So what do you do with your money?
Me, I consume like any good American. I buy CDs (I have about 600). I buy movies (I have about 150). I buy video games though now my company buys most of those so I don’t have to.
I also collect a few things. I like to collect children’s books. I have maybe 50 or so. I collect small toys. I collect stuffed animals but not as much as I used to. (See Seven) I also like to collect watches. I have about 45 and I look at it as about the only type of jewelry that men can have. Sure we can have earrings but about the only acceptable kind is just a silver ring. We can also have rings but most men wear only a wedding band and or class ring. I don’t have a class ring and I’m not married.
Here are some of my watches. Most of them are Swatches because Swatch makes such interesting watches but if I see a interesting watch and it’s not too expensive I’ll buy it.
This one my Mom and Grandma got for me for my last birthday. It’s called ‘Weightless’ and the guy in the center spins around.
This one is for kids and it barely fits.
This one was a gift from my friends Craig and Maki for Christmas in 95. You can only get it at Tokyo Disneyland.
This is a Keroppi watch from Sanrio. Unfortunately the clasp recently broke. I hope I can find another because this is one of my favorites.
This is one of Swatch’s musical alarm watches. They are pretty cool because they have a little stepper motor that moves the hands so that when you press the button the hands move to show you if the alarm is on or off. Wait a moment and the hands will move to show you what time the alarm is set for. Wait another moment and that hand swing back to the current time but they move one whole turn before doing so.
This is another swatch musical alarm watch. It wish the alarm itself was more interesting.
This is the swatch Sea Monster watch. It’s really ugly! That’s why it’s sooo Cool! When I first saw it in the swatch catalog I knew I had to have it. My friends think I’m crazy 
I’m not sure what the name of this watch is but it reminds me of artwork from the Ren and Stimpy show which I used to love.
Here is my newest Keroppi watch.
Those are just some of my watches. What do you collect?
You’ve got a very interesting web-site/blog. I have been reading your stuffs since last weekend Jan10,2003. Anyway, I wonder if you collect Japanese digital watch also?

No, I don’t collect Japanese digital watches. Do you? What are they like? I have a very cool cheap one my old roommate gave me but it’s not old.
Is your sea monster watch for sale? How much u willing to let gofor?
Sorry but even if I wanted to sell it most of my watches are in storage in America. But, I don’t want to sell it :-p
I have that same watch and love it! The only thing I don’t like is the ticking sound of Swatches. You have a very cool site!
do you have the bathing cap that goes with the sea monster watch? I do and its very cute!
How much are people offering you for the watch? Let me know if you can be bothered.
cheers Lesley
I have some pachinko machines, disco lights (I was going to start a nightclub once), lots of different kinds of liquor (I like making cocktails), cooking stuff (I like cooking exotic stuff sometimes), loads of electonic gadgets -too many to list- books about video games and manga art, neckties (I have about 60, but my collection is slowly growing), and music (I sometimes DJ, and I have some hardware for that as well).
your collection is really cool! i was wondering if the nickalodeon watch is for sale? if not then is the one that reminds you of ren and stimpy for sale?

Was just wondering if you could give me a quick lesson on how to change the time on the Swatch Musical (I just bought one this summer, and I can’t figure out how to change the time – since we switched to Eastern Standard Time). Thanks.
