Best: Omega - followed by Fredrique Constant, Monta, and Longines. Rolex was meh and underwhelming compared to the others listed.

Worst: Vostok and Casio ๐Ÿคฃ

Casio is just little better then Vostok ๐Ÿ˜‚

Tapper's Jewelry for my wife's wedding ring along with my SMP, Speedy and finally my Panerai. Love being in a secluded lounge with champagne ๐Ÿพ, chocolates, etc.

No better experience.

The nicest presentation of the watches I own has to be G-Shock. The tins are great for storing all of my guitar picks. Honestly I don't care much about the box and would rather save a few bucks. Hell, I don't care if it comes in a brown paper bag.

Utility outclass the luxury. I use those boxes for extra watch straps & small tools ๐Ÿ”ฅ

All I know is I have two large bins full of watch boxes in my closet.

Haha soon you can build small castle ๐Ÿฐ out of those ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘

Glashutte has my favorite box so far, but anything larger is immediately disqualified. The Speedmaster box seems cool in theory, but is a total PITA and takes up way too much space. Hated that box.

ยท

Of course you know I would say Aragon (too OP for you? ), but I defer to @ImNevix and the #estohlman The Earl.

As promised, I will not release the DRAGON

I have to think about that one. All about the watch for me!

Great post Dev!! When it comes to the packaging and best experience I have to give it up to my Oak & Oscar team! The packaging, unboxing experience, presentation, and extras included are truly top notch and made to be used! So cool!!

Omega follows right along in line as well. My Seaweed came with fantastic goodies, and true world class experience when I picked it up on my bday, and some other great extras. Love this!!

Getting a Cuervo y Sobrinos in a beautiful humidor is pretty sweet (unfortunately, mine came in a winder that I never use...). This is a travel version...

Can we see that Helios passport watch holder?

Not my photo (at work now) but Two Broke Watch Snobs has some photos (mine is a lighter green):

Image

The inside has space to hold a watch, 1-2 spare straps, and a passport or two:

No problem sir โ˜บ๏ธ

I didnโ€™t get to cleaning up the office yesterday (weโ€™re just getting back to normal after having our master bath completely renovated) and that is where that box is stored. Its on my agenda for today. I havenโ€™t seen it in a few years either so motivation. Stay tuned.

Highly motivated sir ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

I had forgot about this one but it is nice also. Tutima Grand Flieger from just before they moved back to Glashutte.

One more from many years ago.

My Oris Williams F1 came in this. Its a tire. And after all these years the rubber/plastic has deteriorated so that it is now stickier than a Pirelli C5. ๐Ÿคฃ

ยท

Well heck. One more. This was the first โ€œpresentationโ€ box I ever got. It was totally unexpected especially as the watch was on clearance at the store. The brand didnโ€™t do so well for them. In fact the reason I went after this watch was because it was written up/praised in a magazine at the time.

Please note the deteriorated bonded leather lining. This box has been in storage in a controlled environment so the deterioration is inherent in the material.

As an architect, I need to share this Bulova box, one of their first FLW watches.
