    Very nice!

    Wow, impressive collection of compass watches! I have a question about the watch holder if you don't mind. I have one that looks pretty similar with a black inside but it looks this one is a bit bigger. In mine, the BP doesn't fit very well because the diameter of the case with the crown is too big. In your pictures, it looks like the place in the middle doesn't have 'sholders' on the cushion, is that correct? In mine, all three watch holders are similar but by removing the sholders from the center one, a few mm can be gained.

    Kind regards,

    Clemens

    Forcing the issue a bit

    I have the same watch travel box and struggle a bit with my Portuguese Perpetual Calendar. But I found out that if you use a bit force to put it in, it all fits snuggly. The one watch sitting a bit higher than its neighbour, if you know what I mean. The compartment walls/deviders (how to call them) are bent a bit, but that doesn't matter, the whole box still looks perfect when you take the watches out. So, I really can use it when travelling, even with my bigger watches.

    Kind regards,
    Paul, wearing steel VC Portuguese

    The watch that really doesn't like the travel-case

    The biggest problem is with the Aquatimer Split Minute. The Split Minute button on the left side of the watch case gets pushed in, I don't think it's a good idea to have that button in that position for a long time, even worse with a watch that is still running.

    My solution is to put the smaller watches in the travel box and wear two of the bigger ones :-)

    Kind regards,

    Clemens

    BP can fit in well with the travel-box.......

    Hi Clements,

    The Big Pilots can fit in well with the 3 watch trevel-box. No problem at all.

    Cheers,

    Thanks very much!

    That confirms my thoughts that this box is a bit bigger than the one I have.

    Kind regards,

    Clemens

    PS: lovely BP's!!!
