Great 3 Stooges Running Gag: "Three Wristwatches"

I love the 3 watches,its classic. Who thought this stuff up?

You can't tell the time with 3 wristwatches

I thought Shemp's version was the best one. 🤣 🤣

Moe: "What does your watch say?"
Shemp: "It don't say nuthin. Ya gotta look at it."
BOP!

Shemp's was the best. The little click of the pocket watch cover aces the gag.

Sounds like an old vaudeville joke😂

I’m glad that Curly and Shemp explain how they figure out the time from their watches. Larry’s version was the first time I ever saw this joke and I had been wondering how it works. I’m actually surprised that Curly would be able to figure out since he was helping a boy once figure out how to solve 6 + 6 and he was having trouble with it himself.

Need to do a thing for their "Order 2 pieces of burnt toast and a rotten egg" gag. XD

I love to see "Every Man For Himself"!

I'll give ya the time, old timer. (gets out the three wristwatches on his arm)

i think curly did it best

Moe: What's the idea of the three watches?!?
Curly: That's the way I tell the time
Moe: Whaddya mean that's how ya tell the time?
Curly (pointing to each watch): This one runs 10 Minutes slow every 2 hours. This one runs 20 Minutes fast every 4 hours. The one in the middle is broken it stopped at 2 o'clock
Moe: So howddya tell the time?
Curly: I take the 10 Minutes, subtract by 20 Minutes here, & then divide by 2 in the middle.
Moe: Okay, what time is it now?
Curly (pulling out a pocket watch): Uh, 10 Minutes to 4.

Hey, what’s the idea of the three watches?

Even though the same gag is repeated many times, it’s still funny as hell!!!!!

If I only have 3 wristwatches I could tell time.

The one person who didn't like this must have had a digital watch to tell time

Hahahah! You should do Curly’s “I’m a victim of circumstance!”

I’d liked to see someone at my job do this

Moe is crazy. Curly is nutZ!

Hey, what's the idea of the three watches?

Do one where they harmonize

at the end GET AWAY FROM HERE LOL

Lol, Moe slapping Larry for no reason of course.

Ted Healy did this routine in "Mad Holiday" (1936) with his new stooge, Dick Hakins. Pretty much bland delivery by Hakins since the Stooges always did it with great timings.

Curly's had better delivery

Curly wore three watches o n his wrist in Movie Maniacs, but that was as far as it went.

It was trimmed by the time Shemp came along. His explanation isn't as involved as Curly's or Larry's takes.

Can you do the give me a hand gag

I grew up watching The Stooges and I'm really digging the content. Keep up the good work!
