...I LOVE IT!!! It's beautiful, it's fabulous, it's absolutely perfect. It looked OK on the website, but it looks amazing in person, and on me. When I saw it I wasn't that impressed, but I was desparate and beggers can't be choosers, so I went ahead and ordered it. Now that I have it, it's absolutely out of this world. The brown strap isn't as bright as it looked on line, and the gold around the face is much shinier than it looked on the website. It was running from the moment I took it out of the box and it was even set to the right time. No more looking at my wrist and thinking I lost my watch. LOL So to all those who have been following the frustrated story of my dead watch, I now have a new one. :)

It sounds amazing! You'll have to post a picture of it on here. We'd all love to see it! I broke the band on my favorite Winnie The Pooh watch. It has Winnie the Pooh and the whole gang...especially Eyeore who is my favorite cartoon character ever! The girls got me the watch for Christmas three years ago. I keep forgetting to take it with me when I head to town.

Congrads! I am glad you love your new watch.It sounds like you are already used to it. For me, it takes about a week to get used to a watch.

Great:) I'm so happy for you LOL So now you're all set and know what time it is again heheheh I actually liked it when I saw the picture, it is the kind of watch that I would be able to see what time it is without having to put my glasses on, and for me that's a big plus now.

Glad to hear it. I get frustrated with watches as well. I need a big face and I want all numbers showing as natural digits. I have a problem with straps though. Those darn "leather" straps always wear away and break. I bought a new stretchy silver strap for my current watch but it had to be a men's so I have a big clunky watch on my wrist. I hate it. My mom got a new watch recently and I told her I loved it and that it was perfect. She promised to get me one and she has assured me she has it for me. I can't live without my watch on my wrist either.

Sorry to hear that. Thats one of the reasons why I don't like online shopping. I also have experienced something like that with the clothes I ordered online. It looks fabulous on the pictures online but when I received it, its not that appealing to me. I was a bit disappointed with my purchase. Online shopping usually has a no return, no exchange policy especially if you bought it from Ebay so I prefer to go shopping in a mall or bazaar.

Well that is wonderful!!! Isn't it funny how we get so used to wearing a watch you just have to have one!!! I really miss my watch the few tines I forget to put it back on after a bath if I happen to leave the house withiut it. I never take my watch off except when I bath, do dishes and replace the battery, but the very odd time I have been in a hurry to go some place and bathed forgetting to put my watch back on. Good luck and Take Care my friend.

Wow, looks like you really got a watch that you like. So I suggess you treasure it well, and it must bring you best regards always. For me, I wanna say that I didn't have a watch since I got a cellphone, so that one replaced my watch, and I guess I acturely have no needs to buy a watch.

Isn't it wonderful when things turn out even better than expected. I know you were feeling lost without your old standby watch. It was a friend who was always close at hand.
