    Watch Display

    Bought a €5 vitrine on the fleemarket. Painted it, and bought some stands and customized them. So I have a nice display in my home.

    Do you like it??

    Modern take on an historic collecting tradition. Very cool.

    Looks good, you just need some decent lighting on it now.

    Very timely, as I have just bought these tonight. They appear to be very similar to the three Omega stands that I already have, so I really need some form of a storage cabinet for my home-office.

    Very nice, I just wouldn't dare put any expensive watches in it in case I got burgled.

    Some lighting in it as has been said would look great

    I like that a lot, security is an issue I know, but if your insurance company doesn't stipulate it, then why not

    Total spend €5 for the vitrinebox and a can of paint.

    The watchholderstands I bought about 20 pieces on the Horloge forum for €16,95.

    They go in the safe when I am gone. And I have my own protection system. But I don't tell here what that is.

    Great value for a fiver, you can't go wrong, it looks great! You possible try led strip lighting internally.

    Cheers Martin

    Looks good, but if I bought one of those the wife would instantly fill it with her stuff.
