Hi

Whilst searching for some particular watches i did a group shot of about half of my watches...
It took slightly over an hour to lay these out..




Sorry about the lousy pic (i'm useless with a camerarolleyes )

Any more group shots???


Cheers, Johnsmile

That's incredible.

Question, how do you get to the point where you have that many?

I'd love to have such a collection but for some reason my wife always finds other things to spend our money on biggrin

Thanks for providing me with an excellent "well it could be worse, look at this..." picture to show to my OH when she complains about me wanting a new one smile

Choosing a watch to wear for the day must take some time.

And that is not the full collection !?

WIBBLE!!!!!!laughlaugh




(he has the same moustache as me toobiggrin

CRUMBS MeMiSiS- you must have eyes like a hawk eek, i wouldn't have been able to pick that out other than for the fact that i put it therehehe

Custardtart- they just kinda... crept up on me rolleyes

sneijder- I think i have around two thousand at the moment but really can't be ar*ed to count them- i have to find a few particular watches out to take pics of (they're fakes paperbag )the trouble is that i hide them all over the house (in case of break in) and can't remember where the hell i've put them, i really ought to buy a safe....


Anyone that wants to prove their sanity (and buying prowess!) to their 710, please feel free to use the above pic and don't forget to impress on your other half that i'm an addict (well at least nutty as a fruitcake!) and that you can handle it and will never be a watch junkie like me;)
