It is very lovely and perfect for you. Happy (early) Birthday. =) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-322932 Tue, 29 Mar 2011 13:25:04 +0000 rute 322932@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely! And not too classic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-322855 Tue, 29 Mar 2011 04:11:48 +0000 rosee 322855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YES!!! let's be watch twins! I tried in on today at the local mall (surprised they had it considering the Fossil Canada website doesn't).</p> <p>1. I think I read that you said you had a small wrist (me too). The band is a good width -- not too slim or too thick, I really like it. Plus the links are a bit chunkier so it's not as delicate looking but still classic.</p> <p>2. the face is a bit smaller than I thought it would be (especially compared to my other 2 watches) but now I think I like that too. Might as well get something different -- ladylike and classy!</p> <p>3. the rose gold tone is really lovely and I found it to be more flattering than either the gold tone and silver tone on me (I tried a few watches, I always comparison shop), I posted another thread about metal colors (don't know how to bump so you'll have to look for it if interested), and Steph replied that rose gold is a neutral gold tone. I did more web searching on rose gold, and most said it flatters BOTH cool and warm skin tones. I think I also read you wear a lot of earth tones, so this could complement them well. I was wearing brown check pants, a charcoal sweater and an aubergine coat today and the rose gold tone looked really good with all of them.</p> <p>4, Also learned today that rose gold (in general) isn't as common, but is more often found in vintage jewelry pieces. I like that this watch has a vintage-y look (to me anyways) and I hope to wear it with vintage dresses and other dress-up clothes (my other watches are too casual for that). I'll probably wear it more everyday too.</p> <p>SOOO... thank you Kate for introducing me to this lovely timepiece, and in case I wasn't already clear... YAAAAAY!!!</p> <p>Do enjoy your watch! And happy birthday! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-322480 Mon, 28 Mar 2011 18:09:59 +0000 Scarlet 322480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-322379 Mon, 28 Mar 2011 16:31:13 +0000 Anonymous 322379@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kate, I also thought of the wider band, especially for your age, as a bit more trendy. I have small wrists but have the jeweler remove links to get the band to fit well. I like the first one that MNsara linked to with mother-of-pearl face. However, jewelry is personal and if you've had bigger watches before and not been happy, then you've probably chosen the right one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-322366 Mon, 28 Mar 2011 16:14:21 +0000 Kate 322366@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sarah, I had a watch with a wider band (also from fossil) many years ago, and it always felt somewhat clunky and disproportionate. I can appreciate the men's watch look on others, but not on my tiny wrists (I wear my watches on the tightest or second tightest setting). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-322346 Mon, 28 Mar 2011 15:51:00 +0000 Saretta 322346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay, absolutely. That rose gold watch is beautiful and I think you could wear it with lots of outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-322343 Mon, 28 Mar 2011 15:48:10 +0000 Sarah 322343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely! I love rose gold AND Fossil watches. Have you considered a wider band? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-322328 Mon, 28 Mar 2011 15:28:08 +0000 biscuitsmom 322328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love rose gold and think it will be a great addition to your wardrobe! Its a classic style which looks great now and will still be stylish in many years.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-322272 Mon, 28 Mar 2011 13:58:33 +0000 celia 322272@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the watch is beautiful and would buy one myself. I'll be waiting for pics </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-322256 Mon, 28 Mar 2011 13:37:51 +0000 stringy 322256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote yay, because it's a lovely watch. But are you able to try it on in a store before asking for it? If so, it'd be great to get some pictures of it on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-322187 Mon, 28 Mar 2011 08:09:31 +0000 Katiepea 322187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is very pretty and a classic style. I would make my wardrobe work around it if necessary! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-322179 Mon, 28 Mar 2011 07:53:50 +0000 Stephanie 322179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kate, considering the palette you dress in, my concern would be how rose gold looks against earth tones. (Being tone-deaf to earth tones, I don't know.) But I love the shape and style. Très elegant. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-322074 Mon, 28 Mar 2011 02:56:59 +0000 Kate 322074@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>rosee, we should be watch twins!!! I noticed that one of my professors had a rose gold wedding ring (though I didn't even know what rose gold was at the time), and after several classes of staring at her hand I ended up searching to see what metal it was. I've been obsessing over rose gold ever since! </p> <p>Angie, I did try the watch on at fossil, but didn't take any pictures. I asked my parents for the watch, so I'll post pictures once it arrives and give you permission to veto it if it's not fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-321990 Mon, 28 Mar 2011 00:45:21 +0000 cheryl 321990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I voted yay! I think its gorgeous </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-321984 Mon, 28 Mar 2011 00:33:35 +0000 rosee 321984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm definitely yay for the watch... as a matter of fact I'm now coveting this watch. I absolutely love it. I especially like the rose gold. I vote "get it" and I hope you don't mind if I try to find one too (I'm in Canada so a likely a different market). They say that imitation is the best flattery.</p> <p>Enjoy your new watch (to be), Kate!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-321973 Mon, 28 Mar 2011 00:21:31 +0000 yublocka 321973@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love it and think it looks gorgeous.

