You know you're addicted to watches when...

...you bought two Rolex and a Panerai in a week, and might be facing a divorce soon.

It's easier to ask for forgiveness than for permission, sometimes.

Just sayin'.

...You need to check your wrist not to tell the time or admire your watch but to make sure you didn't put two of them...

Bought the wife a Datejust and Carrera last month, then got myself a Yachtmaster II last week - both very happy. Also doing all the house work and regularly buying her flowers helps!

Got any pics of the Panerai?

You start looking for your next one the same day you bought your last one. Now that is addiction. I do know the feeling

Your wife is busy going through the pain of her first tattoo and you're taking pics of your watch.
