The Accessories
Heirloom pocket watches should be displayed proudly, stored securely, and carried safely for future generations. We offer shelf stands for display, custom wooden cabinets for presentation, and leather straps to prevent your pieces from being dropped.
Custom Pieces Made To Order
Show off your best watches in a custom-made display case in just about any design that you can imagine.
It could be a presentation box, a storage chest with trays, a mirrored wall display case, a cabinet for parts or glass crystals, a desktop piece with domes, or a portable watchmaker's bench - all with your choice of hardwoods, finishes, hardware styles and even lighting.
The Finishes
The choice is entirely yours how you want it to look. Your piece can be finished with aniline dyes, straight poly, pigment stains, or even left unfinished for you to complete in your leisure time.
The Lighting
Accent lighting is a must for any wall or desktop piece to show off your best pieces to perfection. It can be incandescent, low-voltage, or even LED, controllable with a remote or line switch.
Past Customer Requests
There are no set prices on these, since they are all custom pieces, based on the specifications of the customer. As always, watch repair and restoration for our customers comes first, so there is a waiting list for this. Write us with your idea, and for pricing and lead times.
Show Them Off
Display domes are a great way to show off that special piece while keeping the dust to a minimum. The base can be turned from any species of wood and finished with a number of stains and sealers, or left unfinished for the DIY-ers. Display domes can also be used with other types of bases, like a tiered one with multiple hooks set at different heights, or even a powered base with rotating hooks.
Single domes starting at $35
Custom Braided Straps
Prevent tragedies with these supple straps, hand-made from top-grain leather in your choice of lengths and colors. Keep one on each of your carry pieces and never drop a watch again.

Trim Ferrules
All braided leather straps come with your choice of nickel-silver or brass ferrules. Black usually looks best with nickel, while the warmer brass complements the brown shades of leather.
Included on all straps
No Upper Ferrule
The upper ferrule can be left off on any single-color strap, since they are braided from one long continuous strip of leather, or one can be added to match the required lower ferrule.
Entirely your choice
Single Color
This is a 4-strand braid using your choice of hides in lengths from 9 to 12 inches. It comes with an upper loop for your belt and a thinner lower loop that attaches to your watch bow.
Twin Color
We offer two-tone straps with either hide as the accent stripe, so pick your colors. A max length of 12 inches is recommended, since anything longer can snag on doorknobs and desk corners.
Safety Strap
This unique strap has a built-in shock absorber that stretches to almost twice its length to prevent your watch from being pulled out of your pocket. Made from a single piece of braided leather.
Split Rings
Split rings with a matching eyelet are available instead of an upper belt loop. Brass looks best with brown leather and gold watch cases, while black and nickel go together on silver cases.
Bow Protectors
These are perfect for those who prefer chains because they prevent the metal-on-metal contact that grinds bows thin. Take your pick of leather colors and eyelet choices on these half-inch by two inch straps and keep one on every chain.
Shelf Displays
Display your best pocket watches on these sturdy acrylic stands! Each one can hold an 18-size open-face or hunting watch.
Quantity of 6 for $20
