What time is it?
Ohhhh, I donโt know.. let me check.
On maybe this:

or this perhaps?
Ever since menโs-inspired large watches started to become popular (last fall), I was kind of skeptical. I have small wrists so a lot of them looked like *too much* on me, I use my cell phone to check the time, and Iโve just never really been a watch girl. The only watch I wear on a regular basis is this one: my Polar FT40 heart rate monitor to the gym ๐
Now, the watches are still going strong and none of my rings fit me, Iโm thinking maybe instead of investing in a small wedding band to prove I am indeed married, I think Iโd like a watch ๐ That way Iโll still be able to wear it when my rings fit me again, and all through the winter.
I LOVE the first brown watch because it will match everything, the classic silver because all of my jewelry is platinum or white gold, and the rose gold watch is just unique and elegant. Having a tough time decidingโฆ
Are you a watch girl? Or do you check your cell phone like me?
I have the silver one, except it has arabic numerals instead of roman and I LOVE it. Get compliments all the time and it instantly pulls together any outfit. GET ONE! ๐
youโre really twisting my arm over here ๐
Check my cell too! I have a nice watch but never wear it, they donโt suit me plus I have small wrists so they always look too big on me I think!
I love Michael Kors watches! Have 3 of them! I am a watch addict! I havenโt seen the brown one yetโฆ..shopping!
i think itโs new! i LOVE it
not a huge brown person but loving that watch, the brown metal is just eye catching!
Watches have been growing on me over the last couple yearsโฆmy husband and his fam are really into them (his parents gave me gucci watch as a โwelcome to the familyโ gift) and rocky loves to gift me one vs other jewelryโฆ i love my growing collectionโฆits true, like the other laura said, it really can pull an outfit together! i have small wrists as well but that just makes the watch more eye catching! you have some great ones to choose from,,,
I rarely wear a watch to look at it, but I have a gorgeous white one that I wear as an accessory and then still look at my phone for the time! I think the rose gold one is really pretty but I think it might be too trendy and go out soon! Iโd go for the brown (really fun and still trendy) or the silver (timeless)! Happy shopping!
I JUST bought a gold Michael Kors watchโฆthis one, to be exact:
http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/michael-kors-jet-set-sport-watch/3038023
I LOVE it, and get compliments on it every time I wear it. I think itโs a great idea to get a larger watch like this โ โ โ it really does stand out, especially on small/delicate wrists. The first one (brown) is so cute!
I have a gold Michael Kors watch and I absolutely LOVE IT. I get so many complements on it, it is fashionable an I can easily check the time. I think you should get the brown one! Itโs so cute!
Iโm not a watch girl whatsoever, however, like you Iโve noticed the watch trend. I avoided the trend until about two weeks ago when I came across a Michael Kors watch for 90$ on editorscloset.com. It was PERFECT for me. It isnโt the chain links (I have baby wrists and cannot wear adult size bracelets), its white, well almost cream, and has a touch of the rose gold.
Now Iโm a watch person โฆ although, I have yet to use the watch for time. Maybe I just check my phone out of habit? ๐
Hi Gina! What do you think of the Polar F40? Iโve had a Polar F10 for ever (i dont think they even make them anymore). Anywho- I also have a Garmin watch (that is really difficult to use) for gps running, etc. What heart rate monitors do you recommend (including gps and non gps) Thanks!
I have a really nice watch that I bought myself about 6-7 years ago. It will be with me for the rest of my life. And after that, Skylarโs life ๐
I used to wear it every day but now, I seem to let it sit in my jewelry box next to my wedding ring (donโt wear that either!)โฆwhat can I say, I leave the house in yoga pants, a tshirt, and flipflops. And my cell phone ๐
Need to start wearing my jewelry again.
And you can rock any watch you want. Go for it!
Iโm in LOVE with that first brown watch! If you donโt get it, I will!
