Subject: [Leica] lens storage solutions (can you ID this case?)

My lenses are black Pelican? Waterproof Cases most of which I got over 15
years ago. I have a half dozen of them.
Makes them very handy and organized... with dividers not foam.
As far as the deluge goes that's not my worry. So in a way they may be
overkill. But maybe better overkill than underkill.
