Or is it too dressy? Opinions please. I don't own any nice watches, just a big gold Michael Kors that I like but am sick to death of!

If this was me, no. Diamonds on watches are totally impractical for my life. It's beautiful, but not practical, unless you don't do a lot during the day that it would get banged on. Do they make it without stones on the bezel?
 
Hmm... I think this watch could be worn either way.

Questions to ask yourself:

What is your lifestyle like? If you do a lot of work with hands or running around everyday, then the watch would gather a lot of scratches and I personally think it would be unfortunate.

Are you the type of person to worry a lot? If a diamond falls out or even something minor like a scratch tends to bother you, then I'd save it for more special occasions.

What kind of social circle are you in? If your family/friends/colleagues don't wear very expensive items, I'd be cautious...
 
Thank you for the input.


This is it without the diamonds on the bezel, which I feel would be more practical for every day, but I don't love it as much. I like how the diamonds break up the gold on the first one.

both watches are very pretty. For me it's more about is it practical for my job (diamonds aren't). But if I worked in a more "corporate" environment I would go for it.
 
I don't think it's too much for everyday especially if you dont wear a ton of jewelry and keep it simple. I like how the diamonds are set in 3s and not straight through and that it's two tone. If you're old enough and work in a corporate environment I think you'd be able to wear it everyday.
 
I have the one without the diamonds on the bezel; the diamonds on mine are just on the hour markers. I wear mine everyday. I haven't seen the one that you like, but my only hesitation would be if it looked super sparkly in real life. Being super-sparkly would make it seem more dressy to me. I have a Bulova with diamonds on the bezel which I wore everyday, but the diamonds were pretty discreet.

It's really more what you'll be comfortable with. Will the diamonds make you feel uncomfortable wearing every day? Somehow, it seems that if you're even asking, then you might not be comfortable with it. If you get the chance, try both versions on side by side and just see which one feels more "you"!
