So I bought a watch.....

[geoffgulley]

.....and promptly got in trouble with the misses. It all started when we went to see Transporter 2 and Jason Statham wears this badass Panerai in the film. So I started to check them out and eventually ended up buying a "pre-owned" one from a local jeweler. I sorta/kinda hid that fact from the future wife but she saw it as I came back from coaching (not playing) hockey last night a wee bit intoxicated. Now she wants one.... Probably should have had Sean do my taxes cause I need to come up with some extra cash now.... So should I

a. keep mine and ignore her.
b. sell mine and ignore her
c. buy her one.

The watch in question:

Re: So I bought a watch.....

Buy her one as a wedding/engagement present. Time heals all wounds and the longer that you go with blowing her off (so to speak) or just telling her that you'll get her one then the less you'll hear about it. Unless of course you're made of money, then just go get it for her.

put it on your south pole and tell her she needs to take it off with her mouth. that is how i present all my gifts to my wife. you know being married, the sex stock drops and never seems to go back up.

Buy her a fake watch, say tag or rolex, you'll save money and she'll have a watch. Everyone wins.

hey man,

i am just blunt. i would not lie to you.

buy her the damn watch and both of you never stop loving each other. or you could always tell her when she is "good" she can wear yours. that always does not work, but it can.
