 I'm going to take into consideration as to what I am reading that for the most part those who are so wanting the watch box are new to the hobby and that this means something special to you?....all I can say is that once you start seriously collecting and have been around awhile amassing a large collection those boxes become nothing but a big nuisance.:D 

I am sure Ralf and Steve took their time in making this decision and felt as I do that the wrap was the icing on the cake!...one thing I have noticed about Benarus is their attention to detail and not being like everyone else...take for instance these carry boxes which Ralf was one of the very 1st to use  and now every forum watchguy is using them!...I can see the next wave of forums watches all using this wrap in the near future,so I look at it like I was the 1st on the block to get this very cool wrap which is actually a great travel case! ..and I Thank Ralf and Steve for  taking the extra time to make sure I get more than my monies worthhand6.gifhand6.gif

I know as a newbie it was awesome to display my watch in the carriage it came in but as I said after awhile they just became a burden trying to find a place to store them all as my collection grew and my watches found their way into collectors cases.....now these are collectible...watch boxes?...Nah...not imho! Most companies don't even tell you what your watch is coming in and quite frankly who cares becuase my only interest is the watch ...there seems to be this trend among new WIS who just expect everything...extra straps,tools,lug screws....hey what next a free watch too! ....wait until you buy your 1st Rolex or Omega and you only get the watch and a box...c'mon give a seasoned WIS a break! :D
