    For the money, it should be perfect. It's beautiful but the Quality Price Ratio (QPR) just not there. Love the green

      Yeah. Not thrilled with the separation of the leather in certain areas. Over all it is very nice. I agree though, it should be perfect for the price.

      Imperfections makes hand crafted leather beautiful.

    Very nice box you’ve got there for a stunning collection. It looks like it can fit in a safe without taking up too much room. Although it is handmade and of genuine leather, the price is just ridiculous. If it were $400-500 then I’d strongly consider it. Thank you and take care.

    Great case. Thanks for sharing with us. I got one of these last summer and love it. Although you should have got a bigger one. At the rate you’re going, you’ll be filling up box two in no time!! 🙂

    Great case. I’ve been looking at Bosphorus cases and watch rolls for a while. It’s nice to see this! We’d all love them to be perfect but that’s not reality with hand made leather goods. Great collection too!

    I think you should look into starting up watch rolls and cases - you have a great eye for these things and quality control. Lots of other watch bloggers do straps... casings should be your thing!!! I’d buy from you mate!!!!

    That’s $181.50 per watch square. But there’s a fair amount of hand craft here and high quality materials. So this isn’t a Hodinkee travel clock situation.

    Question about the lid hinge mechanism. Is it just a free moving hinge? So it will fall into closed position if bumped hard enough?

    Damn. Your collection is near perfect! Some would say a bit too heavy on the sporty side, but just like myself I guess you simply like sport watches the most. So why then buy pieces e.g. just for the sake of "you should have a dress watch"

    I have a watch roll from them and have been really happy with the quality. Sorry to hear about the lower quality workmanship on your case. Even with the discount you received, I’d be really annoyed at the product you received.

  • @ALLinHerMovements

    Great view. I’m ordering their watch roll for four watches. How do you think the quality is compared to your Everest roll?

    • @watchesgiggles5659
      @watchesgiggles5659  3 года назад

      Thank you 🙏. I would say the leather is on another level from Everest. Not even close really. You can see though, it isn’t perfectly made from the slight separation in the leather at certain points. I don’t believe that will happen with one of their watch rolls.

  • @derekshearer9049
    @derekshearer9049 3 года назад

    Gotta ask. How does that display watches? In order to enjoy the box it has to be closed and that kinda goes against displaying the watches....

      I don’t mind lifting the lid. I didn’t want a glass top. I like a cup of coffee in the morning and enjoying “looking at my collection.”
