Favorite Sound

I seriously think I may have a problem. One of my favorite sounds is when my Rolex changes date. At midnight, I hear that click and it puts a smile on my face.

Anyone else have the same problem?

Yes, I know of another person who shared your perception but a cocktail of Risperdal, Zyprexa & Paxil proved efficacious in mitigating albeit not fully eliminating this symptom.

(Whatever floats your boat, we live once!)

I too enjoy the sound my watch makes and find myself staring at the dial during the course of a typical day. I have to go now it's time to take my meds(and my straight jacket awaits me)!!!

The old school Ducatis, like Foggy's 916 running at full song, that is a sound I will never get out of my head.
And a 250cc, Two Stroke MX bike grabbing a handful of throttle in third gear, just before jumping a set of triples. (BRAAAP!!!)
Wrong forum, but you asked...
