wife or girlfriend breaking your rolex

Get her a punching bag with a cover that has a printout of your watches..

Edit:
Very sorry for you loss, but she’s displacing her anger it seems. Counseling like others have suggested needs to be given a shot.

I'm guessing she is a real looker and great in the sack, otherwise no sane male would put up with that crap.

Sorry for your loss. The damage is obviously intentional and a symptom of underlying problems which can be best dealt with by individual and couples counseling providing all parties are willing. Lock your watches up immediately (although your other valuables may be targeted) and set some new ground/boundry rules. This is plainly abusive immature behavior and not acceptable. If your "Bond for Life" is a religious issue, you might speak with your clergy for guidance. Good luck and Peace.

I apologize for not taking this seriously earlier and making jokes. Knowing what I know now, I wish you well.

I think this post may have been a cry for help, and I'm glad that many of us have expressed proper sympathy and advised you to seek a professional. All the best.

Professional grief counseling is in order, not advice gleaned from an internet watch forum just because she broke some watches. There's nothing more deeply distressing than losing a child.

I agree and retract a bit from my earlier statement. Throw some of that 5 figure watch money at a solid therapist and see if that helps. It will take significant time for both of you and it may just work. If she says no or it does t work. Then you must flee.

I have to ask, is she blonde or brunette?

Very sorry to hear of your loss, it must be heartbreaking.

I would strongly recommend some counselling, its important she manages her anger before she does something more drastic.

It seems the anger issue predates your sons death if she broke your first watch a few years ago and your son passed last year.

Sorry dude but this is messed up. Your gf has issues. The other way round and you’d be labeled a beater. Take your watches and dust.

When I first saw the pics, I thought the damages looked deliberate.

Upon further reading, I think some professional help is needed, beyond Rolex forum.

Sorry for ur loss.

Well said. I think this issue is beyond the scope of what this forum is about. It also is unfortunate the real issue wasn't revealed until well into the thread, which has led to a number of inadvertently insensitive responses by those posting without having read far enough to understand what is going on.

OP, I am so sorry to hear about what you have been going through, both with the sad demise of your son and the current anguish with your partner. Nobody in this world is perfect BUT, destroying the personal property of a loved one for no reason other than lashing out or being grief stricken is not the answer.

No doubt you both love and care for each other, you both should seek professional advice but be mindful you can take a horse to water but can’t make it drink. If she feels her actions are not something which requires attention then you may be in for a long long wait till she realises it.

I think I speak for us all here on TRF when I say that we all wish you the best and pray your issue is resolved in a amicable and professional and safe manner.

P.s - I have dealt with this issue in the past before my marriage to my wife. If you ever want to talk please feel free to PM me, as I know what you’re going through to some extent.

God speed

Your problems are greater than a watch ! If you stay in this relationship, nothing but turmoil. Run, run hard, run fast, don’t look back.

You've got bigger issues than broken watches if that's how she reacts.

Hmmm...

Like others, I can only imagine what the loss of a child would do to you emotionally. That’s tough and I’m sorry for your loss.

But there’s some real deep rooted issues going in here that may prove too difficult to solve.

One things for sure....your wife needs some kind of counselling.

I'm surprised how many people take the effort to reply to a post without actually reading more than the first couple of comments, or at least scanning it for more posts by the OP or reading the last few comments. That's not meant to be an insult to anyone because I am sure no one means offence, but I'm just genuinely surprised, its like commenting on a news article after reading only the headline.

Clearly she is hurting from the death of your son. Professional help is needed to get thru this. If you are truly committed to helping her, you will get some assistance for her. In the meantime put the valuables in a safe place. But you have to protect yourself this could lead to legal trouble.

Is this a girlfriend or wife? Marriage counseling can help if she is your wife. If she is your girlfriend, throw her out on her arse.

Sorry to hear about the loss of your son. Obviously incredibly tough and you guys have been through a ton together. Best bet is probably therapy, if not already.

At an attempt at humor, I’d say start buying SS metal pieces to minimize the cost for new parts
