I guess it makes sense if you need it. I always wear my watch until I take it off for charging at night. However, if I found the need for a case to store/keep it in I'd probably use the case it came it. That's free

Who else laughed out loud when you clicked the link and in huge letters it stated "ships in 4-6 weeks."
Apple has forever ruined us...
That Mophie looks excellent.
The Poetic looks to be hugely design-flawed for my liking. It relies on you actually completely un-looping the band, it appears. That means you can't use it with the Milanese loop (which you can't completely un-loop), unless my eyes are deceiving me, since you you can't slide the Watch onto the stand from the side. Am I missing something or is that true?
----------
FYI, you can use a fingernail to scrape off the Spigen logo on the Watch protector. I did that in less than 20 seconds to mine. Looks much cleaner without the logo. And no, it doesn't damage the plastic at all. The logo comes off SO easily.
Oh, then I can see why someone with the Milanese loop might not want the Poetic stand. That shouldn't be a problem for me since I have the Sport Gray Watch with the black band. I think it will look very nice on the gray Poetic stand.
It's also not for those with Leather Loops that are able to take the Watch off without de-looping (as I do). Like you say, for the sports bands this won't be an issue. Still, surprised that Poetic designed it this way...
I like how the Pad & Quill Luxury Pocket Stand folds up for travel ⬇︎
$80 is a little expensive (although I'm sure it's well made).

Sorry if this has been posted before but there is one on Groupon right now:

You can find that stand for around $10 on Amazon. A lot of folks are unhappy with it, saying the cable doesn't stay in and the hole isn't big enough for the charger to fit properly. There's an entire thread saying to not buy that one. For the price though, I don't think you can complain much, unless it somehow damages the watch.
I just ordered the aluminum version of the BLOC Power bank from Boostcase.
It looks like preorders are still on sale for anyone that is interested.

twelve south too
Mine just arrived today. It's ok. The one thing I don't like is the cover for the cable behind the stand. It's cheap plastic with a paper like surface. I thought the whole thing would be aluminum (except for the scratch collars, of course). Otherwise it is as advertised and seems heavy enough. I put the extra screw and allen wrench under the cover, with tape to keep them from rattling. Never know when you might need a spare screw. They look like they could strip easily.
In retrospect, I wish I had waited for the Nomad stand. It works essentially the same way and appears to be solid aluminum throughout. But, I had to have it fast! lol

Ugh, that's so ugly I can't even justify the $18 it costs. I just requested a cancellation from the seller, hopefully they don't try to stiff me on it.
really?
my stand? The orzly one?
I thought it looked really nice. Especially next to my macbook
what other options are there? Iv seen the spigen one and its really light and easy to knock over. Also has that silly writing on the base. Also i dont want a stand which doesnt house my iphone as well
Do you know of other better options on amazon? I prefer to only buy from amazon as there no questions return policy is brilliant
I also have a cheap one called twitfish stand. It does the job but doesnt house the iphone

Honestly, at this moment, all the stands I like are out of my price range. I'm going stand-less for now.
And I didn't mean to be rude, I'm glad you like it. I just think the pad for the watch is way too big and it looks awkward with the phone also on it. Not surprisingly the promotional photos make it look better.
Looks like I got my cancellation.

Is there any protection on the stand where the phone sits, rather not have metal-metal contact. Also, is the phone stable when vibrating?
Hi vito
there are rubber pads where the phone sits. Maybe you can check on the orzly website as it shows the pads
I really really like the stand. I will upload more pictures to show how it looks next to my macbook
I just received mine and am returning it immediately. Poor quality, definitely NOT "luxury"! Rough wood in places, plus some unsanded edges do not equal $70 IMHO.
That's a shame, P&Q are usually pretty good. Get it replaced especially at that price.
This is the first product I've purchased from them, I was definitely disappointed. I have returned it.
