How To Store Your Rolex Watches | Bob's Watches

[@annenominous7220]

I just toss mine in a drawer, lol. Had it since 1982, it runs like a champ. Only serviced twice.

You have lost respect from the rolex community

@@eabnamoliben1598 Why? A drawer accomplishes the same goal as a watch box.

[@ChrisTennis]

Is storing watches longterm harmful for the spring mechanism? Thanks

[@EmilioBaldi]

To prevent the Rolex bracelet from scratching the Rolex caseback maybe use a cushion or a microfiber cloth?

[@maheshshanmuganathan]

I'm liking the video first, and then watching. That's how much I'm confident about the content you Guys put together and present!

[@dewantausifyarchowdhury2449]

Should you keep it in the green box or a watch organiser

[@bobswatches]

Hey Dewan, It is really all preference. Some like to keep it in the watch winders, or in their personal watch box's. The reccomended best way to store you watch would be on a watch winder if you are not wearing it reguarly.

[@phifismyusername]

Any concerns on the direction of placement of the watch over long periods in storage? Does it matter if the face is place face down or on its side for years in storage?

[@bobswatches]

Hey Phif, this is a good point. Depending on the watch you may want to rotate a certain way depending on its movement and inside mechanics.

[@dczero]

Where can I buy one of those 2-slot zip-around watch case?

[@dougharlow6037]

Question? If you store your Rolex on the pillow that comes with the watch won't it streatch the band?? Thanks

[@andywilliams4887]

I have two Mozsly devices to manage the power reserve of 5 quality automatic watches. I tend to rotate the watches according to when they were last worn and by their power reserve. I switch on the winders for around 8-10 hrs a day only when I think necessary (not always the same watch naturally) and they keep all pieces ticking along very nicely. Super quiet, not silly money and very reliable, they can run off the mains, be linked together, or run on two AA batteries if you don't want the hassle of cables and I've found the latter easily last for over two months when operating them on the standard bi-directional 650TPD setting. They cannot overwind a decent watch - if that was the case and you wear an auto watch daily, it would break in no time. If you are going away for a long time and are not taking all your collection (who does lol), just let the watches wind down, stop and rest. it will do them no harm at all.

[@dimitriszolo]

What is the most correct way to store an automatic watch will we leave it with the Crown closed or not

[@bobswatches]

The most correct way to store an automatic watch is to leave the crown closed. When not wearing the watch, it's best to keep it in a safe, dry place, and closing the crown ensures that no dust or moisture gets into the movement, which can damage the watch over time. If you store the watch in a watch box or winder, keep the crown closed and make sure the watch is fully wound if you plan to wear it soon. Just ensure it's stored away from magnetic fields and extreme temperatures to protect the movement!

[@dimitriszolo]

@ thanks bro is it necessary to be in movement and always to wing it?

[@kmern6979]

So what's the best/safest watch winder for a single rolex?

[@yakumotatsuro4886]

i might just create a John Wick safe in the ground A safe key + sledge hammer would be needed to acces it

[@TheVixory]

Can anyone tell me the name/brand of that single- watch leather winder with the ABC & off settings on it? Thanks!

[@a124as]

Windsor Module 2.5 Brown Leather Single Watch Winder

[@richardsanchez9190]

Ok so I have the safe at home and I'm storing it long term. Should I take it out and wind it a couple times a year once every few months? Hypothetically speaking. Keeping in mind that the date and time would not need to be accurate, just so the mechanism inside doesn't stick

[@americanpaisareturns9051]

3:38 Nice Rothwell 😉😂

[@allanbacani]

Great information. Unflattering chair.

[@bobswatches]

Glad it was helpful! Sorry about the chair! 😅

[@robbielauderdale4143]

I’m digging the chair!

[@EmilioBaldi]

Against humidity, I don't understand, do you advice to use a safe?

[@Kk58226]

Where can one find the winder that is slightly slanted backwards that’s seen in the video winding the chronograph watch?

[@bobswatches]

The watch winder is from Wolf.

