I wish i could super like your post. Your collection is amazing.. you have so many sport loops! All OEM? Noticed some duplicates but its hard to not double down when you have that many
I have every sport loop except one, and every Nike sport band except one lol. None of them are duplicates though.

What case/trays do you have pictured?

I tried to search but it looks like you have several types.
The case is the Zero Mass Apple Watch Band Case. It holds 40 bands. You can find them on Amazon and Etsy. The trays are the ones TotalMacMove listed above, but I actually stopped using them and bought a second case.

Yeah that’s the one. If you only have 10 and don’t plan to grow too much more, then the smaller one is definitely better. Zero Mass also has a hard travel case that I use for trips.

I used to have my Apple Watch straps in transparent acrylic drawers from Muji, but for me this solution still lacked „visibility“ and I would always take a few out of the drawers to decide which one to wear that day. Not anymore! I got two magnetic whiteboards from IKEA and a lot of strong small magnets. For me, this is ideal as it‘s much easier to pick and choose.

It's an old watch box that I emptied out and been using for storage. There's still some jewelry on the bottom right corner. Will be upgrading to one of the many cases listed in this thread soon, cause I'd rather see them displayed.

I love this solution! Those look like some type of push pin magnet. Did you find those at Ikea too? Any issues with bands falling when you removed a different one?

I got the magnets from Amazon, just look for neodynium magnets, they are pretty strong even in this small size. The push pin type is really convenient for precise placement on the board. And no, the bands don‘t fall off. We have no earthquakes round here, though. ;)

I love this idea. It’s simple and cheap. I’m going to get myself a cork board and do the same. My 132 bands are really dang close to filling my storage drawer box.

Simple, yes. Cheap, not so much.

The neodymium push pin magnets are almost $1/each (20 for $18 plus tax) on Amazon ... you need two magnets for each band... so that's 264 magnets for your 132 bands... at $18/20 pieces, it's almost $240 for magnets plus the cost of the white boards... there are other magnets that are cheaper (60 for $16 plus tax), but they are not the neodymium magnets, and may not hold as strongly - slipping, sliding down the board.

Do you have a cheaper source for the neodymium push pin magnets?

I didn’t realize nor did I read your post. I just looked at the pictures while on break from work. I was thinking of getting a thick cork board with heavy duty push pins and doing that. Thought?
