    As an aside, what's a decent number of children?

    Just curious.

    Could you post a couple of pictures? Some of the guys on this forum have never seen a woman before.

    I'll keep it nice, although I warn you this may not end well.

    At the end of the day watches are a nice distraction/hobby for those who can afford to indulge in them, but they mean nothing. Family, bills and all the other day to day stuff is what is important.

    I say this as somebody who will probably never be able to justify buying a Rolex. If I can't afford a luxury product after working very hard, so be it. There's much more important things in life.

    Just checking : tax credits, they’re a life (not lifestyle) subsidy funded from the taxes of other working people, yes?

    If this isn’t a troll post (which I suspect it is), you both know the answer to your question already.

    I love watches as many here do.

    Someone who takes familial responsibilities flippantly and runs up irresponsible debt to buy unnecessary watches while accepting financial support funded involuntarily by others is a selfish rotter. I think that is the accepted phrase we use in the Bear Pit here.

    If he’s agreed to the post, could we read what he has to say on his own account?

    Wow!! Different!!??

    My wife wouldn’t have a clue whether I was wearing genuine or not and to be honest wouldn’t care🤗😂👍🏻
    We both have Rolex and other brands but if I needed the money they go, it’s as simple as that!! I have a core collection of watches that are mostly vintage that I paid below £500 each for and they are my fall back collection !! No matter what those watches seem to stay and get me through each time I have to sell a dream watch !!!

    Not sure how legit the post is as it’s a first for me, seeing someone’s wife come on a forum to ask an open question like that?!?!
    It would be even funnier if the husband is one of us lot ;-)

    My advice is get rid of the lot and have a collection of cheaper watches that you can enjoy no matter what your financial situation is! Some of my favourite watches aren’t expensive but rare!! It’s the chase for most of us, like anything the reality doesn’t always live up to the dream and the longer the chase the bigger the dream!

    This all seems a bit pointless.

    You, he and we all know the answer. You sell the watches until you as a family can afford to waste money. Which is effectively (excepting a small few pieces) what this hobby is in the long term

    Your husband is a loser. If you are real, and your post is genuine then I suggest you leave him and get with a man who isn't a loser. I'm sure many on here would oblige....
    P. S. If you're fat, hairy or ginger, that counts as a bonus in this forum

    The way forward is clear, your going to have to let a couple of the kids go, it's the only way to make ends meet.

    My husband needs opinions please..

    Leave the wife and children behind with the overdraft and focus on what's really important in life: watches and digital photography.

    You should've sold the £5k watch for £4000. You could've then told the hubby that you got £200 for the watch he paid £80 for. So £80 to the hubby, £120 to the joint account and £3800 to your personal savings. You would've made tens of thousands of pounds in a few years. A head-on attack is rarely the best way to go forward.

    Actually, I did that with my first Rolex. I was married and on a fairly tight leash...... 😎😎😎

    A bit extreme, perhaps a couple of nights a week on the game might pay for the new SD43

    So the wife thinks it's best to wait until their financial position is better before the husband can have a Rolex, very sensible. But this wasn't an issue when it came to having kids?

    Now that's sound advice. A man with his priorities in good, solid order. After all, you can't take it with you so enjoy it now! :0)

    For those trying to guess our family dynamics and job situation before we had kids then just don't as I won't be giving you more info than I already have.
    Despite my tongue in cheek comment above, I reckon this is completely genuine. Is your husband going to show his face on here, do you think?

    He does browse this forum a lot, and quite often posts. I just wanted him to see, from other people that there is more to life than these watches.

    And the fact that the watch on his wrist costs more than literally anything in our house (including our car), he is a selfish git for not immediately selling it when caught and putting the money towards either the credit card/credit he bought it on, or paying off the other debts.


    Watches are not life or death.They are more important than that.Tell him to keep the watch and apply for an IVA on Monday morning. Sorted !!
