Finally. I found a compact case for reading glasses that works great for storing 3-4 bands. It fits perfectly in the organizer in my nightstand and also can go in my bag for traveling. I may end up putting a small microfiber cloth in between each band if it looks like they're getting scuffed.
I'll only use it for bands since I plan on either wearing the watch or charging it in my dock at home or just bare with the charging cable while traveling. I keep a spare watch charging cable with my other cables (lightning, USB, etc) in a separate bag.
The case is plain black, zippered, lightweight, and only $4 on Amazon.

I really loved my original case, but had to get a larger case since I've accumulated so many bands. I opted for this one because it held all my bands.

It is larger length/width but narrower, so slips in my drawer or travel bag a lot easier. Although it's not as rigid as my original case, I like it a lot. Especially since it has elastic top-middle-bottom. It keeps the heavy straps from drooping in the middle and falling out.

Nice... what is it/where did you get it?

The plastic box is from Muji, the plastic inserts are 3mm acrylic cut using a laser cutter.

The outer part looks very much like the 3 draw plastic thing I have from Muji for mine. But where did you get the bright green inserts. I'm intrigued.

That is correct. The draws are from Muji, the inserts are 3mm acrylic cut using a laser cutter.

Hi everyone.

So, I've got a double question.
First one is; I travel a lot. Has anyone out there found anything to store your spare Apple Watch straps in while on the move?
And...
Pretty similar, I want to store my watch straps at home but want something quite nice to store them in.
What do you all do to store any spare straps at home?

Mine are thrown in my nightstand drawer (orange, blue, black Sport band + 3rd party link bracelet).

I absolutely love seeing everyone's storage ideas and although I don't normally post because it's been a while, I had to share the following. Tech Swiss finally came back with their leather watch holder but they also realized (thanks to TomTomTuning) that they also make great AW strap holders. Here is their link and also a link to order their case which is now back in stock at their site but not on Amazon. Hope this helps :)

Such a great looking holder for the Apple Watch bands. Huge shame that they don't ship to the UK.

Not specific for an Apple Watch however, I use one of these:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/JACOB-JONES...qid=1457368039&sr=8-9&keywords=mens+desk+tidy

You can feed the charging cables through the back (it has 3 slots at the back, where the cable can come out the top (where the tablet is sitting in that picture), so that the cable is hidden inside but still charges your device) so you can charge whatever device you need to (watch, phone, tablet, whatever!!). I use it for my Apple Watch next to my bed + I I have my other watches on display on it. I can also use the drawer underneath to store my favourite straps (it can probably hold around 5 or 6 straps).

Perfect for me!!
:cool:

I had the same problem with a number of these as they are not made specifically for Apple bands. The last one I ordered is made specifically for Apple bands and fits every band my wife and I own. It really helped organize my bands in a visible and easily accessible way. When I kept it at my office, it would be hidden in a drawer, but now I keep it right on my bedstand. Definitely recommend!

Thank you Paul Bol! Awesome. It looks like I can stack these for additional storage and display too.

I have the same one that Qqueenie posted above. I love it! It sits on the dresser and allows me to see every option that I have (and, sadly, to display new ones, so my boyfriend now knows exactly how deep this sickness runs. Lol). for travel, I have a black nylon roll-up case that holds whatever bands I'm bringing and has smaller pockets for jewelry as well.
