Hootie, I'll trade you, your rock for my Rolex.


By Rolex, I mean a watch I bought off the street for $10 from some shady looking guy. ;)

My boss received a real Rolex for her birthday which might 'accidentally' slip off her wrist and into my pocket.

At this point, everyone knows to buy me white gold/silver/platinum. I think yellow gold looks too much like my own skin tone, and looks slightly cheap on me. My watch is two-tone, and I like it. But as soon as it's time for a trade-in, I'll go with another material.

Hootie, I want a Rolex. I'm attracted to the reputation and quality, plus I think it's time for a big girl watch. What kind do you all sell?

I have mine all picked out. The best part - I get 54% off! WOO HOO! And it's all Stainless Steel - so it's sticking with my "silver" tradition. However, it does have diamonds on the face.

hee hee

Hootie, you're going to have a bling bling Rolex. I want to see a picture. :)

My sister worked for a luxury watch company. She paid 1/3 retail for her watches. Nice perk for her!

My parents got me into gold jewelry as a child. So, majority of my pieces are gold. My watch is two-toned though. I do like the look of silver. My main problem is that I have 7 earrings, all which are gold (little hoops, nothing too big). When I do wear silver, I take them all out and replace the first set with silver hoops. My boyfriend keeps telling me I better build up my collection of silver, white gold, or plantinum cause that's what my ring will be when he gets it! Plantinum, that is. Damn, I guess I can settle for that! ;)

That is great, at least your boy has taste.

Platinum.

It's one of the few perks of getting old;)

I don't have a preference. I wear both gold or silver depending upon the outfit or occasion. I do prefer to have a white gold or platinum engagement ring.

Is white gold more expensive than yellow gold . . and why is it white? Do they dye it or something?

I can't find anything on the cost difference, but white gold is explained here:

and I'd choose Platinum.

CatStarESP4 02-27-2004 11:26 PM

I like them both, but I look better with silver.

silver

APhiRattlerGal 02-28-2004 09:29 AM

silver all the way. I dont like the way gold looks on me

PrincessPhiSig 02-29-2004 12:49 AM

I absolutely adore yellow gold. My parents gave me my first yellow gold diamond ring when I was tiny. It's like a size 1.5. I was hooked from then on. I do prefer lighter shades of yellow gold though. :) White gold/silver/platinum doesn't look right on me. Just makes me look more pasty than usual. :)
