- It’s important to protect your watches when you are on the go. In this episode, I share my experience with different types of watch pouches and cases for travel.
Hey everyone, I've been getting tons of requests for early access invites to WatchCrunch.com. Please email me at max@watchcrunch.com to get one ✌
I've so many big watch boxes taking up space but my most recent purchase, a Breitling Super Ocean came in a small box and it's cushion is a watch pouch and protector. It's a much better option than a big fancy box.
I'm so proud of you brother. I'm blessed to have seen your journey from the jump, its been incredibly inspiring and motivating to see. Your work ethic and grit exemplify greatness. I'm so happy for you. This is a moment to celebrate. Well done brother. Always in your corner. Thank you for carrying "our" flag high. Ps. love that new ambient set.
Mick, you are an inspiration. Thanks for the kind words and let this be just the beginning 😉
Awesome name change. Love this channel. Keep up the good work!!!!! Watch roll for 3 is still my go to storage when I travel.
Thanks Barry! I need to find a compact roll 😅
Good fun and well produced. Looking forward to the growth of this channel!
Thanks Travis for your support 👍
Great news / new name and project. Just purchased a Broad Arrow after watching your reviews, so keep up the great content!
Cheers Simon! Thanks for coming along for the ride 😉
Congrats on the changes! Also, regarding the green canvas roll, I believe the top part is suppose to flap down, and then you roll it up so watches don’t slip out. I have a similar roll and mine works like that lol
Thanks, I tried it and it does work a lil better, but still not super secure 😅
Those cases are ok but they suck when you have a watch on a bracelet. It makes the bracelet scratch against the caseback or itself. Watch tube with small pillow inside it the way to go.
Could you provide a link to the 2 watch case? Or at least just write the name of the product, thanks!
Enjoyed the roundup and excited for your next steps! You mentioned home watch displays as a topic- I’m really intrigued by any hidden/ security options that go beyond a wall/floor safe. 👍🏻✌🏻
I'll have to look into that. Hidden watch cave? 🤫
@@WatchCrunchOfficial haha yes! I always wanted a fake book to pull to open a secret door!
I truly hope this watchcrunch project works well for your (and all who subscribe of course).
As for my favorite watch transport device; I’d go with both the 2 watch and 4 watch cases with a leaning towards the deeper 4 watch case.
I personally have a 3 watch “roll” b/c I love G-Shocks and when I travel, it’s my watch of choice and they typically have integrated straps which don’t fit in a standard pouch or case.
Thanks for sharing and good luck with this new endeavor!
Yes a couple people have chimed in about GShocks, good point 👍
what is brand of the spring bar tool you have in the video at 3:50? I love the form factor!
Awesome work brother - looking forward in supporting your content !
Cheers Moses! 🍻
I'm such a fiend for watch accessories, so this was right up my alley. Unfortunately I got mesmerized by either looking at your Breitling or waiting for it to re-appear. I do like Adrian't one watch leather pouch, though to be honest, I rarely use it. I have the Mirage watch roll for three and that one I have been using when I travel. I wish they had the leather one they sell now at the time...I might trade up to that. We'll see. I'll check out the website! sounds like a community experience that I'd really like.
Haha, I sprinkled some watch porn in there for you Michael 😉
Hey, what’s that spring bar tool you put in the two watch case? I’ve been looking for a compact one for travel.
Hey man, stumbled here and found your content, you have a nice production style. Love the background. I’d add a plant in there though.
Love the new set!
Cheers! I'm at the mercy of daylight 😅
Just discovered this channel of yours, gotta say cant believe you don't have more subs
I like the background. Love the channel, keep up the good work. I'll watch regardless of the name of the channel.
Thanks Joel, that means a lot 😊
Very informative
Thank you
Just stumbled on this subject and as I travel multiple times a year, I find it germain. But my problem isn't about choosing a watch pouch, but rather which 2-3 watches would I choose for a trip...so difficult to narrow down choices. I normally, select from a dozen then try to narrow them down. On a trip, I avoid taking expensive watches although I am a long sleeve guy so fewer worries...Thanks.
I like SparklyWatch. When you wear only one watch these travel issues don't arise but interesting to see the stuff that's out there. Good luck with the Watch-Crunch Max 👍
Haha, thanks Morgan! Did your PO survive the reno?
With regards to the canvas roll that you no longer use, can't you fold down the 'flap' before rolling and tying the string (3:21)? seems to me the canvas is large enough to fold down and but may be not long enough to prevent the watches from falling out?
Not really, if you fold it, then then strap doesn't really work to secure it
I'd take a protective case any day.
Yes, they're bigger, bulkier, and take up much more space.
However, nothing can protect a watch collection better than them, and they're much more theft proof.
Congrats on all the success Max 👏
Thanks Miguel, keep rocking brother 😎👍
@@WatchCrunchOfficial ❤️
For 3 watch, I like using this one from QWatch.. I think that's how it's spelled.. anyways, it's pretty decent quality with (likely) leather.. idk, maybe it's real?.. feels and looks nice enough. Suede lined interior and matching material for the 3 pillows. What's good is that they slot in, so you don't have to remove other watches just to get to the middle one, assuming we're taking watches on a bracelet or otherwise a closed loop/strap that you can't just open up like a 2-piece strap.. Like with that Wolf watch roll you had.. btw, I got the same one, but, won it in a contest from Lume Shot... You have to remove a watch from either end to access the middle one if it can't come out any other way. Additionally, I found the cylindrical nature of that Wolf watch roll wasn't stable. If not careful or paying attention, it could possibly roll right off the surface you have it on and fall on the floor spilling out the watch contents. Being that most watches are top heavy, it doesn't really take too much to get the watch roll rolling if you can imagine.
