Hi everyone!

I haven't been in the jewellery forum before so lovely to meet you all

I wanted to ask you ladies your opinion about this Jacob watch I've just bought (impatiently waiting for Fedex to deliver it!

), I LOVE big watches and this is a 40mm (my Chanel J12 in my avatar is 38mm) so 40mm doesn't really feel much different to me.

I wouldn't wear the black strap as in this pic, I'll probably rotate the red and the yellow strap instead.

Do you think the watch looks too manly? I kind of think it does in the pic with the black strap but don't think it would with the red or yellow. I love the diamond bezel and love the size of the watch.

What do you guys think?

Thanks so much!! xxx

Thank you so much everyone!

I love the sound of a Turquoise strap, that would be such a gorgeous colour for summer.
No Fedex delivery today

, I really should learn to be alittle more patient!

But I sure will post modelling pics when it arrives!

What a stunning watch! Your J12 38mm (which I LOVE, BTW) looks so good on your wrist and I think your new Jacob watch will look just as nice and not as manly at all. :-)

ame · Mar 25th, 2009, 11:29 AM

I don't find that very manly at all!

howardu09 · Mar 25th, 2009, 11:42 AM

I like large watches on both guys and girls..I think it would look great with a bright band
