Im not too sure which one to get. I like them both which one Do you think looks closer to the J12? or which one looks better? Do you think its a good buy for $225?

Thanks

I think the second one looks more like the J12 but actually prefer the first one. I don't know MK watches at all, but it sounds like a good price for a cute watch.

I also like it.

i like the first one

I like both....but the "diamonds" on the bezel are Swarovskis, which might fall out within a short period of time. It is a 32mm case, which is not as trendy. If you don't mind spending a little extra, the Guess Collection has watches that are actually ceramic. There is also Swiss Legend which offers watches without diamonds, but are 40mm. I have the one with diamonds and get lots of compliments, but they do have one without diamonds for not too much more than the Michael Kors. I don't work for them, or anything, just bought some of their watches. This came from an ebay seller.

I bought an Invicta white ceramic watch, very plain, no sparkles, and I love it (amazon.com).

I love it so much I just bought a pink one--I am not a pink girly girl but loved the thought of a plain pink ceramic watch (shopnbc.com).

Actually, that's a good choice, too! (I have the black one), but it doesn't look so much like the J12..... It's just that which a Michael Kors watch, that is not ceramic, it is acrylic and I hate the idea of anyone paying that for acrylic. Ceramic, at least is a little durable, though pricey.

I almost bought the first MK, I wish I did.... they are so nice! The swarovski bezel really makes a great statement, especially if you wear b/w clothes, it will really stand out.

I have an Invicta on it's way to me too! It's the Diamond Chronograph... 33mm... I'm excited to get it and hope I love it.

Are ceramic watches just trendy - or are they better? I'd be afraid of a white one...wouldn't it get dirty really quickly?

starbucksqueen · Sep 21st, 2008, 02:02 PM

That's the beauty of them.....just wipe it down with a damp cloth. But watch on hard surfaces like a stone floor.

samoXenina · Sep 21st, 2008, 11:28 PM

i have the first one and love it...i have been wearing it everyday since i bought it two months ago.

Lululovebags · Sep 23rd, 2008, 01:12 PM

i like the MK watches... it looks so pretty and the price is right!

ReRe · Sep 27th, 2008, 08:20 PM
