				<description>&#060;p&#062;Nixon watches are cool.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Nice choice. &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I like leather bands too.  They wear out, but they are softer and more comfortable. &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I also slide my wedding rings onto my watch band to keep them out of the way and safe when my rings are annoying me but I don't have anywhere safe to put them.  I don't think you could do that with a metal band!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Probably heretical around here, but I consider my watch to be more a part of my arm than an accessory. I wear it all the time, and function far outweighs looks. I will remove it for the most formal occasions and put on a &#034;nice&#034; watch, but I have ruined so many by forgetting that i had it on and wearing it into the shower that I can no longer worry about my watch. Though I try to pick a &#034;cute&#034; watch, it must be water resistant and have a backlight. That always leads me to &#034;gear-looking&#034; watches. My current watch has a purple band and wide oval face, and it's cute and seems to work with almost everything I own -- but that's purely happenstance. My last watch was definitely a &#034;gear&#034; watch -- a Timex Ironman Triathlon.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I have had this pinned and on my Shopbop wishlist, but didn't act quickly enough.  It is sold out in a lot of places.  It was $125.  BBQ is my advice.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Looks great and very versatile.  I have a watch that has a black leather band w/ gold face, and another one with midnight blue band and gold face.  The style of the blue one is very similar to yours.  Although I finally recently got a third one (huge face, magenta leather band), I was very happy wearing the first two watches day in and day out before that.  I still wear them with everything.  I mix metals with abandon though and happily wear the gold faced watches with my silver/white gold rings.  I guess if mixing metals bugs you, you might want to get a watch that matches the majority of your jewelry.  Obviously for me it is not even a consideration.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;That is a beautiful watch. It is funny, I recently took all of my old favorite watches to the repair shop and had new crystals and straps put on them. i am back to 'watching', also.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Do you want to wear it every day, or just sometimes? For every day a metal band would probably be more versatile, but otherwise I would give this one a try. If you ultimately aren't satisfied with the color it's not expensive to swap out the band. I really like the clean lines of the face.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Another yay vote from me. I love this watch for you, Jules.&#060;br /&#062;
Also: the same thing happened to me two years ago, I hadn't worn a watch for over a decade and all of a sudden I needed one in my life right that instant;-)

&#060;p&#062;This works well with your retro gene!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;After decades of being watch free, I have decided I suddenly need a watch and this need is quite desperate and all consuming.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I have been checking out the offerings and I'm surprised to find that I'm drawn to those designs with a leather strap.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;This Nixon watch is really singing to me, I love how the gold face is so simple and will work with my wedding bands but the strap is black and I'm blond. Does this mean I will have to try to bookend somewhere in most outfits for the watch to look intrinsic? Would it look totally out of kilter on the days I wear a softer palette?&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;A little more information:&#060;br /&#062;
My skins undertones are pink and I have blue eyes.&#060;br /&#062;
My preferred neutrals are grey,black and navy.&#060;br /&#062;
My preferred colours are muted blues, purples and pink.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;So what say you (given this would be my only watch), give it a try, keep looking or change the strap?&#060;br /&#062;
