Wife's SOTC, pt.1
Watches have been a fun hobby I've been able to share with my wife since she started this journey when she gifted me a Speedy in 2019. We often go to California watch gatherings together and we have a fun routine of consulting on our respective daily and special occasion watch choices. The rose gold Laykin et Cie on the Bottom Right was a gift from famed entertainerJack Benny and his wife Mary to their daughter Joan. (She also has a watch that belonged to entertainer Carol Channing.) The Cartier at Lower Left is nearing 100 years old and the gold Rolex Hunter at Top Middle is perhaps 70. I'm hoping to post more of my wife's sprawling collection in the weeks to come since she actively avoids social media. Based on many of the watch forum comments I feel VERY lucky to have a spouse who supports and participates in a common interest.

Still at the beginning of my watch journey with sooo much to learn. I prefer in person gatherings over social media dialog and have a soft spot for vintage watches.

Nice collection - I have a similar, great wife with an interesting collection who doesn’t post. I’ve promised to get her collection posted to the WC group, you’ve inspired me to move it up the list. Here’s just a few:
So much more interesting than my wife's collection.
Stunning collection!
