Icon9 I have the worst luck with watches.

I've been a safe technician/locksmith (see avatar : ) for 20 years.

I LOVE my job!

I get to help people, and they pay me for it.

These are what brought me here...

Notice the incorrect time on each.

I have the worst luck with watches.

The Rolex frequently stops running and it's crown pulls off. I sent it out for service, but it came back with a note that it's parts are obsolete.

The mid-size Tudor stopped running the other day and I purchased the woman's watch Christmas last for my wife, but its too small for her to see properly so she wears her "25th Anniversary" Disney watch instead!

I have a new addition on the way, another Tudor.

Whoops...

48, with two "boys" in college.

Mrs. Watch Nazi: NO ROLEX FOR YOU! : )

Hang in there, my friend. The market will come back.

I am 37 and work in Management Consulting (Process Engineering, PMO setup) in Nottingham, UK (recently relocated from SUNNY Florida).....so far I've got 2 SD's (M and V), but hope to add a GMT IIc, DSSD, Sub (2010), and Daytona (2013) to the collection!!

You know you've got Rolexitis bad, when you planned your watch purchases 4 years in advance!!! Might be contacting one of you doctor's but it doesn't seem that ANY of you have found a cure either!!!
