Nice one Tori 

 

 

 

 

I understand that. Don't go for all the posing malarkey myself! Although I do have a very pretty watch which was a Christmas pressie (only Next though) suits me just fine!

Thanls VD- I love a bargain. Could probably sell it on EBay for double that.   Buy low and sell high.

A Pressie didn't cost you so well done as yours was cheaper than mine.

That said...I bought a leather strap one there last year for work at around the same price.......It doesn't get used now. I no longer wear it. The strap has split  

Function v Beauty...each to their own!

(Never tried to impress anyone in my life, but I like beautiful things, for meeeee occasionally!)

Exactly Supes! What works for one may not always work for the other  

Bet the watch is still going though. £4.99 for a year of telling the time seems a good deal to me- buy another one.

But a watch is to tell the time.

Some folk like 'fake' flowers nuts, me I like the smell and the feel of real ones! Sod it that they only last a week

i can tell the time on my phone....I like a nice piece of jewellery, I'm a girl!

 

 

I wear the same one all the time Supes, a Rotary one my daughter bought me for a birthday 8 years ago.... I love it, and it's not lost a second since I got it. I think quality is worth going for if possible and plus they look much nicer 

I never wear a watch ,people always ask you the time .

I wish my daughter would buy me a Rotary watch.

  I'd be lost without a watch Erin! And anyway....mobiles don't always hold the time properly 

See, now there again, I like Accurist, but some peeps like Rolex's. What's in a name? 

 

 

The worry she's put me through at times, I'm not sure it's worth it Sooz 

Mum insisted that I have m'Dad's watch. Before that I haven't worn a watch in thirty years.

 

I don't think it's so much the name Pam, as the quality that goes into a watch when you pay a little extra 

 I hate mobiles to I only use one when I have to  

I feel naked without a watch. If I happem to go out without it on I am amazed at the amount of time I spend looking at my bare wrist. I find it surprising at how often I need to know what time it is. It's only when I'm not wearing it that I'm aware of how often I need to know the time.

 

Saying that .........................any old watch will do.

Watches are for telling the time and mobile phones are for phoning- That's what gets my gripe- we are turning into a society of Zombies, apps on the phone, ears stuffed with ipods, Argggggggggggggggggggggg where is all this modern stuff going?

It does help if you can get your money back on a watch though.

 

Astute peeps don't buy second hand Rolexes just for posing.

My old one busted 3 days ago and i found myself lifting my left sleeve to tell the time constantly during the day. So at a fiver- i have save myself from compulsive behaviour in an instant.

I think we have to face facts - whether we like it or not - peoples lives seem to be wrapped up in their phones! When they invent a phone that can hoover, clear 8up and do the ironing I may become a convert. Until then I can take em or leave em. Since my mobile went through the washer in November there has only been one time that I've actually really missed it! ................

Is there money to be made on them?

A new one was one grand odd early nineties.

 

Second hand now around three.

 

Talking Subs though.

Wishes it was a pocket watch....sighs

My last 2 mobiles were rendered useless with Vodaphone ( each with at least $8.00 on tariff) Got cut off and end of in there terms. Just coz i hadn't used them in a certain amount of time. Never read this in the terms and conditions. I read that if you don.t use use your phone for a time they give your number to someone else???  Where has my money gone?

So its- Gold, Platinum and Diamonds for investment now.

I have my Grandad's pocket watch and chain soops!

You know, I have no recollection of what make mine is, (I'll look in a min!) but I do know that it's a mix of 'real' white and yellow gold and it looks nice, when I look at it, to tell the time! Oh and and I know I treated myself to it because I wanted a 'girlie/old fashioned watch'

I have my mum's gold one that I bought her for her birthday many years ago...which I wear occasionally

Mr woo got an antique gold double albert pocket watch for his 21st birthday. very nice it is too.

Noooo, they're little computers, with your camera and music all in one little device

I love my Cartier .... name and shame... lol lol 

Now we're talking

Actually I have three pocket watches, but my Grandad's was a functional leather encased job that you don't see very often nowadays. They are all salted away with the medals and such.

See, I'd never do it for that reason, 'cos if I were to buy or inherit a thing of beauty, I would just keep it!
