Watch Box
As a new member of the forum, thought would try to upload pictures of a box I made last year. Made to house a very valuable watch, the box is Jarrah with a myrtle burl panel.

Very nice box, I like the idea. Is there storage underneath that would fit wrist watches?

The section underneath the cradle (which lifts out) houses documentation relating to the history of the watch movement. I believe the movement was built in 1716 by George Graham who was a famous English watchmaker

Lovely work Greg
If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

Beautiful box. Well done

If he gets it without working for it; he's a parasite; and if he accumulates it after a life time of hard work, people call him a fool who never got anything out of life."

That box is a very appropriate container for the watch. Beautiful.
Those are my principles, and if you don't like them . . . well, I have others.
