If you’re an avid watch collector, then this piece will assure you that your costly assortment of timepieces won’t be touched. The German-based company Döttling is responsible for the super-sophisticated design. The company took inspiration from the well-known Barcelona Chair that Ludwig Mies van der Rohe had made in 1929, according to [Uncrate](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uncrate-officer-chino). The weight of the safe is a meager 661 pounds and has a modest price tag of $88,000. It does have an ultra-striking exterior, made from black leather and buttoned cushioning. It also has 12 specific watch winders, along with three drawers for safe keeping of any item. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.9/10 - Popularity: 13% | Activity: 37% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/furniture) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Sleek Quilted Safes:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Designing high-end safes with unique and luxurious features. - **Sophisticated Watch Storage:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Developing advanced storage solutions specifically designed for expensive timepieces. - **Inspired Design Elements:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporating iconic furniture designs into functional and stylish safes. ### Where This Applies - **Luxury Safes:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Creating a niche market for custom-made, high-end safes. - **Watch Collecting:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Building platforms or services that cater to the needs of avid watch collectors. - **Furniture Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Exploring collaborations between furniture designers and safe manufacturers to create unique and stylish storage solutions. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Expertly Designed Vaults](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/round-vault-door.md) - [Ultra-Durable Residential Safe Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brown-safe-manufacturing.md) - [Artistic Open-Concept Watch Winders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crown-ultimate-watch-winder.md) - [Opulent Timepiece Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/corum-golden-bridge-table.md) - [Luxury Desk Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rolex-submariner-desk-clock.md) - [Luggage Brand Watch Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rimowa-watch-case.md) - [Architect-Tribute Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/attraction-watch.md) - [Protective Premium Watch Clasps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/watchlock-clasp.md) - [Luxe Film-Inspired Trinkets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/faberg-x-007-octopussy-egg-objet.md)
