    Fantastic, this could become a business! (although probably not a highly profitable one in this day and age).

    I think she really enjoyed the game... Improvement is required of course (prototype) but she has a very good idea ( I think) for the next one... Hope you will enjoy this 'optimzation'
    I will keep you updated ;)

    Best thing to do is have her make some that are bigger then your collection. That way you can say "Gee Honey, I though you made it bigger because you wanted me to buy some more watches"

    That's pretty awesome. My girlfriend bought be a watch box that could hold around 9 watches, which was perfect for the time.

    a year later I'm already in need of a bigger box.

    And I keep her happy by getting her involved in the watch hobby, she has a few watches she wears now.

    It's all fun and games until your watch budget is cut in half because Mama wants in on the action too!

    My wife recently bought me a watch holder for 6, she was very concerned as I only have 5 watches. As a solution, she took my daughter's 2 cheap children's watches and put them inside so it would be full even when I'm wearing one.

    Little does she know how much worse it could be.

    Ha ha...

    Oh dear. :unsure: The first commandment of this hobby: "Watches are watches and wives are wives, and never the twain shall meet." ;)
