Watches. It's a sickness. Thank God I'm poor so I'm actually unable to walk into a shop and buy the ones I want - if I had money I'd waste all of it on high-end watches.

But I still have several cheap ones! I have a wide selection, from elegant ones to tacky ones. Right now I really want to get one of those Casio calculator watches that were out in the '80's. I saw one on this hip woman who was in her mid-thirties and I thought it was was soooo coool!

When I was a kid the popular gift for children was little plastic digital watches. By the age of 11 I'd been given about 12 or 13 in my life and I was already hooked.

Don't have much interest in rings except my wedding set, and end up wearing the same necklace/earrings all the time.

I share the sickness! I have around 27-30, and have bought and sold and traded up at least that many over the last 7 years. I just love watches! Mainly Rolex, but have all price points from about $100 USD on up.

I have very little 'fine' jewelry; my wedding set, one other diamond ring, and some white and yellow gold hoops. The rest is 'fashion' fun stuff, or fake bling.

Chessmont, that is a serious collection! I could possibly get there with earrings, so I'm not going to judge...:p

I go straight for the rings! I like to be able to SEE my jewelry at all times, and rings fit the bill. :smile1: A close second is necklaces.

I have ONE watch and that's enough for me. I am not a big earrings person. Most days, I don't even wear them. I'm not sure why. I'll put them in if I'm getting dressed up for an event, but it's not an everyday thing for me. I also rarely wear bracelets. They get in my way and I don't like the feeling of them constantly moving up and down my wrists...irritating! I think I wear bracelets only about 5 times a year! lol.

Watches! I can't live without them...I currently wear an Omega, love my Roadster and I am eyeing a Michael Kors...I've had many over the years and I can't get enough of them!

Of course, earrings, I used to like big ones but now I am going for studs for some reason...

Watches!!!!!!
Just recently started with necklaces and ordered the new Tiffany cabochon ring in jade.
Love bracelets 2nd to watches but have way too many.
Never ever buy or wear earrings even though my ears are pierced.

I dont like rings/bracelets too much coz I wash my hands and put on lotion many times a day, so I mainly just wear necklace or earrings if I have time to put them on in the morning. I also like watches.

I used to only go for pendants, but back in high school I wanted a class ring and my parents told me I could t get on because I never wore rings, so ever since then I've kind of become
obsessed with buying rings, lol. I do wear them all the time now

I am, and always have been, a jewellery a holic :P. But currently it is bracelets and earrings. I'm a sucker for old celtic jewellery or tribal jewellery, always silver, and usually delicate and dainty.
