what watch does your dp/dh wear?

[ilovetochat]

I want to buy dp a present for his 50th birthday and am thinking about a watch so want ideas.

Budget?

If lots, a Rolex is a fab gift.

Snobby maybe but mine wears a role

Me im happy with a cheap £5 one from the market but men are funny with watches.

My dad will only wear brightling (sp)

• rolex

breitling but rolex and omega are just as nice

dh wears a rolex. Timeless classic imo and there are some nice ones.

Movado

Police

An Omega day to day. Eyeing up a Breitling though!

I want to buy one for dh as well

need to save up though

I like omega ones

He doesn't wear one. He looks at the position of the sun to tell the time

god it's a minefield

there are about a million different types for each brand!

how do oyu choose?

breightling

I bought DH a Tag for one anniversary. It's the sort that don't need batteries. It's his main watch, and he only wears his old, cheap one, when we go on holiday.

Diesel

DP has a really nice one we got in France, Henry something or other I think. Sorry that's a bit vague isn't it

I bought my DP a Tag for his 30th. He bought me one once and was very keen for me to repay the favour!

dp would love a tag but we are going on holiday for his birthday and im paying so cant spend that much on the present. just want something for him to keep off me and dd.

He has two Bell & Ross watches and a Reverso. He decides what to wear depending on rest of outfit.

T W Steel, one everyday one and one dressy

an Omega speedmaster also

couple of more fashiony watches..diesel and fossil ones

I got dh a blancpain for our 10th anniversary

very tasteful, very discreet and hideously expensive ...

Gosh those Blancpain watches are lovely.

DH wears a second hand (or 'vintage') rolex which I bought him when we got engaged. You can get some of them quite a bit cheaper than new. I searched eBay for watch dealers and then contacted a couple directly to let them know my budget/style wanted etc.

My DH got an Omega for our 25th Wedd Anniv. He chose it himself as there are so many to choose from & a watch is soooo personal. Went to a jewellers where they specialise (the kind where you ring the doorbell to go in & then they lock the door after you & keep all the beautiful watches locked up ALL THE TIME) in Rolex etc. Twas fun & had a nice day out as we went to a town about 1 hours drive away. Anyway DH very pleased and wears said watch every day.

DH wears an Omega that I bought him when we got engaged. He chose it though, a watch is so personal I think.

Dp wears a Tag that I bought him on our first anniversary. I also have one - they are fantastic watches - I never take mine off and it is wearing very well - I have had it years and it still looks new.
