That sounds about right LOL. Too bad she is not as generous with raises

LOL!

I've got a Bulova watch too. I thought it was about $100 but hubby about fell off his chair when I asked and he said it was about $300. We got each other really nice watches for our engagement presents (he got a Blue Angels watch since he was in the Air Force, and it does everything but wipe you!). I don't remember paying that much for it, so it may have been on sale or something....

Just looked on the site and they don't have mine at all anymore. It looks kinda like this one, but the diamond chips are only around the face of the watch, not down the sides, and it has a black face. This one sells for $325, so it has to be much cheaper than that, and I swear it was on clearance.



I've had it for over 3 years and this is the first time I've ever had a watch last that long. I've VERY hard on watches!

Wow that is a beautiful watch!

I agree! That is beautiful! I'd be afraid to wear it!

I say Timex! All of my watches that I have ever owned (with the exception of one from my grandma) have been Timex, and they all still work, except the one I got for like my 8th birthday or somewhere around there, it got washed in the washer too many times!! lol It still mostly works, though. It was a glow-in-the-dark one which was great! I still have it, and hope to get it fixed sometime. I have one that I got 2 years ago, it's black leather strap, and silver around the face, really nice. I thought I had lost that one, so I got another one, it's not a Timex, but it's a bit dressier, it's silver linked. I'm not very good at describing, so I'll try to get some pics of it, and post it.....if I can figure out how

I normally buy my watches at JCpenny or boscovs. the last one I bought had a bracelet brand and I nice watch face. It looks like a grown up watch but if you look close it has pooh on the watch face

Fossils are VERY Good watches. Craig has one and I loooove it. There are some really pretty feminine fossils out there too.


Craig got me and Anne Klein watch with a single diamon to mark the '12' spot for Christmas two years ago. I love that watch. Currently the battery is dead and I need to replace it. It has interchangable faces. One face is Onyx, one face is Jade, one face is mother of pearl, and one face is a bunch of diamonds. Its absolutely beautiful, and I love that I change the faces so it feels and looks like a totally different watch, and I can change it to match my style of clothing. Casual or formal!

I the watch selection at Nordstrom's. Here's a link to their watch collection under $100: And many are under $70! They have really nice watches from Anne Klein and DKNY.

I swear by my swiss army watch - it is actually very beautiful - it isn't chunky or anything!

Bulova is an excellent watch. I've had one my grand mother gave me when I was a teenager, so I've had it for about 32 years! It still keeps perfect time. They're worth the money!

Here is a link to Swiss Army watches. I have had mine for 8 years and have never had a problem with it. watches

You can alos look at other watches on this site.

Thank you everyone for the great suggestions!

Today I went to Walmart to get supplies and thought I'd look around to see if they got any new watches in. I found a whole bunch of really cheap ones for $14.95 and I found one almost identical to the one I posted about earlier! So, I thought what the heck! Even if it only runs for a few months, I got my moneys worth out of it! I really like it! It's got more gold on the band than the fossil one and it doesn't have the gold rim around the face.
I do have to get 2 links taken out. It was in a package where I couldn't try it on and it had a sticker saying extra long band (since I have big wrists, I thought it would be best)..well, it's huge. But other than that, I'm satisfied for now. I do want to get a GOOD watch in the future...maybe when I start making more money at my new job!

Never use a watch, just the cell phone with the time set on it. I tend to smash watches cuz I'm just a little clumsy.

I thought I was the only clutz around here? I haven't ever managed to smash a watch though!

For your next watch Shell, I would recommend a Guess watch. I have this really nice silver one that has a blueish/purplish face and the numbers are marked in silver. It has oval shaped links and its very stylish and somewhat dressy. Hubby got it for me 2 years ago for my bday and I love it! I've worn it everyday since then and I haven't had to replace the battery or anything. I think it was around $70 or something. I actually got it at a place in the mall called Watch World or something like that...I can't remember.

Thanks! I'll keep that in mind!