Iโm not a watch person. The only times Iโve ever worn a watch regularly was when I was doing research in the cardiovascular physiology lab while I was in graduate school and when I was working in a clinical setting as an Exercise Physiologist. The rest of the time Iโve used a cell phone, a stop watch that I kept in my backpack or a small clock on my desk.
Ohhh..those are purdy! I got a silver one last year from Guess and I love it, it goes with everything.
My hubby told me about MKโs watches, theyโre kinda cute. But I have a question for youโฆhave you ever done any reviews on heart-rate monitors? Iโm thinking of purchasing one, and I trust your judgementโฆ ๐
I have two rose gold MK watches, one with bling and one thatโs men inspired. I love them both!
I dig the silver one. Iโve had a Movado for 7 years but couldnt where it while I was prego. I got used to not wearing one so now I just check my phone. :0)
Iโm so not a watch person, but Iโm dying for a chunky boyfriend watch in silver. They look so sexy and classic!
I may be a little obsessed with big watches! They are awesome!!! I wear a watch every dayโฆso I sayโฆgo for it!
I have a gold Michael Kors Chronograph (the 5055) and I LOVE IT. I was not previously a watch person but figured Iโd invest in a nice one. Iโve had it for about a month and now I always check my wrist for the time, even if Iโm not wearing it. Iโve never been a huge gold fan but Iโve been loving it more and more lately, and I really think the menโs-inspired watches look great in gold so I snatched it up! My second choice would have been rose gold.
I got this awesome Michael Kors watch that I SWORE I absolutely NEEDEDโฆ. but who am I kidding? Iโm completely a cell phone checking kinda girlโฆ and have yet to wear it once in the YEAR Iโve had it. Oh life, youโre a funny one ๐
Anyway, that first one you posted is GORGEOUS!
I would LOVE a nice watch, but since Iโm always on the computer or have my phone it just doesnt seem necessary. Plus what I really want is an antique Rolex, so cell phone it is!
Oooh love the brown one!! I just bought the two tone silver and gold MK one and I love it! You get used to the size of it really quickly. TWSS? lol.
I was actually thinking about watches on my way home from work โ Iโm thinking of getting Jason a nice one for Christmas, but then I thought about getting one for myself too! Iโm a phone checker but I like the look of some watches.
Iโm not a watch person, the hubby is (he has like 5 of them) always looking at watches, it drives me crazy sometimes. lol I want to get one, but Iโm a bit apprehensive as to what I like and what style to get. Great ideas!
I have an idea for your wedding ring situation! Get a plain necklace, and wear your rings on it! I saw a lil pregnant lady at work the other day sportinโ the look ๐ As for the watchโฆโฆ its love hate. Days I might find utilizing a arm clock handy, I donโt have one. And then thereโs days I wear one and things are going suuuuppperrrr slow at work and I am constantly gazing at itโฆ. โits only been 5 minutes?!! ajf;akldsjf;dskjf?!?!!โ -solution epiphany: wear a broken watch! lol ๐
Iโm a cell phone checker, all the way. Though if I had to choose a watch out of those three, I think the silver one is fantasticโ totally classic and would go with everything!
I love love love gold watches!! Especially rose goldโฆbut I do hate how it clashes with my wedding ring :/
I have the MK one you posted in silver. I love it, and itโs my first real watch. I chose the silver because it matches my platinum wedding rings. Rose gold is beautiful too though. Let us know what you get! I feel like a lot of us will be living vicariously through you, haha!
Iโm definitely more of a skinny, girly watch girlโฆ but I like the rose colored one!
I check my phone but I am loving these watches!! I would definitely invest in this and buy a cheap ring to wear while youโre pregnant. Iโm about to go overseas, not taking my ring over but yet want ppl to know that I am married so Iโm buying just a little fake ring from like macys or something. Spend the money on the watch.
You should totally get a watch! I used to just check the time on my phone, but then I decided I wanted one of the big, trendy watches last year. Now I LOVE it; itโs so convenient to always know the time. I ended up going with silver (Michael Kors, similar to the one you showed), and I wear it every day with casual or fancy clothes. I think you would be surprised how much you like itโฆ.
