The watch stand includes a base support, a multisided open-ended sleeve extending from the base support, and a post configured to be removably inserted into an opening of the sleeve and fixedly positioned thereon. The post includes an angled support surface that is configured to retain a watch charger and a helical groove that encircles the exterior of the post that is configured to receive and manage a cable wrapped thereabout. The base support may be sloped and may include a lip structure on one side, a cable management system on the underside, and a wireless charging surface on the top side. The height and/or orientation of the angled support surface relative to the base may be configurable or adjustable.
