I realized this morning on my way to work that my car was extrememly dirty and in need of a bath... no problem, I can take care of that this afternoon...

3 minutes later I saw a finger print on the crystal and about had a panic attack. No kidding, I came close to driving off the road while using my shirt to try to wipe it off.

Who does this? Am I the only one OCD enough about her watch to freak out over a smudge while my car sits covered in dust and pollen?!

I think I can recommend a good psychiatrist who
might help you -- he is also a watch fanatic -- and drives
a dirty car!! :D

Relax, you're not the only one and it's not limited to watches. My wife thinks I'm so OCD about my cars that it's beyond psychiatric reach. :geek:

But we're still married :D

If you were using your shirt to clean the windshield I think I would have almost driven off the road also. :cheer:

Not crazy at all! Glad to see there are more of us out there. Usually during the typical 'scratches add character, wait to get them polished until the 5 year service' threads I always chime in with agreement to hide my OCD. In actuality I can't stand even the lightest of finger print showing anywhere without incessantly wiping it off!

I guess I was tired - I thought you were cleaning your windshield with your shirt after noticing it was dirty.
