This was a gift for my husband, he was able to take 3 extra watches on his recent trip.  He collects nice watches (has over 40) and likes to change based on what he is wearing - low profile watches are better with suits, casual watches for short sleeves.  He was able to put 3 different size watches in, but I'm not sure if 3 of the big bulky watches would fit together without banging into each other.  For a normal person (like me), you wouldn't know it isn't genuine leather.  It fits well in luggage because it is round and less bulky than other cases I saw.  I think this is perfect, so unless you want to spend over $100 for real leather, buy this case.
