LOL! If you can't hunt this down, no one can!Yeah it would. I don't see that happening though.
Well, since I am thinking about getting the leather strap and not sure if that will work for me I decided to start with a vintage tri-colored Cartier. I have always loved this watch and it looks to be in excellent condition and for 2,000 not a bad price. I figure I can sell it when I find the one that I want after making sure I can wear the leather strap. I actually would love a rose and white gold watch, but that doesn't seem to exist. I just bought the 30 mm Men's Tri-Color Gold Cartier Vendome watch.

Great minds! This watch is over 35 years old. It broke and I never had it fixed. Not as nice as yours and smaller but same idea. I can't even read the time WITH cheaters..................
I like the one you bought...classic!

Oh, it is pretty. You should get it fixed and sell it if it wouldn't cost too much to fix since you can't tell time with it anymore. Would your jeweler take it and give you credit toward something else? It is a timeless, classic piece that I am sure someone else would just love to own.
I checked out fixing it years ago...total refurb, too expensive at the time and probably a lot more now. Honestly, I had forgot about it till I saw yours.
I know how that goes. I would take it to your jeweler and see if he would give you a trade in allowance. He could fix it much cheaper than it would cost you to have it done and you could have a credit toward something that you would love and wear.
Speaking of love and wear. I got my Valentines Day present early and already have pictures. Rose gold diamond bracelet. I am strictly wanting rose gold these days as I have enough yg and wg. The only exception that would be made is if it is antique or vintage piece that I love.

Oh, I know that.
We have to be able to laugh at ourselves. Actually the shorts are a step up from my Target sleep shorts that I wander around in.
So beautiful! RG is gorgeous, so I understand why you want it. Plus the more I see pave, the more I love it. Your DH is a great one for giving the perfect gift.
Thank you, F&F. I think it will be a great test to see how I feel about the leather band. I haven't worn a watch with one since I was a kid. The watch I really want is just too pricey in all RG.
Aww thank you. I agree I am very blessed. I love pave diamonds when they are nice. They seem to sparkle a bit more.
I haven't worn a leather band in many years. I hope you find the RG combo you want.
I know what you're saying about pave. It's glittery. I can't believe I didn't like it when I was younger.
I know I've said this before, but I really do enjoy hearing your stories & seeing your gifts. It makes me happy. You two seem to have a great friendship & a deep love. It's rare.
