional carry-on cost when flying 😂🤣
socks.... safe and secure because the maid stall never look there in hotels.

When flying, bringing a briefcase doesn't incur any additional costs as it qualifies as a personal item. This is in addition to the allowance for a backpack. I find the briefcase especially useful for carrying essential items like gloves and loupes, making it the perfect choice for my travel needs.
I only ever travel with two. The watch on my wrist (usually my Aqua Terra as I can wear it anywhere) and a beater in my backpack, usually a G-Shock or a Seiko 5.
Q watch roll (hexagon shape). Only three watches. Trying to make that one when I'm traveling. Hasn't worked out yet🤣.
On my wrist. I never take a 2nd watch.
I use these, depending on how many I want to take with me
2-watch watch roll on longer trips, 1-watch pouch on shorter trips.
When I travel the watch goes on my wrist! The rest of my watches stay in their boxes.
I just ordered a 3 watch travel case from aliexpress for 17 dollars
I use the case that comes with gshocks
I really should have bought that momentum sea quartz. Holds it's own in that shot for sure!
Do the same thing with my gshocks lolololo. Usually take one nicer watch and 1 gshock as well
