The Centenary 12-Slot Watch Case is a refined expression of personal curation, designed for collectors who view their timepieces as part of their identity. With space to house twelve watches, this handcrafted case offers elegance, precision and a touch of quiet drama.
Made in England from vulcanised fibreboard, the charcoal grey body is accented with hand-applied black leather corners and polished gold-tone fittings. The combination of matte textures and warm metallic detailing gives the case a timeless silhouette with a confident modern edge. Every element is shaped and assembled by hand in Globe-Trotter’s Hertfordshire workshop, using tools and techniques passed down through generations.
Inside, the case is lined with soft chamel fabric in a neutral tone. Twelve cushioned compartments are carefully positioned to protect and showcase your watches, from slim vintage classics to bold, oversized designs. The interior offers both clarity and care, making each piece feel individually considered.
This 12-slot format is ideal for collectors building a serious rotation or archiving timepieces of significance. Whether placed on a shelf or integrated into a wardrobe, the case becomes a centrepiece—practical and poetic in equal measure.

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.
