graman 2 Posted May 21, 2011 Hey all.... Experiment - The next generation! Introducing Dad's first experimental Watch box. Now...this is a little shallow for a first go - best for bracelet watches, as opposed to Pams and others with big mega straps that sit high.....will change for next time. This however is a rare timber. Top - Camphor Laurel Sides - Birdseye Lombardi Poplar (yes...a burl!) Natural oil and wax finish. Yes...Lombardi Poplar burls are VERY rare!.........VERY rare! The cushions are hand sewn from suede. Dimensions are on the photo. Price is $100usd + $30 shipping by normal airmail $8 shipping if in Oz. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vfsvfl 0 Posted May 29, 2011 Very nice. One problem: If I start buying nice boxes & lining watches up in them, one branch of the "management" here will suddenly have a quick & easy way to figure out how many I've accumulated. This would not be good... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
graman 2 Posted May 29, 2011 likely not! Hope it's not time for a change in management Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vfsvfl 0 Posted May 29, 2011 likely not! Hope it's not time for a change in management Not likely. Waaaay too much invested there. It's a matter of managing the information flow... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aren 27 Posted June 2, 2011 Another unbelievable and fabulous price on this stunning box. What lovely craftsmanship. We can see where Graman gets some of his talent.

subiim 0 Posted June 9, 2011 Tempted. Would that middle slat come out so I could fit three watches? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 81 Posted June 9, 2011 Experiment 4? That's gorgeous btw, Graman. (the box, not Kate ... well both, actually ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

graman 2 Posted June 9, 2011 Tempted. Would that middle slat come out so I could fit three watches? In a word, no......the insert is put in to the box from underneath, before the bottom is glued in to ensure it is secure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
graman 2 Posted June 27, 2011 Attention....At $90usd + $30usd shipping, you will be gaining a unique timber. This box, and it's sister, will be the only 2 of this type ever made, with Lombardi Poplar sides, and a camphor laurel top. These boxes were prototypes, and will remain unique. Future dimensions and styles will change, however a the 2 berth box will not be replicated again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
