Watch Collecting Blues

Well apparently it doesn't just happen with music .....

Bought a new watch yesterday. The moment I walked away from the purchase, the dred feeling overcame me that I already had that same watch at home. It only grew stronger as I went about my afternoon rounds. Upon arriving home a few hours later, I practically ran inside to check things out. I felt an initial slight sense of relief upon comparison as the faces of the two watches appeared to be different dark shades. Then suddenly: "OH SHIT!!!" It was just the light that each piece was being viewed inthat was causing the slightly different look. It's the same watch!!

Why couldn't I have a moment of hesitation and thought before making the purchase? Now I have to return to the store with my tail between my legs and attempt not to look too out of touch as I ask for my money back.
