    My daily production was already in a gray area, but since joining OF I'm at an all time low. Thanks. Rant complete

    ..... and your wallet.

    I've always said that the masthead on any watch forum should read "Abandon all hope, ye who enter here".

    I came across OF a couple years back. I knew that admission would spiral into new obsessions, so I abstained.

    Two years later, I now read OF on a daily basis, own a speedy, and am searching for more. Oh - and wishing I'd started when I had the chance, because the speedy prices would've been softer...

    Better late than never, I suppose...?

    Lose one obsession, gain another...

    I've even noticed a loss of weight since joining! If someone else were preparing meals, it might not be an issue, but since I make my own meals, I spend MUCH less time in the kitchen, whether cooking or eating, since joining...

    I guess it depends on which watch you wear. This 100+ grams add on. Then again the wallet get's lighter so...

    and there is a definite effect on sex life too. ::facepalm1::

    All I can say is all my watches seem to stop at 15 seconds when they should be measuring up to 45 minutes. I keep taking them for service and I keep getting them returned with a packet of Viagra.

    Weird.
