Exactly what I needed

Exactly what I needed. It would have been even batter if it had 4 wheels to ease when traveling with multiple bags (so you don't need to tilt to roll).

This is a great case!!!

This is a great case!!! Didn't think it was big like that, but with the dividers, it can hold a lot of my photography gear when working an event. I would definitely recommend this case!

Pelican has a great reputation and this is the genuine thing. The price was great, ordering easy and shipping quick.

While maintaining an unbreakable, watertight, dustproof, chemical resistant, and corrosion-proof design, the 1690 Watertight Hard Case with Cubed Foam & Wheels in Desert Tan by Pelican offers unparalleled protection for your valuable equipment. Crafted from Ultra High Impact structural copolymer, this case boasts exceptional strength and durability, ensuring your gear remains safe and secure in even the most challenging conditions.

The case features an exclusive 1/4" (6.4 mm) neoprene o-ring and ABS 'easy-to-open' latches, providing a perfect seal. An automatic purge valve is included for quick equalization following changes in atmospheric pressure, making this case an ideal choice for travel and outdoor adventures.

Designed with convenience in mind, the case is equipped with heavy-duty wheels and a retractable extension handle for easy transportation. Large 2-person fold-down carrying handles are also included, adding to its versatility.

Inside the case, your equipment will find a snug home in the high-density foam or padded dividers, offering superior protection against impact, vibration, or shock. A customizable nameplate is included, allowing for personalization (engraving available at an additional cost), adding a touch of individuality to your case.

As the largest case ever produced by Pelican, the 1690 Watertight Hard Case with Cubed Foam & Wheels in Desert Tan is the ultimate solution for safeguarding your equipment while on the move.
