Could watches lead to my divorce!
Always liked watches and now my partner has kind of given me the go ahead to "treat" myself but without specification of and spending limits.
Admittedly she is awesome and doesn't expect me to be stupid but if I added up all the watches I want. And I do mean want rather than like there would certainly be more than a few raised eyebrows. The list isn't exhaustive and I don't think I am going mad but I really like divers so will end up with the usual suspects. Omega PO, SM300, Rolex Sub/Sea Dweller. But straight away there goes £10k! On a hobby! Thats before I even look at the forum and start thinking Rolex GMT Pepsi or the gorgeous Heuer Autavia GMT (want one).
You can only wear one watch at a time and I will only occasionally wear anything more than my Seiko beater.
Is this normal or is it just like bikes where the correct number of bikes is either N+1 or "number of bikes leading to divorce minus 1".
Could watches lead to my divorce!
A great thread....and, with the talk of bikes, reminded me of a friend (not me....really!).
His wife knew he owned 2, but he had bought another brand new specimen and stowed it at another friend's place until he detected a moment of wifely weakness. That moment took over 3 years to arrive..
She admitted to having stopped using contraception (clearly without telling him) and thus was expecting their third child. He was hopping mad, but not enough so to miss the opportunity.
He then admitted to spending £12k on his 'new' bike and announced he was going to buy an additional one (at another £10k). Such opportunities should never be wasted.
