I'm starting to develop a bad habit of checking out guys watches whenever I'm out and about.
Can't help it but my eyes always seem to wonder to their wrists, my girlfriend thinks I'm obsessed but I just appreciate nice watches.
I play alot of hold 'em and always notice a lot of nice watches at the table.

Was in the barbers today and the bloke sitting next to me was wearing what I believe was an AP Royal Oak Offshore. Earlier at lunch I was checking out another guys watch and managed to catch a glimpse of the Rolex crown emblem on the clasp.

Bad habit because seeing some of these watches in the flesh makes me want to go out and buy one.

Is it just me or do others suffer from this lol?

It's not a bad habit. I check out peoples' watches. And what, your girlfriend doesn't notice when some chick has the Louis Vitton purse she's been craving?

I do it all the time. My wife rolls her eyes when I comment, so I stopped doing that. I still think it though!

I promise if you use that argument though, you will get the response of "It's not the same thing!" :nono: :huh

Well, that's the way a woman's mind works and we cannot do anything to change it, is there? :poke:

Except maybe buying the damn LV purse or bag or whatever :wink:

Strange as it may seem, my wife recorded a scene from NCIS the other day for me to see where there was a Breitling inside a watch box, among other watches. She wasn't sure it was a Breitling but she was alert enough to record the scene for me to check.

So you see, with proper training.... :wink:

Tomcat....did you have to resort to a shock collar to get her trained? I've got a new lady myself and I'm just getting her paper trained at the moment, but would like her to be WIS trained. Just curious what method you used...I kind of like the shock collar, but only cuz I like to watch her jump when I hit the button :twisted:

No, no, no, no shock collar necessary.

Actually, this is the collar she wanted me to get for her :twisted:

after what getting my B01 was a piece o'cake. :lol: Maybe because price wise they weren't that far apart. :) So you see, WIS training isn't so hard after all. :wink:

And, if I may, I would also like to use your disclaimer:

Hey you should get a nice little pocket type of watch and put on that collar ring....would be hard for her to read what time it said, but it would look kind of cool :thumbsup: :cigar:
