What she doesn't know won't hurt her so if she doesn't ask, I disclose nothing. "Ask me no questions and I tell you no lies"subtlelaugh.gif

My watches are well distributed in an office safe and also in bank safe custody boxes in vaults that can withstand over 1,000 degrees for 5 hours....so I guess they are pretty safe.

Besides, we made an airtight deal and shook on it: Watches, SI !!! Pretty ladies, NO!!! subtlelaugh.gif

Well, no partner, but since I'm back at home until I finish this internship I do have to hide the new purchases from the mother.

She doesn't quite understand me spending MY own money on things that I enjoy hah.

I've never hidden any, but often my wife won't notice a new watch for weeks or even months after I start wearing it. As long as I don't go hog-wild she never complains.

It goes beyond watches- she has complimented me on clothes that I've had for years, and recently it took two days for her to notice that I'd shaved my beard.

I may have to consider the possibility that she doesn't like me much...

No maybe she has done worse and is hiding loads of stuff from you and hoping that if she ignores your stuff you will not bother about hers.....ooooh the plot thickens

I only tell the wife when the watch is incomming, don't mention any that may be on long term pre-order.

Just told her about the Sea Viper, got the usual response "not another watch". It's hard for me to justify another watch as she says they "all look the same to me". I just put up with a little strained silence for a while, but she soon gets over it.woohoo.gif

My wife knows about every watch I own. She writes the checks for the credit card bills every month! She is after me to inventory and photograph each of my watches, though, and I have thought about getting a gun safe, with shelves, to store them in.Bouncy.gif

None hidden here... However I sometimes forget to mention that I bought something until it comes in crap.gif

You know the old saying... "It's easier to ask for forgiveness than it is to ask permission..."

I just tell tell her, the eyes roll and life goes on.  Worst of all she is my accountant so eventually she sees the price too....

I think she's happy my obsession is something she knows about and not something hidden.
