How do you display your watches?


  1. MaukaRunner

    Thinking of a way to display my watches. Seen the post that uses foam but want something different. Maybe a tree type stand that can hold three to five watches that I can put on my desk or dresser and can easily show the whole watch. Anyone know of something like that?

    There's some nifty clear circular cases that hold about five G-Shocks, but they're only available in Japan. I saw some relatively cheap glass display cases at Ikea that would be good for showing off a lot of watches. I just keep my G-Shocks in boxes, but I should probably find a way to display some of them.

    JasanH made a great custom display case for his G-Shocks:

    Nice display case! A glass case would be nice, I just wish we had a Ikea here in Hawaii. I was at Macy's looking at G-shocks and they have a real nice display case for G's and Baby G's. Wish I could get one of those!

    Do you happen to have any pics of those Japan Only circular cases?

    Thanks Riley!

    You can see one roundish one here:

    There's another variation that's similar, but meant to stand up vertically.

    I've seen really nice professional retail watch display cases turn up from time to time one eBay. If you're in Hawaii though the shipping might be cheaper from Japan.

    I wish Casio would put out some G-Shock branded cases for us.

    WOW those cases are really nice! I think I need to learn Japanese so I can do Japanese ebay and yahoo auctions.

    My Christmas present from my mother in law. Yes, I'm leaving space on the bottom row for at least one more G (a Frogman)

    Very nice agentorange.

    Some day I need to organize my Gs better. I've just been sticking them in random places lately. So I can never find the one I'm looking for.

    I like those cases. If I get a few more then I'm going to need a nice case like that.

    Unlike my other watches My G's spend the day where ever they want.
    The radio controlled and solars prefer a spot near a window while the others have multiple residences.
    They like the freedom.

    Hehe. I think my Gs like being tossed around a bit. You can't let all that toughness go to waste. My dresser drawer is home to many a happy G-Shock.

    I have seen a cool vertical, clear (for tough solar) case on a blog called a collectower. However, I can't find it to buy anywhere and am still waiting for a reply from the blogger on where he found it. In the mean time, I went to Lowes and found a 45 degree PVC 2inch to 1.5 inch elbow connector in the plumbing section. My wrists must be 1.5 inches in diameter because my watches fit on the top of the connector perfectly. I'll post a picture tomorrow after I paint them (they come in black).
    They look pretty cool because of the shape and angle they display the watch. Plus, they fit on my window sill perfectly to allow sun and radio waves for my 3 tough solars.
    They are coolish looking and functional!
