I have the same watch stand/charger. Love it. Wife got it for me for my bday last year. Don't even know where or how she found it. She's not a nerd like me, and especially not an apple nerd. I was so proud. lol
It is the best watch stand I have owned. It always brings a smile to this Mac enthusiast's face.
I knew it looked like a Master MX - but never saw one in white (been a long time since I looked it up). I see there's now a Master MX 2S that comes in light gray....that's the closest to white I found.
It's the MX Master (original) in Stone color. It's a different color from the Light Gray MX Master 2S.
It's not white though, more sand like. So don't get it if you want pure white.
I love my Stone MX Master. I also get a lot of attention when I'm using it in public, at school, or at work. "What mouse is that?" "Cool color!"
My absolute DREAM setup - Elegant, simple Retina 4K iMac and Bang & Olufsen BeoPlay S8 - by far the best sounding sound system I've ever owned - and I've owned just about them all - everything from high end studio monitors to premium surround sound systems w/ 10" subs.
This thing is acoustically *stunning*
Not really a set up, but I found this old MacBook Pro tucked in behind a few other boxes in the storage area in my basement (forgot I still had it). Powered up, so I figured lets see if I can throw an OS on it. It’s running 10.11.6 like a champ with 4GB of memory. Man how I missed this keyboard.
can the stand fit a ipad with a case??https://www.containerstore.com/s/office/tech-accessories/tablet-ereader-stand/12d?productId=10033951

Good question. A client gifted it to me a few years back - wonder what they thought of the images?
I've just updated, so time to look back on how my setup has evolved:
Around September 2014 I replaced my self built PC with an ex-lease 2009 Mac Pro which came with an apple 20" display, which I supplemented with a pair of 19" Dells.
In January 2015 I replaced all 3 screens with a Philips 40" 4K monitor.
And now the Mac Pro has been replaced with a new 15" 2017 MacBook Pro, Belkin Thunderbolt 3 dock, Rain Design mDock, and a couple of external drive enclosures.
I still have the same desk, lamp, mouse and Big Bang bobble heads, but pretty much everything else has changed.
