Wife has a new box!

Sounds like an old 70's Who song.

She likes her new Rolex holder.

Isn't that a Crown Collection box? Certainly a great watch but not fitting of such a box.
New from AD?

That's quite a box. I've never seen one quite like it before. Very nice!

I threw away the watch that came with the box as I only wanted the box for the wife.. Bought the box for the wife, from a very nice member here, to hold her rings and things and just put that old piece of junk midsize on there for the picture.. I have no idea if it is a Crown Collection box. Just liked the look.

The watch isn't fitting of such a box?

Surely I've misunderstood....

Joe, that's really cool. I had a girlfriend who boasted the same thing to me, but she had a different kind of new box.

Her kegel exercises were making her turn the color of the box so I decided to help her out in a different way. There is an old joke about making the right side jealous of the left........but can't go there in this forum. Have to tell it in the jokes forum.

Really, Joe - what were you thinking! Next time you polish of a can of these you need to save it to hold Melissa's watch:

Congrats. That is a crown collection box. It comes in many different colors. Your wifes watch looks great, in or out of the box.

My wife bought me my own box last year for my birthday because she got tired of me stuffing my stuff in her box.

Joe,

Good looking box you have there. That's about the only box I have seen for ages.

It looks like that box could handle a lot more than what you have in it. Always good to have room to grow.

So, that's what I am doing wrong then. I don't put my hand in my pocket.

Why is that on this forum (me still being a Newbie) someone can post a legitimate subject on boxes of all things and it eventually deteriorates to down to a bloody great laugh.

And I thought I thought I was going to be lynched for my earlier thread on naval lint......

I've been letting this thread ferment for 4 days now without opening it.

Yes, it is everything I expected.

This is a high compliement, Bubba.

Most of us like a nice box, and I thought it would be nice to share about my wife's box, and the one she got for me to put my own stuff in!