I am obsessed with watches. I have FIVE (yes five) Michael Kors oversized watches and I love them all. I never used to wear one until I got my first one and then it became an addiction and I bought four more. Not all at the same time though haha.
Cell phone girl!!! I hate the water icky feel!
You know when you wash your hands and the water is trapped between your skin and your hands!
I have been thinking about getting one of these exact watches for a while nowโฆI especially love the rose goldโฆyou may have just convinced me I need one!
I have the Michael Kors tortoiseshell watch from last year and Iโm in love with it. I never want to wear another one. Seriously, if I owned aโฆI donโt know, a Patek Phillipe or an A. Lange & Sohne watch, I would choose my Michael Kors over it. I think I like the brown best! It seems menswear-inspired, but with the perfect little feminine touch.
Iโve never been much of a watch girl myself until the men-inspired large watches came outโฆ I love them. I ended up getting one similar to the second picture because like you, most of my jewelry is white gold. I donโt wear it all the time because it still feels weird sometimes, but I really like it. You definitely should get one!
My wrists are small as well, so I went with the Michele โUrban Miniโ diamond. Itโs perfectly proportioned to get that oversized look w/o being too big. If you shop around online, you may be able to find the plain steel model for a reasonable price- $300-400. Nordies Rack is awesome for Micheleโs at a discount too.
I have had my Michael kors watch for 3 years now and love it!! My fiancรฉ said he would buy me another one but the only problem is I canโt decide which one! I like the gold and white! What I really need is a michele watch, (1300$$) that way I could just change the bandsโฆ Fiancรฉ wonโt go for that tho ๐
I just got an all white fossil โbigโ watch that Iโm absolutely in love with. I have very small wrists too and I think it looks fine so I think you should go for it! I love that first one.
I have a watch but I rarely wear it. I actually donโt really care for any jewelry period lol.
I have 3 of them and am obsessed!!! i also have 2 really big fossil watches, one white and one silver with crystals around the face ๐ LOVE big watches!!
LOVE the first one!
I am definitely a cell phone girl, but I love watches. I just wear them for accessory not necessarily to check the time. Whenever Iโm wearing a watch I usually still look at my phone, Iโm not even sure why!
I was never a watch person. A few years ago though I randomly got obsessed with a Coach watch and got it for my birthday. I wore it for a while, but then I just couldnโt get used to it. It bothered my wrist (cyst there) and I havenโt worn it since!
I love love love my white fossil watch. I wear it EVERYDAY and it really jazzes up any outfit. It isnโt the OVERSIZED version so maybe an alternative if you arenโt 100% on the big watch bandwagon.
I wear a watch buuuuut I use my cell phone to check the time. Yeah, itโs silly.
I used to wear a watch, but I would loop it through the belt loop on my pants instead of wearing it around my wrist. Now, I like you, just have a cell phone. Not so useful when you are out working out and donโt have pockets for it though!
I am most definitely a watch person! For a while I was only a cell phone checker, until my boyfriend and I began a long distance relationship. I realized that when flying back and forth from DC to LA, not wearing a watch and being unable to check the time on my powered-down phone made me unable to tell whether I had been flying for one hour or four hours! It drove me nuts, so I started wearing a watch. Now two and a half years later, weโre together in California and Iโm still hooked on watches. All colors, some expensive, some cheap, but all menโs!
I actually got the Rose Gold MK one for my birthday and I love it. The shape is square so it gives it a unique look and has tiny crystals marking the numbers. Butttโฆ.. you can never go wrong with brown! I wear it too muchโฆ if thatโs possible ๐
i always wear brown, too ๐
Hey Gina! Thanks for reppin our man ๐
Iโve worked for Michael for 5 years. Its always nice to see excitement around our beautiful pieces! ๐
Get a MK watch. U wonโt be dissapoined.
i will be proud to rep your man ๐
iโm thinking of going for the espressoโฆ.
