is it customary for the finacee to give the fiance something, like a watch? I never heard of this and people around work are asking me, so now i''m panicking and wondering if i should get him a nice watch for xmas. we were going to have a limit on $ spent on xmas gifts this year, but now i''m feeling guilty bc he got me the nice ring and maybe i should get something nice for him. wondering what others did.. 2 days left of xmas shopping left, so nothing like last minute!

A watch is a typical engagment gift. However, nice cufflinks or a wallet are nice too.

I didn''t get him anything, but he buys himself pretty much whatever he wants so he''s very difficult to shop for (his Christmas gifts are ridiculous!). He didn''t want or expect anything, either, and I think that is what matters most.

This topic has been discussed quite a bit.
Check out these posts for ideas & more on what others did. They certainly run the gamut!

BTW- I didn''t buy DH anything, but took him out for a fantastic dinner to celebrate.

I just bought him the watch he wanted for engagement + Christmas gifts.

It was really expensive for me but before paying for my e-ring he bought the watch and he returned it because the one the store gave him didn''t work.. and with that money he made the last payment for my e-ring..

He kept asking me for " permission " to buy the watch again but I always ended up saying no because we needed money for this or that.. so now I''m going to give my baby what he wants, he deserves it.

I gave him a Channel Islands Black Beauty Surfboard. To see his eyes light up when he looked at it in the store was one of the best moments of my life. I didn''t do it because it is a custom - I just did it because I felt like he had given a ring to me, and I just wanted to give to him too. I figured he spent a lot of $ on me, so he deserved a little treat himself!
