Meridian - Practical and Useful

Packaging is a funny thing.  Almost like a Russian "Nesting Doll" sometimes!  Layer upon layer, upon layer - and then you finally get to the watch, and you're left with a bunch of packaging to stick in the closet because the box, while pretty, is custom/purpose built to hold a watch in a "display" like manner, and the felt covered cardboard has been super-glued to the innards of the box so that it cannot be used for any other possible purpose - and this is a great shame when you are looking at some of these boxes - they would make great storage for other items, but they appear to have been designed and manufactured merely to display the watch.  Not so with Meridian!
The Meridian watch ships in a custom manufactured canvas and nylon folding case that provides room for your watch, an extra strap.
It also has small compartments for holding the spare parts (strap bars and screws) as well as the tools to change them with!
And again - proudly made in England!
It has been a very good first week!  The watch has kept flawless time and received a great many compliments.  Tomorrow we go more in depth - the but the first impressions are very, very good!
