My new Pelican case
Hi SCS bros!
This just came in, and I am pretty pleased with it! Pardon my poor photos.
My babies in a box
A closer look of my humble collection
My mini-review of the Pelican 1200 and the Pick and Pluck foam.
The Pelican 1200 is just the right size for 6 watches, and maybe can squeeze in 8.
I have no need for the waterproof-ness of it as all my watches are diver watches, but the case is built like a tank, and is reassuringly solid. The clasps snap shut authoritatively, and I have no worries when swinging the case around in my hand and skipping around like a little girl.
The foam is very easy to deal with as it is already cut out into little squares but the important thing is to have a plan, and a sharp knife, and steady hands. I don't mind slight jagged edges that will occur if you DIY (especially for the first time).
I 'recycled' the cut out foam by using them as pillows, and stored the leftover foam to use for other purposes.
Thank you for reading!

Nice! Very secret agent / James Bond. How much is it?
Re: My new Pelican case
Nice case and watches! Did you cut the foam yourself?
Re: My new Pelican case
The original Pick and Pluck is not that difficult..

You are not your job. You're not how much money you have in the bank. You're not the car you drive. You're not the contents of your wallet. You're not your fucking khakis. You're the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world.
