Wow this is a great thread! There are so many gorgeous watches and I love seeing them all. I thought I would share my two "good" watches. One is a gold Concord that I got for my 20th wedding anniversary. This past Christmas my husband and I gave each other Rolexes. I wear mine every day and have found it to be a great workhorse watch.

Sundial,
Those are just gorgeous!!!!!! I love them!!!!

I wear a Rolex t/t datejust daily, an orange Seiko diver in the water, a "Bunnysutra" for fun, and a Yurman double cable with pink garnets for dress.

I love watches!!!

I am trying to get my hands on a new Rolex Daytona, but the waiting lists are very long.

Here is my fun watch from a brand called Diafuego. Got a good price for it coz it''s owned by my co-worker''s family. It''s a men''s watch but DH would never wear it since it''s pink and also has diamonds. HAHAHA...so it''s all mine.

Diamond quantity: 95 pcs – white VS
Diamond weight: 0.45 cts.

Hello All:

Widget, I absolutely love your antique Bucherer watch. Bucherer is my favorite stop in Switzerland. We go every few years and love it. Bucherer is a very high end jewelry store there.

Like a kid in a candy store!

Thanks for the info, BB! I''d never heard of them before. When I first got the watch I googled them and learned only that they were Swiss retailers. It''s fun to find out they''re high-end...

And DD! That pink diamond watch is GREAT!!!! So much fun!

Thanks, widget.

Here are some more. I love jewellery and watches and shoes and bags and .....lotsa other stuff....

Top row:
1) Cartier Santos (quite old, given to me by an ex in 1993)
2) Tudor boy-size watch (with Rolex casing and bracelet)

Bottom row:
3) An old watch that I bought from a watch dealer circa 1940s (don't remember) in 14K WG set with little diamonds - the bracelet is 18K WG (my jeweller had it fixed onto the watch - the original strap was fabric).
4) 18K WG Rolex that used to belong to my mum - she gave it to me a few years back.

"18K WG Rolex that used to belong to my mum - she gave it to me a few years back"

Yours is the first Rolex that I''ve actually liked. Do you have a bigger pic of it so i can see the detail, pretty please?

My favorite is the Santos....I like my watches (and my diamonds) to have corners!

Here''s a watch I just got for an anniversary present. It''s a Blancpain Flyback Chrono. I really like the style of the watch for it''s classic lines. It''s not trendy like the oversize Panerai watches that are so popular now.

This is a picture of the solid mahogany box it came in and the watch in the box. The box itself is a work of art.

 

[noobie]

Here''s a better picture of the watch. I can''t take credit for the picture, but it was better than any I took!

 

[belle]

wow noob..that is awesome. the watch (and the box!) is a work of art. happy anniversary to you!

 

[Sundial]

Noobie that is one heck of an anniversary gift! What a magnificent watch and the box is just exquisite!!! Congratulations.

I mentioned my bday present earlier in this thread, but here I am trying to post it. For my 29th bday in june i received this michele mini deco watch from Bloomies (per my request from dear bf). It is 108 individually set white diameonds. The total diamond weight of each watch is .6, or so the cert says. I love this watch! It came with a black lizard band, this is the red alligator band, and i also have a white band. I really want the silver mesh band for christmas!

I woke up this morning saying i better try my photo skills before i get my ring! so enjoy!

 

[flutterby]

Okay, so now I have been trying to take pics on my hand. This is harder than I thought...But here is one with the band it came with. Did i mention i love this watch? There also is a Dior watch I want, but for now, i really dont need another watch. (I have several watches, but they are all Nixon or Paul Frank, nothing as fancy as my michele!)