[@Kk58226]

@@bobswatches thanks for the response, can’t find it on their website. Is there an affiliate link you can post that links to the winder the Platona is on?

[@hayabusa27]

I remodeled a room to keep moisture away from my Casio

[@steelsteez6118]

3:49 Moisture?!?! 🤣 Oh no, my 300m rated submariner will be ruined! 😂

[@vdochev]

They say if it is really old and has not been serviced. You don't know the state of the seals, if they degraded, the watch isn't water/moisture resistant anymore.

[@reempire888]

#601 liked. Very good video, precise and to the point information. Thank you.

[@templar1060]

Buy a hell of a safe and take the time to lock them up. Too much craziness these days.

[@thomasarussellsr]

Make sure the safe you choose can be bolted to the floor from inside the safe so thieves can't access the bolts. Free standing safes can be taken and opened later.

[@vladmariano]

I just can´t wait to watch the next episode...it could be... "wind your hand winding watch so it starts running"?

[@globalluxurywatches960]

Magnifique 👍 Wow

[@malikshabazz7596]

Why stress storing Rolex Watches, is not storing Watches just storing Watches, or putting Rolex in the Video title draws more views.

[@johnscott4693]

All fine except you missed THE most important factor... Never, ever buy a cheap watch winder. Their mechanisms are not only unreliable, noisy and ugly they have magnetic fields that can damage your watch (or at least make its timekeeping rate fail).

[@Flightsimmovies]

I like to buy a safe and put some rock in it then put the safe in the obvious place and then keep the real valuable item somewhere else. So when a robber came and saw a safe they will just took it back home and not the real valuable item hidden somewhere else in the house 🤣🤣

[@gajoaleatorio]

can I use it in an omega or other poor people watch brands?

[@a124as]

Im using it on gshock!

[@blakemartin6853]

😂 all the poor people with Omega, Rolex, Breitling, Tudor, and Tissot can use it too! Its not just for rich people with Lange and Patek, its for peasants too, you smooth brain! 😂

[@steelsteez6118]

nope, which means that unless you have Patek, VC, Roger Dubois, RM, AP, or independent watch makers like Gronefeld, you cant store. This is not made for peasant basic SS watches with basic movements with basic finishing like Omega or Rolex or Tudor or Zenith. Only brands above i mention and independent haute horology watch makers.

[@danielho9753]

What’s the best way to store an Invicta? Now that’s the real question.

[@a124as]

You and me in the same boat!!

[@steelsteez6118]

[@freedomchannel3656]

I bury mine in a shoe box out back

[@jameswilson8820]

Mine is wrapped in a sock

[@theaustrian4934]

What a nosence to limit the recommendations to Rolex. A Patek Philippe can be stored the same way.

[@AndersonTom220]

I put all my Rolex and other watches in a custom pelican water and crush resistant box and store it inside my gun safes.

[@donniefore2531]

[@kaczynski2333]

Because Rolexes should be stored differently to other watches? What fresh hell have I stumbled into?

[@EmilioBaldi]

"Rolex" repeated every 15.7 seconds. But the real question is: at the end of the day, with which watch does she goes home?

[@fjones1914]

Looks like she’s wearing a Panerai.

[@EmilioBaldi]

@@fjones1914 I mean when she's not at the boutique. He is probably wearing a Panerai because they are in vogue in the US now, but contemporary Panerai leave something to be desired: even those who work in Panerai find it hard, with the case back open, to distinguish them from the clones.

[@vdochev]

With the CASIO, obviously. What kind of a question is that?

[@VaultingOnix72]

Feel like I’m being shouted at

[@richardharris2042]

Could you say Rolex a bit more please, I don't think you mentioned the brand enough

[@SSKingofNY]

If you need a video to tell u to keep it in the box u should not own a Rolex LOL

[@vdochev]

For someone new to the watch world, they might not know these options, so it's a good showcase of what products are available. I didn't know watch winders existed for years.

[@americanpaisareturns9051]

Well you definitely know how to grab a man’s attention.