But I do like the more traditional style in the rose gold too. I think it's a nice unexpected touch. I say Yay. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-321903 Sun, 27 Mar 2011 22:31:25 +0000 Angie 321903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Must *try* the watch. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-321900 Sun, 27 Mar 2011 22:30:10 +0000 Jonesy 321900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's great and voted yay! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-321879 Sun, 27 Mar 2011 22:01:23 +0000 MNsara 321879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is lovely! It is classic, but classic for a watch is good! It is not too classic for 24-y.o..</p> <p>I'm going to add a couple other links because I just went through a Macys' watch flyer they mailed out and I was smitten with a few myself. One is Fossil, but has more of a menswear vibe (don't know if that appeals to you). The other is Skagen and Skagen always has a streamlined version of classic and this one has a touch of bling (don't know if that appeals to you).<br /> <a href="http://www1.macys.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=537546&#038;PseudoCat=se-xx-xx-xx.esn_results" rel="nofollow">http://www1.macys.com/catalog/.....sn_results</a><br /> <a href="http://www1.macys.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=537629&#038;PseudoCat=se-xx-xx-xx.esn_results" rel="nofollow">http://www1.macys.com/catalog/.....sn_results</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-321804 Sun, 27 Mar 2011 20:01:58 +0000 greenglove 321804@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfect- not too classic at all.

And if I were your Mum, I'd love to gift it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-321756 Sun, 27 Mar 2011 19:21:14 +0000 Louise 321756@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay that's a beauty x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-321753 Sun, 27 Mar 2011 19:19:37 +0000 Kari 321753@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kate, I think you could pull it off, and I can really see rose gold working well with the pretty earthy tones that you wear.</p> <p>By the way, my first Fossil watch (which I haven't worn in a while, as changing the battery requires feats of epic proportions and going to a jeweler) is a delicate silver watch that is quite similar to the rose gold watch that you featured. It has a shimmery purple face, and I still love it. I guess I need to get the battery changed one of these days so I can swap it out with my chunky white watch. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fossil-rose-gold-watch#post-321751 Sun, 27 Mar 2011 19:18:20 +0000 Kate 321751@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My birthday is coming up, and I am considering asking my parents for this watch. <a href="http://www.fossil.com/en_US/shop/women/watches/classic_dress_watches/rose_gold_tone_three_hand_white_dial_watch-es2742p.html?departmentCategoryId=&#038;N=0&#038;rec=1&#038;pn=c&#038;imagePath=ES2742" rel="nofollow">http://www.fossil.com/en_US/sh.....ath=ES2742</a></p> <p>I've fallen in love with rose gold recently, and I love how simple and sophisticated this watch is. My only concern is that it could be "too classic" for a 24 year old. On the other hand, I think my outfits are colorful and lively enough that they will add the necessary youth to my look.</p> <p>yay = get the watch<br /> nay = don't get the watch</p> <p>I've also included pictures of my current watch, which I've had for four years now and still love. It has a very different vibe than the rose gold watch, and I'm not planning on retiring it. I tried on the rose gold watch at fossil, and it's the same size as my current watch. </p>
