All the time... most folks don't realize there's so many people interested in watches, let alone just one brand. :)

Feras · 29 December 2011, 08:49 PM

I would never show my interest in expensive watches or TRF infront of my in laws or parents. The would consider me crazy and inmature for spending that much amount of money on a watch while i can get any watch to tell me the time for $200

HL65 · 29 December 2011, 08:54 PM

All the time!!

murkeywaters · 29 December 2011, 09:15 PM

Lol, +1. Trf and 6speed are the first and last websites I visit every day.

My wife knows that watches are one of my passions along with TRF. Also my family is aware of my passion and would have no problem with me looking at the site.

Lion · 29 December 2011, 11:09 PM

Yes I do...iPads are wonderful little devices!!!

Rags · 29 December 2011, 11:46 PM

My computer is always on & as soon as I sit down at my desk the first thing I do is log on to TRF. I also might have a tiny problem with obsession.

gwozhog · 30 December 2011, 12:05 AM

Okay so I see the concensus is most of us feel a litttle bit of heat when TRFing in public. Im glad im not the only one. It also seems like the more posts TRF members have the less shame they have. I guess I need to up my anty.

esm · 30 December 2011, 12:17 AM

Of course.

Right now I'm on TRF while sitting at a very nice restaurant in central London having a romantic lunch date with the wife.... While shes gone to the ladies.

Im on TRF so much my 2 yo daughter has caught my addiction like second hand smoke, her two quotes when Im on the macbookpro
"what you doing daddy, chillin?"
"oooh I like that watch daddy. Is that your watch?"

FeelingTheBlues · 30 December 2011, 08:55 AM

I take a look at TRF when I'm at school sometimes, I don't really hide it but I don't try to let everybody know I'm looking at Rolex watches all the time! My family knows I'm on a watches forum and they don't really care so I don't have any problems at home.

keschete · 31 December 2011, 10:06 AM

I check TRF all the time. My notebook computer, that I keep at work has a problem with some type of script running that slows viewing down and it is aggravating.

I don't know how to fix it, otherwise I would be on TRF all day at work....

I am not ashamed of the forum, or of being a watch nut, or of what I paid to have this watch on my wrist. I could have gotten a SS Submariner or Deep Sea / or old Sea Dweller for less than what I spent. I look at my watch and being on the forum as a pleasure and a reward for working all these years. I deserve it. All of you deserve it too!!

Don't let others belittle you for something that you enjoy and that is a good hobby. Better than gambling or a host of other vices much more destructive than a watch habit

TRF is rich with media and links - it could be the business firewall scanning that before passing them on to your browser to display the thread(s)

That is probably the issue. I am not at the hospital, but at an office and we are using the computers all day. But we do have a hidden server that doesn't show up when you look for a connection.

You have to know the server info to access the wireless server. But why would it ONLY do it with TRF. I can look at everything else, news websites, other forums without the same problem.

It is also the same if I turn the computer back on and then off.

It says the script is slowing down my computer and would I like to turn it off. Each page takes about 2 or 3 minutes before it will load.

The Joker · 31 December 2011, 10:19 AM

Have you tried turning your computer off and on again Kaya?

The hospital only allows 1 hour internet access a day, so I spend it on TRF. Then it's back to my room/cell. Cuckoo.

That is terrible! but I am in an office and we all use the computers all day.

Baco Noir · 31 December 2011, 10:30 AM

Yes, and my wife calls is "looking at porn"!!! One night she asked me what I was doing and I said "looking at the forum" and she heard "porn". It's been a joke ever since!!

Oyster1982 · 1 January 2012, 12:08 AM

I look at TRF when I visit my mom, grandparents, around my partner. Yesterday my hubby went over to Verizon with our laptop to get it connected to the internet and when it connected to the hotspot device the homepage that came up was TRF, the guy at the Verizon store was surprised and told my partner that he had a Sub, however he was disappointed that it was not my partner who had the Rolex disease.

SWIMPRUF · 1 January 2012, 12:21 AM

Yes.

bgriz · 1 January 2012, 01:07 AM

My work blocks TRF, so it's on my iPhone all day and at home at night.
