Nice collection!  I'm sure one day soon they'll come up with a clinical definition of what we have, but until then ENJOY!  smile8.gif

I don't care what anyone says, there is no "cure" for what we have. As far as addictions go, I can say from experience that it's relatively benign one. Unless those of us with wives get caught with the latest purchase subtlelaugh.gifsubtlelaugh.gifsubtlelaugh.gif. Nice line-up you have. Enjoy them and wear them in good health ThumbsUp02.gif.

I think it best not to fight it; you'll only end up hurting yourself. The scotch will help.

My wife and I were having dinner out last night when she said, "I should have bought you a watch for Valentine's Day." She said it only halfheartedly, but that was all I needed to justify another purchase. Kobold Arctic Diver with date is on the way, if only used, which is the only way to buy Kobold anyway. If she only knew about the BaliHa'i I acquired last month or the Dievas Vortex that should show up within weeks, she would be kicking herself for even suggesting another purchase. So I have some cover, at least.


When I bought the BaliHa'i, I said, "That's it for a while." Yeah, right. It's a disease, no doubt about it. But it's an enjoyable one.

I am in the same boat....though I do not want any more children if my wife found out what I had been buying without her knowing, having children would be an impossibility after she would have finished with me!! :shock:

Bad news: it's not curable! The sooner you accept it, the better off you are, the less money you'll spend on doctors&drugs... and the more
money you'll have for the good news...
Good news: Good advice posted above, scotch will help and there always more wonderful timepieces out there for
you to buy and get your...hum... Fix!!;)
and also we ALL ARE HERE for you! We DO understand and sympathize:)
you have a great collection, thanks for posting your pics!! I'm jealous of your Bali Hai and Boschett:) I also use a point & shoot camera and with practice and more watchessubtlelaugh.gif I got better!!;) so buy more watches, take pics and post away!!!
Welcome to the family and just pray your wife doesn't find
out about ALL your purchases!!
Cheers. Brice

Definition of 3T

= facilitatus maximus !

 

Just have fun mate - back off if the sheer number of watches exceeds the capacity to buy and hold. Treat 'em like stocks and bonds -  ditch the underperformers and focus on the "next big thing"!

Cheers and congrats on a very nice collection of timepieces, photographed really well!

So I was gonna say something like, "Wow those are 5 great watches to take care of Monday - Friday!  But now you've got to start on Saturday and Sunday..."

But then I read the part about the Kobold and Dievas!  You've got it bad alright! :shock:

The best thing about the WIS affliction is that it absorbs so much $$$ that there's nothing left for other vices like drinking, drugs, gambling, or <ladies who provide entertainment>...  See, we're just being RESPONSIBLE here.  toon1.gif
