Consider the time and attention we spend poring over spec sheets on each new watch purchase. Water resistance, shock protection, anti-magnetism, complications — we expect an enormous amount out of the watches we wear every day. Yet, when it comes time to travel, many of us rely on simple watch pouches or rolls, resulting in our valuable watches being stored with relatively little protection. For Temporal Goods, these flexible leather solutions simply weren’t good enough; what if they could design a watch storage case with similar attention to detail that watch brands dedicate to the watches themselves? Drawing upon its founder’s experience in engineering race cars as well as an unbridled passion for watches, Temporal Goods has launched the Rigid Case — a watch travel and display case that’s as thoughtfully designed and engineered as your watch itself.
The Rigid Case is crafted from aircraft-grade carbon fiber and machined aluminum and is proudly made in the USA. Temporal Goods chose these materials for several reasons. First and foremost, these materials are strong. Combined, they make the Rigid Case water-resistant and crushproof to 500lbs — more than enough to handle the abuse of indifferent airport luggage handlers. In addition, these materials were chosen for longevity; they simply won’t wear out over time. Temporal Goods is confident enough in that claim to offer a lifetime warranty. If your case no longer functions, they’ll fix it at their expense.
All interior surfaces of the Rigid Case are covered in foam-lined microsuede, ensuring that the watch will remain factory fresh. Indestructible on the outside, soft and pillowy on the inside: exactly what’s needed to protect your watch against the inevitable bumps and bruises that come with travel. Yet, despite the high levels of protection offered by the Rigid Case, it remains compact enough to easily slip inside a briefcase.
The Rigid Case protects your watch throughout your journey; however, if the worst should happen and your luggage is stolen or misplaced, Temporal Goods also gives you the option to add an AirTag for some added security. An optional adapter unobtrusively attaches an AirTag to the base of the Rigid Case, allowing you to track its location via the Find My app on an iPhone. Though you’ll hopefully never need it, the AirTag option adds some extra peace of mind.
The Rigid Case wasn’t only designed to get your watch to its destination, but also to allow you to display your watch in style once you arrive. Temporal Goods prides itself on a design ethos that places form and function on equal footing. To that end, they’ve designed the lid to seamlessly stack underneath the case, allowing you to display your case on your desk, dresser, or wherever your travels take you.
Temporal Goods has established its brand on the guiding principles of being design-forward, making things responsibly, and building things to last. With their first release in the watch space, it’s clear that Temporal Goods is staying true to each of those principles. The Rigid Case is bombproof in its construction, yet stylish enough to be worthy of display. By crafting its products in the USA, Temporal Goods utilizes American-made components to help ensure that the people making its products are afforded a livelihood. For example, the carbon fiber in the Rigid Case is made in Utah, the aluminum components are machined in Michigan, and the watch pillow is sewn in Florida. Finally, by using high-end materials and construction, the brand is happy to offer a lifetime warranty, knowing that there’s little chance you’ll ever need it.
The Rigid Case by Temporal Goods is a crushproof watch case that you can easily slip inside your bag on travels near and far. Made in the USA of aircraft-grade carbon fiber and machined aluminum, the case is designed to be an object you’ll look forward to seeing every day. The case doubles as a display stand to show your watch on your desk or dresser and it can also hold an Apple AirTag tracker via an optional adapter. The Temporal Goods Rigid Case is available now for $350 USD; however, aBlogtoWatch readers can receive $25 off using the code ABTW!22. For more information, be sure to visit temporalgoods.com.
