    A very promising development in medicine, but I'm not sure if I should try it or not. Some addictions are to nice to quit....

    Don't let that get around - some of our wives may start putting it in our orange juice.

    That's a nice one. But does any of us want to cure our Virus? NO WE DON'T. It is one of these seldom viruses which brings people together and creates friendship.

    The virus has mutated since 2001 so a new medication is required since Wistatrin has shown no clinical efficacy ;-)

    Keep collecting !

    If something appears too good to be true, it is too good to be true. It sounds like false advertising. CAVEAT EMPTOR.
    In any event, who wants to be cured? :-)

    My wife had me on that stuff for 6 months.

    During that time, my collection grew by 2 pocketwatches and my virus mutated - leaving me with an acute affliction which required a contemporary IWC wristwatch strapped to both wrists - to allieviate the pain!

    Worst of all it effected my libido!

    So fellows stay far away from that stuff.

    Fortunately, these days my wife has found the perfect remedy - she insists i reguarly go into town and pickup a box. You know, it comes in the form of those little round blue things. Simply taking one out the bedside table draw in the morning - gives hours of pleasure as I stare down all day at the 42mm blue dial!

    I think I need to get my Mrs. to give Alan's wife a call to tell her about the perfect virus fix - puts it in remission for st least 6 months. It's called Blue IW5032.

    I like my virus.

    The newer version of this medication was recently released. It's now a BLUE pill. If after 4 hrs the craving for a watch continues, call your AD/ Boutique immediately for assistance.

    Watch hoarding ... a "hard" habit to break !

    Mark,
    I really like your temporary virus fix!! That said I tried it on my wife, but she isn't buying it, perhaps your wife could call mine after the 1st of the year? Afterall, I'm done for this year. LOL.

    Regards,
    Kevin

    Oh Kevin, famous last words there!

    Be warned - the virus normally flares up badly around the 23rd December - requiring often, a Christmas Day fix!

    Thank you Norbert. I assume I can acquire some for a friendly price directly from you? I will contact you shortly to discuss therapy.

    Yesterday I took my youngest son to a jeweler to see if a certain watch fitted his wrist (no IWC though). I am probably very contagious right now. Should I wear silk gloves when I strap on my watches?

    Kind regards,

    Clemens

    The first step towards recovery is admitting that you have a problem - and I DO NOT HAVE A PROBLEM!!!!!!!!

    :)

    Cheers,

    Ben
