I hate TRF can't watch TV or Films now

I hate TRF as it has made me look at every watch on TV and in Films that the stars/actors are wearing. But has any one like me noticed how many more TV presenters are wearing Rolex, on UK TV I have noticed Ant & Dec,Gok Whan and a few others. Also started to see more on TV actors as in the Bill and other Dramas, I think that I need help to stop looking and try to watch the programmes or Films.

Yes, I'm having the same problem. I look to see what watches people are wearing. Also this Forum is cutting into the time I might use to actually watch TV!!!
Is there some kind of cure that I'm not aware of???

dont worry mate i have the same bloody problem,so annoying.i was watching spooks recently and all i was looking at were the watches that the characters were wearing.imagine my pride when i saw harry pierce wearing an omega moonwatch.i called the mrs over tell her that i was the proud owner of the same model.she just rolled her eyes and walked off.

You must develop the talent of one eye on the monitor and one on the tv.

After several weeks you will become like one of our more famous yet anonymous members!
