Wife and watches

Wives and watches are like water and oil they just don't mix

But the right mixture like Oil and Vinegar is A perfect Match 😉 

·

Buy the wife a Cartier and watch that mix quickly change.  

·

Probably because it’s your hobby and not her’s

·

She is just fine as long as I change the batteries on her quartz watches.

·

Aside from all the quirky and embarrassing remarks; try husbands and watches! Not a good mix either...

·

It likely depends on he spouse. My sweetheart is not only very supportive. She is occasionally also my enabler and has purchased several beauties that are in my collection as thoughtful and very welcome 'just because' gifts. 

I hope that I'm not the only one here who's lucky enough to have a partner who encouraged my interests!! 

·

Well that didn't go well...

·

My wife just sent me a link to a local estate sale with some watches, and asked me if she should go and try to get them?   

·

My wife does that too.  I brought up the Seiko GMT and she said,"aren't you saving for your 40th bday watch.." 

·

Came into this post like...

...then read the comments and am reminded how awesome the WC fam is.

Nothing to add.

My wife is very supportive in my hobby. And whenever she is not supportive on something, I find that I would usually do well to listen. 😅

·

My wife enjoys watches every bit as much as I do.  She has a very nice collection that she wears regularly.  

·

my gf happen to be looking at her phone when i give her some history lesson about wristwatch 😂😂. but i believe there are a few women that into watch like here at watchcrunch

You should post a picture of her watchbox...my wife jumped in with me so we'd both be interested

Very fortunate that the women in my life appreciate (and humour) my hobby. 

Real Wife let's me take the odd pic with her (boobs) in it for Instagram. Allows me a short time during meals to get the shot before getting annoyed - "food's getting cold..."

Second Wife (exgf from 20 years ago that's now become my BFF and gets along with Real Wife) is into high fashion so loves the jewelry aspect of watches. Allows same latitude for pics (boobs).

Lastly, girlfriend (lower case 'g'... more recent friend, but youngest of the 3 so the other 2 don't like her lol) enjoys getting dolled up & attending watch related events that the other two are tired of now. Allows same latitude for pics (boobs). These were from a Hamilton Preview Event 😁

Exactly, which is why it's important to keep it vague. 

Wifey, "Do you have more than 50 watches? 60?" 

Me,  * crickets *

This is my experience with my lovely wife as well 😊👍

Very cool...taking notes...thanks for posting!  I will definitely share with my wife

How many pairs of shoes do your wives have?

·

My wife 37

·

My wife made fun of me and my watches she thinks is dum and stupid. I told her be lucky I could of been doing a lot bad things like drinking or hanging with friends playing video games all day and not working. So she left me alone supports my hobby now and appreciate for who I am now.

·

I though I lost my Timex once. I later found out that it was on her wrist because she had just found out about what indiglo is and had fun lighting up the watch.

My wife and watches mix very well, and she bought them all herself with her own money 😛

I'm glad my wife is also into this hobby!

·

I just got a really cheap, but fun, watch (I'll post soon), and my wife says "why did you buy another watch?"

She has a one-watch collection of a Tag quartz diver.

·

My wife loves jewelry. I love watches and she does also. So we’re good. ❤️

·

On afternoon, my wife and I were heading out to a museum. She looked at me and said, "hmmm, something's missing from your outfit. This should help." Then she handed me a red box with a Cartier Santos inside.

Mine would put it in a drawer and never wear it....

I am a watch admirer and small collector, my Lady is a G-Shock enthusiast and collector with the odd other watch thrown in, we get along fine in the watch collecting hobby which is fortunate for both of us 😎
