The Centenary 12-Slot Watch Case is a sophisticated horological companion, handcrafted for collectors who appreciate both precision and artistry. Designed not just to store, but to celebrate a personal collection, this piece transforms functional storage into a curated interior statement.
Each case is meticulously made in England from vulcanised fibreboard, a signature material prized for its strength and lightness. Its structured silhouette is framed by hand-applied black leather corners and finished with gleaming gold-tone fittings, creating a striking visual contrast that balances heritage craftsmanship with opulent detailing.
Within the case, twelve individual compartments are lined in soft chamel fabric in a pale, neutral tone. Each is fitted with a cushioned insert to hold a variety of watch sizes securely in place. From vintage pieces to bold modern styles, the case protects each timepiece from movement, dust, and scratches, offering both visual harmony and structural assurance.
Skilfully produced in Globe-Trotter’s Hertfordshire workshop, the gold fittings add a refined sense of occasion to this already iconic silhouette. Designed for display in the home or private dressing space, the 12-slot case is ideal for collectors who wish to showcase their horological world in a piece that reflects their own sense of style and care.
For smaller selections, consider the 6-Slot Watch Case. For refined travel, the 3-Slot Watch Case offers a compact and elegant companion.

Vulcanised Fibreboard
The main structure of the Jewellery Box is crafted from Globe-Trotter’s proprietary Vulcanised Fibreboard, comprising 14 layers of recycled paper, cotton, and wood pulp from sustainable sources. These layers are bonded with zinc and compressed under steam and pressure, resulting in a shell that is exceptionally lightweight, strong, and exclusive to Globe-Trotter. This material is chosen for its unmatched durability and its refined, iconic appearance.
Vegetable-Tanned Leather
All leather elements, including the hand-moulded corners, trims, handles and fastening details, are made from vegetable-tanned hide. This traditional tanning method uses only natural plant extracts to create leather of exceptional strength and character. Over time, it develops a rich patina, ensuring that every case becomes ever more individual with each journey.
Ethical Sourcing
All leather is ethically sourced, with full traceability and a commitment to animal welfare and environmentally responsible practices.
Internal Tray and Compartments
The interior features a removable wooden tray, precisely crafted for lightness and structure. The tray and compartments are lined with soft, premium cotton or cotton-blend fabric to protect jewellery and delicate items from scratches. Each compartment is finished with hand-cut vegetable-tanned leather trims for an elevated touch.
Handle
The top handle is made from reinforced, vegetable-tanned leather, bonded, pressed, and hand-finished to deliver comfort and durability.
Lining
The interior, including the tray and compartments, is lined with finely woven cotton or cotton-blend fabric, chosen for its gentle feel and long-lasting quality.
Locks and Hardware
The Jewellery Box is equipped with a precision-engineered combination lock and fittings crafted from carbon steel or solid brass, finished in gold, chrome, or signature tones. Each piece of hardware is selected for its secure functionality and refined aesthetic.
Serial Plaque
A unique, individually numbered metal plaque is placed inside every Jewellery Box, certifying authenticity and providing a lasting mark of provenance.
