I was told.....

For a quick laugh: I was showing a coworker my next acquisition (WG DJII), and she stated that "I needed a girl friend so I stop buying Rolex watches." I asked her "What does that say about girl friends?" She couldn't answer...

What she really means is that you need a girlfriend so that she can nag you about all the $$ you spend on watches...
What you really need is a girlfriend who's a WIS...

Enjoy it while you can... I have been married for working on 14 years and now with three kids... I wish I could pull off acquiring several watches in a short time-frame AND be allowed to get away with it... but I wouldnt trade my life for it either...

I used to wince when my wife would get an expensive bag, she eventually developed a taste for Rolex and now has 3 of them, heh.
