I know this feeling ๐Ÿคช

I have definitely had this conversation ๐Ÿ˜‚. Luckily my wife is pretty tolerant.

Me: B. I've had that.

Wife: No you hadn't!

Me: E. Oh its not a real watch

Wife: Let me see your credit card statements

Me: D. You look very pretty today

ยท

It would be an E for me. E. I have this sold already.

ยท

I sold one ๐Ÿ˜ is another good one.

Sleeping bag in the car time (why I bought an estate)

If your wife notices a new watch you obviously don't have enough watches. Safety in numbers.

ยท

That's why I've been on a Casio binge lately. Much easier for her to shrug off a purchase that costs less than one of her outfits, lol. ๐Ÿ˜

ยท

I have to admit she is the only reason I have myself under control ๐Ÿ˜…

ยท

Z: yes, but it was a package deal with this *insert the name of a gift card to her favorite store here*. And I was thinking of you when I bought it.

ยท

E: All the above. In the style of John Belushi's excuse to Carrie Fisher in The Blue Brothers.

Wife?...never had one of those ๐Ÿค‘๐Ÿ˜

ยท

So, everyone is lying to the wife...

It's very similar to my questions about my wife's handbags or shoes except my wife is much smarter than me. After she tells me she bought it a long time ago, she tells me I was with her and said it looked great. When I inevitably say I never saw it before and ask why it looks so new, she gets mad and accuses me of either not paying attention to her (and just saying yes or it looks great) or not caring. At which point I usually capitulate, apologize, and say "oh I remember now."

For some reason, I don't think this would work if I tried this on her. Good thing that my wife is very supportive of my addiction (probably because when it started, I became much more encouraging of her buying handbags and shoes to give me cover).

My wife doesnโ€™t even look. To her, all my watches look the same. My daughter is the snitch in the family.

Daughter - Dad is that a new watch?

Me - Did you finish your homework?!?

๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚

ยท

Today's purchase - it's such a good deal at 60% off. How can WE turn it down?

ยท

It happen to me so many times that now I say Yeah and so what! She knows I donโ€™t buy watches in the random. Thereโ€™s more watches I wanna buy down pipeline. So she canโ€™t stop me or say nothing.โœŠ๐Ÿฝ

ยท

Regis, I'd like to phone a friend.

ยท

I just keep giving her watches.๐Ÿ˜‰

ยท

I give her the Patek answerโ€ฆ โ€œIโ€™m looking after it for my next generation.โ€

I be like a Rolex dealer sitting there with a straight face, "I don't have any new watches" while it's right there in the watch box in plain sight
