Stoping at AD's just to look (same as strip clubs, right?)

Looking at everyones watch

Looking at my own watch all the frigin time

My husband just insisted I read this, and I could not have said it better myself. I am also a Rolex widow, so tell your wife I said hi and that we need OUR OWN forum!

After reading these posts i have come to an observation about myself.
I feel i'm a preaty avid WIS I have around 30 high-end swiss watches in my collection. The thing is my best friend always notices all my watches but I RARELY notice other peoples watches, In fact I almost never look unless its right in my face so to speak.
Kinda of weird I thought, and I don't have a clue why I don't look cause I love watches.
