When it's time for me to bite the dust I would gracefully pass it on to my son Keith and hopefully to my grand children.......

My wife is going to bury me with all my watches and have the coffin spin around for 20 seconds (CW and ACW) once every 5 minutes.

Possibly opening the thing up every 5 years to have them serviced?

I mentioned to my wife a while ago that I want to be buried with my DD.

She laughed in my face and said, "Yeah right! I'll chop your bloody arm off in the church!"

So, I guess she's not going for it.

BUT seriously, I'll leave them too my family, but I'm sure they'll keep a few and sell the rest.

I can't and don't expect my family to have my passion for watches and that's fine with me, whether it's a watch or money they want/need, at least I know that one or the other is helping them out.


John.

No need for that. She'll run off with your best friend - that should be enough to get you spinning in your grave.
