I guess Dr. Tom isn't the only one who has a wife who does this..

Found this, this morning and and started laughing. Oh well. Great watch, she loves it and gets a lot of use and abuse.

35mm yacht-master





At home it's always put away in the green ROLEX snap shut little carrier RSC gives you. On the road after dinner and wine it goes into a plastic cup with everything else


Cheers. Have a good weekend

True that ! I wouldn't dream of saying anything. She already thinks I'm mental anyways due to this watch fetish.

Gotta love em though. If I put one of her purses on the ground as if I needed to move it, I get a knife thrown at me lol

At least they are Rolexes that are built like a tank. I caught my wife gardening with her Cartier on.

My wife won't even wear her Datejust. It just sits in the safe so there is no danger of it getting scratched.

It was easier watching the end of Ol' Yeller than seeing those diamonds on the crystals.

Gotta admit some of us could learn a thing or two from our significant other. mine…wears her Rolex watches every day doing everything and enjoying life without a worry or concern about the watch

she loves her watches and wears them, period. no worries of scratches or other "stupid" things

my guess is she gets a lot more out of her watches than many do!!

although I follow the same philosophy i.e. wear them and no worries, I at least "try" to no beat the heck out of them

I truly believe it's only us WIS's that give a damned about these watches...my girl wears hers for everything and anything. Occasionally when I here her "whack it" and I'll say "what the hell was that!?"...her reply is always the same " what are you talking about???" Then looks at me like I'm out of my mind But she'd fist fight ya if ya tried to take it from her

Well, she likes it and that's all that matters. Great country, but the president was about to be impeached, on hold for now. The economy is a mess and they still have to get through the 2016 Olympics. Then the real implosion will happen. Major recession now. Back to being corrupt again. President Dilma is so disliked.

Thankfully mine only wears a citizen for now. She has shown some interest and I'd gladly buy her one but every time I offer to take her to the AD she says she likes the one she has. To put her interest in watches in perspective, if you asked her what kind of watch she wears, she would have to read it off the face to you! Haha

Those pics make me cringe
But I guess all those watches survive and are enjoyed, and that's what matters most
