Custom Case Designs Watch Case Anyone?

[Tknmn]

I was doing some web tonight searching for watch box and came across a company named Custom Case Designs. They produce a line of hard cases similar to Pelican. However unlike Pelican, the the foam is precut and no Pick N Pluck is needed as seen here in a picture borrowed from their site. The pre-cut foam looks more "finished" than that of the Pelican's Pick N Pluck foam.

Any one here have any experience with CCD? What's the quality like in comparison to Pelican products? Price is rather reasonable at $45 for a case to hold 8 watches.

Thanks in advance for your comments.

I have the case pictured. The problem with precut is that the foam isnt large enough to make my bracelet watches tight. Therefore they flop around. My wrist is only 7.5" so it isn't that they are unusually large or anything. I just ordered a pelican box to customize.

Yeah, I bought this case as I didn't really case to get the Peilcan.
However, I found the cut outs on this case too shallow for my watches on leather straps such that the watches sit above the foam surface.
Also the foam cushions are too small for my bracelets as you mentioned (I too have a 7.5" wrist). I'm going to write to the company to ask if they can cut me some larger sized cushions for my watches with bracelets.

I think there is room for improvement here.

If you look at the link below, some had the idea of using pipe insulation to beef up the foam inserts on a pelican. It would probably work here.


Thrilled with new PELICAN CASE
