Wristwatches - what do you wear?

This morning I had an anaphylactic shock reaction between 3-4am.

I went to hospital for blood tests wearing my Sekonda sterling silver diamond set bracelet watch (thank Goodness not my Graff gold watch), and came home minus the watch..

I’m allergic to all base metals, so all of my watches are sterling silver or gold, but very few watches are made in silver.

I’d like to replace it as I prefer bracelet to strap watches in the summer, but today feel too unwell to do Anything about Anything.

Oh no. This is terrible and infuriating.
I hope you feel better soon.

Thank you so much-I’m trying to rest and not just impulse buy a white gold watch to replace it..I didn’t really sleep last night and have a migraine.
The fact that it wasn’t worth very much doesn’t change the fact that I lost a watch, as I find it so hard to find watches I can even wear without my whole arm swelling up….

Are you able to war titanium? It’s supposed to be hypoallergenic although not many made for women’s watches. Most importantly, don’t stress buy right now. Focus on feeling better and then take the time to find a beautiful replacement. Keep us posted!
