    How do you organise your straps?

    I doubt my problem is unique so thought I would see if anyone has found an elegant solution.

    Like most forum members I have a few watches, quite a few in fact (30+) and many of those have multiple straps - you know, the usual mix of bracelets, leather, rubber, nato, curved end, straight end....

    I have some adequate watch storage boxes, but find my spare straps are becoming harder and harder to keep organised. Has anyone found an elegant solution to organising their spare straps?

    There isn't much choice I'm afraid for strap storage - cheap or expensive.However I may have a new solution.contacted kukiworks and they are going to convert one of their watch rolls to a strap roll for me.I'll post when I get it.

    Want a watch with a leather strap, put a watch with a leather strap on.

    Want a watch with a mesh, put a watch with a mesh on.

    Want a watch with a bracelet, put...

    Don't even know what that is. And I hope that state of affairs continues indefinitely.

    Watches that are versatile enough to suit many strap colours and types, and usually make it easy to switch straps (i.e. drilled lugholes).
