What will you do if ..

[honestdeal]

Yes, she is wearing 1 of my watch. And yes, ladies tend to be more careless with watches. I can not say so for her handbags !

90c? What a rip off!
I only pay 70c for mine.

Maybe papercup one leh

do you let your wife drive your car when you are not around???

My gf only drives auto, mine manual.

See what I mean guys?! Watches, can let your other half wack. Cars cannot!

Sorry,hee hee! For me cars and watches a strict no-no for my wife as they are my toys, but dun be mistaken, I am not the stingy sort. She can spend my money anyway she deem fit.

hahaha..for me i buy for OC then she wear..she is the best OC a watch nut can have...she treat my watches more carefully than me myself...hehehehe....

[psee]

I recently bought a discontinued 39mm GO Senator Navigator Panorama Date in very mint (prob'ly NOS) condition (and a very nice serial number) and it was 'given' to my Missus as she likes it. She is not really a 'watch person' but had worn it very carefully on a few occassions so far

i agree with that you can always ask what watch our love one likes to wear.

anyway, to date i bought for my wife

hublot ladies watch - quartz model
ladies DJ
sinn ladies MOP

in fact, ladies DJ is usually worn on formal occasions only. she hardly wears the hublot after the ladies DJ appeared. as for the sinn, she wore it initially. now also cold storage.

she has taken over my breitling watch, which is prior to the colt series if it is closely resembled. she wears it to work. now also cold storage.

these days, she hardly wear watches. all cold storage.

i have been banned from buying bags. the last coach limited edition which i bought is still in storage.

i have also been banned from buying diamonds.

so i think i quite lucky. now i just push the cash into her savings.

My opinion is to ask if the person does want it or not... assuming the person is one that will not enjoy having such a watch.. then u are making life difficult for them, as they have to feel obligated to wear it, take special care while wearing it.. and if anything happen to it.... they might feel so bad about it... so before u buy.. ask if he/she really wants it.. if she doesn't want a watch.. save the money to buy something else for them... so that at least she enjoys the item....(if it for ladies... diamond, LVs and so on would suit the bill nicely)

as usual, first scratch/dent/ding/damage/etc is the most painful. after that immune.

Hi,

For discussion sake, will you buy a luxury watch for a love one when you know for sure that once the watch is worn on his/her wrist, it will be scratched, knocked, dropped, etc, in less than a week or two's time?

[feilong108]

for me personally, i am lucky becoz my OC take good care of watches...hehehehe....so she is welcome to take any watches of mine to wear...

[Watcha]

See what I mean guys?! Watches, can let your other half wack. Cars cannot!

haha me car also can. only condition: don't wack into people's car.
if not insurance jialat.

[SamGMT]

Cedric, you hit the nail. She just doesn't care about watches. And she is starting to feel obligated. Prob is, I am the one who handled all our watches and any new 'injury' on her watches, I sure ask her. What watch she wants to wear, I prepare, and when at home, I clean and keep it.

do you let your wife drive your car when you are not around???

116520, you sure know how to 'stir'. Seriously, I try not to (let her drive)..

[Chunster69]

I guess if she will "damage" it quickly for sure due to her life style or job requirement etc, then I will probably not...or I will buy a cheap daily beater (G shock! hehe) on top of the luxury watch (for special occasions?), but if it is her nature that she tends to be careless about it...I guess I will as long as she wants it...cos I think realising the love and $$$ involved in the watch, she will probably be more careful...

But truth is, I think I am the careless type too...no matter how I try to protect my watch, the 1st scratch etc will come within 2 weeks.....sigh....but it did not stop me from getting my rollies...hehe...
