Now comes the friction with the wife. At this time I believe she said "Mike get your arm down, nobody wants to see another picture of your watch". I humbly disagree as I know several other WIS who never tire of seeing a Day Date with ivory pyramid dial.

Can you see the disgust on her face in this one? I'm not sure if it is because I asked her to turn her wrist so I could see the Pepsi bezel or if it is because I casually commented on how the sheep hat perfectly matched her sweater. And would she like one for Chritsmas?



Anyway these pics are just for me and any other watch weirdos (her words not mine) out there.
Best,
Mike
What a lovely thing for a wife to say about her husband's passion.

FWIW, I can't understand having 30 pairs of shoes either.

Last time I showed my new girlfriend my collection of pics of my collection or Roliies, she left me saying I'm maniac. May be...

But she was collecting handbags!

You are lucky to have such a great family as they are to have you.

I know that look. I know it WELL in fact.

God help you.

You can always make it up to her though, somehow.
Beautiful family and beautiful watches. Many years of good health to all of you. Merry Christmas as well.

I think you need to start a thread by requesting wrist shots from TRF members...print them out in color, and wrap her XMAS gifts in the print outs!

Based on her reaction, it might be a bad time to talk about getting another watch!

Great looking family!

This is the first and only TRF thread that I have actually laughed out loud from. The look on her face is priceless!!! Something all us married men can relate to I'm sure...