Going back to the QWatch roll, what's good is it's hexagonal, so it can sit flat on surface without rolling over. I mentioned the pillows slot into dividers in the watch roll which ease access to the individual watches. And, the flap can be opened up and laid flat so you can also use it as a safe surface to place your watches on. It's not cheap.. maybe prices have gone up since I last bought mine on Amazon.. but, they are around maybe $130. I think worth it for that style. Quality is pretty good, it has great functionality, and they come in a variety of color combinations.. I think 4.
Sorry, that was a bit long. One more... For single watch holders. Wolf makes a nice one in leather. Look for the Wolf Watch Case Blake Wrap Black. It's pretty nice and compact and I like the way the center protective piece holds onto the watch. These are best for watches on bracelets or straps you can fold/bend tightly like maybe on a NATO. Would not recommend for watches on leather or rubber straps.
Then, there are these semi-hard round cases you may have seen. They look almost like a donut.. but, no hole in the middle. Decently padded with a secure zip around. You lay the watch sideways in this donut clamshell like case. It's not the slimmest, but not too bulky for travel with good protection and can accommodate watches on any type of straps. I don't have a specific brand name, but I know Vario makes some as well as a bunch you could probably find on Amazon as well.
Very good info! I'm taking a screen shot 😉. Cheers dude!
Maybe I missed it but you failed to point out one major thing about some of these cases which is if you have a watch on deployant that won't lay flat it won't work with alot of these flatter cases. Delugs you showed is an example. You can't use a deployant case watch with that case.
I've been missing your latest videos because I didn't realized you changed your channel name. Love the new style - ala Bark & Jack.
Welcome back Luc! New project, new name. Very excited 😁
Looks like you might need to try one of our watch cases that really protect your watches
Ikr lol, these pouches are completely useless.
Max, even if you change your name to Nathalie, I'll keep watching you.
Haha, watches with Nathalie has a ring to it 😆
The first one watch case (suede pouch) - is there any protection on the inside to protect the watch crystal getting scratched by the back side of that 'nubbin' used to fasten the flap in the closed position?
Yes the metal is covered 👍
Great video! I never really understand why do some people need to bring more than two watches to travel ...
Haha, I guess it depends on the length of the trip, but I usually bring 2-3
How anout a link (since it wasn't posted anywhere) for that two watch WatchCrunch leather travel pouch.
hey max, who ended up winning the seiko turtle giveaway? I remember suggesting a video on watch boxes and watch rolls :)
Some guy in Connecticut got the turtle. Send me a message on IG, let's get you a pouch 😉
You rubbin the pouch on your face made me subscribe lol
You're missing the 2 watch case from Rothwell! Has a space for accessories as well.
Who makes the one watch suede pouch?
I will say I still like to use a cylinder watch case, just because when I travel I always bring my G-Shock which can’t go flat enough for most travel pouches
Good point, gShocks can't be contained!
Hmm I think you should've went with Sparkly Watch. Glad you didn't because I'm stealing it! 😅
Congrats on the big change! More resources and more content is what we all want!
Thanks Brandon! I'll be looking out for your bedazzled reviews 😂
Carapaz Watch Rolls, best cases for amazing quality and not ridiculous priced.
Looks superb! Not cheap either 😅
@@WatchCrunchOfficialI look at it like, 3 Seikos in a $40 case. If you have 3 Rolex in a $340 case it's about the same.
What's the ref of the Omega watch at 0:39?
Dont love the bracelet rubbing against the case back. Something between the bracelet and case back is key.
Yep, the little leather pad does the trick!
You should call the channel "Max Crunch." It's got enough for people to recognize that the channel is associated with Watch Crunch (especially if you mention the website in the beginning of each video). I don't think it's necessary to spell that out for everyone by calling the channel "Watch Crunch with Max."
Business decision 😊 But all great ideas!
@@WatchCrunchOfficial I understand it's a business decision. I just don't think it's a good business decision, because the name you're changing to is not a catchy name, and a catchy name will do wonders for spreading word and increasing traffic. Anyway, it's your decision, obviously. Good luck with that and hopefully I'm proven wrong.
@@hotlesbianassassin Appreciate the feedback my man!
Change the name or have no name. It's about the watches, content and community. Keep growing and keep doing what you do Max, and the crunch community.
Cheers Curwin, you know what's up 🤜🤛
Hi, please kindly share the first item name and link thank you
cant find product links
Can't find drlux case:(
Nice👍👍👍👍
🎉❤
Single watch roll is my choice when I travel with 2 watches.
I need to find a compact roll to try
Clam watch case 🤚🏻
1 watch. Pouch would be the choice, probably a case for more than one piece.
I'm with ya on that 👍
You forgot to mention watchpod type of cases. Non of what you have there will work with oysterflex Rolex and things like the Royal Oaks.
Right, and gshocks 😆. For those you need a roll
@@WatchCrunchOfficial As you said, watch rolls are too bulky. One watch watchpod case and a one watch pouch is how I roll. 😂
I must admit. I’ve kinda grown attached to Haute ones tbh.
Gonna be sad to see it go, but on to the next chapter 😁👍
I'm not really a fan of any of these. I'm more into the larger leather watch rolls. I can carry more watches and they're better protected.
I sent you a message. Thank you.
Got it! Thanks Kelly
Watchpod has a better one than your 1 watch case.
100th
1st😎👍
My only travel watch is a Swatch...It says, I'm broke and not worth robbing, lol!
I do wear a nice watch in the states, only if my little friend "snubby," comes with!
I know some very expensive swatches 😉
@@WatchCrunchOfficial True...they do exist!🤛🏼
