ok update, i just got back from the mall, they can repair it but it wont be done until monday. and i would never lie to my g/f about anything, i just know it was her nicest watch.
like i said she doesnt come from a wealthy family and to her this watch is nice.

maybe the watch i picked out is ugly to some of you but im not a watch expert nor a ladies jewelry expert. but it doesnt matter really and i doubt she will care how it looks.
like after years of being married is it really the look of the ring that matters?

i would rather surprise her with a ugly watch that i thought she might like then for her to never get suprises.

did you remember to have them change the battery and put the back back on while they had it?
or are you going to try that again when you get it back....
hahahahahahahaha.

picked up the repaired watch today, she was happy to get it back for work. she does occupational therapy with kids and she is on a tight schedule so she really needed it.
she liked a watch they had there that had a light blue face but it was pretty ugly also.

so im pretty sure she might like this one.
ill find out in a few days i guess.
ill try to get her on video when i give it to her lol

Well, I don't necessarily agree with your choice in watch, but you are to be commended for wanting to give your gf a nice surprise! I hope you two have many happy years together.

i tried everything, i think it may have a problem and wont snap back in.

I think you're suppose to push and twist...

Anyways, just toss the watch away and say she lost it

You should have held off on buying that watch for her and ask her to pick one out... or at least pick out a watch that was similar to the one she had.

because if the man would have taken it to a jewler instead of diy... he wouldnt have this problem....

Jeweler for that? Heck, i take my watch to Sears and for $10, it even includes the battery!

i don't like to be lied to. he should just tell the truth. it was an honest mistake.

Yeah, make sure she doesn't find out that you lied, otherwise she'll sound like this girl.

Technically, it wouldn't be lying. HE certainly can't change batteries on a Guess watch...

LOL that looks like a watch you'd see an old grandma wearing. I must have like 10 expensive watches I've never worn given to me by my rich in-laws. What do people see in watches? I just use my cell phone to check the time.

I think the sheer fact that you care a lot about her speaks volumes

Every couple has different ways of talking and handling things.

We shouldn't presume to know how close the OP and his gf is. I just hope your present is well received, and that your gift will be cherished.

tommorrow its supposed to come so im gonna have my camera set up to capture her reaction on video so everyone can tell by her facial expression if she likes or dislikes it.
i just got to find a way to film it without her knowing it.
i will tell her afterwords of my filming it because im not gonna have anything going on she doesnt know about. but it will be her real reaction to it.

My girlfriend's two guess watches have been about 125 each. Both have Swarovski crystal, and one has pearls. That doesn't look quite as nice, so probably 75-100 bucks.
