Help! I might be in trouble.

My wife is starting to suspect I might have a problem. For the last 6 or 7 years I have exclusively worn an Apple watch after having some health issues and at the suggestion of my doctor. But at the start of the year I decided to wear “real” watches again and went out and picked up the Rolex. And it started to snowball from there. 5 watches later, I think she’s had enough.

6 doesn’t seem so bad

Do you have other expensive hobbies? Are you financially responsible (needs > wants)?

Assume she also spends on fashion related things that give her happiness. 🤷

Not counting the half dozen I already had.

Average 2/year still seems ok?

As long as you can financially manage the 3 then ✌️

I think part of the problem is the 3 of them have been in the last two weeks.

Take a step back and now enjoy what you have. Don't let the watch addiction slip into buying addiction.

Ok, ok, just hear me out.

P.O. Box and same color watches. She’ll never know.

Tell me more about that Mason. I have seen it on their website. So far I only have a strat-o-timer. Love the dial color on that one.

It’s the Canton. I think it’s the last one they had. It’s been discontinued. It really has become my favorite, sometimes I just take it out of the box and stare at it. If all of their watches are of this quality, I see more in my future.

I always thought safes became gun incubators

That yellow G-Shock looks so badass.

Howdy, neighbor! 😀 Admit to her that you'd like to collect watches as a hobby, and then promise to limit your purchases to within reason (whatever "within reason" is for you) and be as transparent as possible. Happy wife = happy life. 😀
