Scarlet, I do like the date feature. Laura, I saw the EA watch during NAS, but it didn't sing to me </p> <p>For those who commented on my 'dainty' wrists - it must be an optical illusion because they are not dainty (except maybe in contrast to my large hands!), but thank you for the kind words But just maybe these oversized watches help make them look dainty . . hmmm. . .?</p> <p>Anyway, taking the second round of pics in the sunlight helped me decide that I prefer the MK watch by a hair (or two). I like the almost total whiteness (good point, Joy), and the overall design is more standard/classic (better flow, right? randomthoughts and shana) like my other watches that I have continued to enjoy.</p> <p>I certainly like the Fossil one too, or I wouldn't have labored over this so much. I really love the way there is no one perfect item and I love to hear the variety of thoughts on choosing. I need to learn these lessons myself, and how to work through these sort of decisions well (not just on a whim or mood).</p> <p>Thank you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-loose-end-i-need-your-discerning-eye/page/2#post-213463 Fri, 10 Sep 2010 01:07:36 +0000 Kari 213463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>MNSara: I like the Fossil watch best, but I'm a bit biased because I've had my eye on it, contemplating purchasing it, for a while. (Or if it's not that exact watch, it's one that is very similar.) How does it feel to you? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-loose-end-i-need-your-discerning-eye#post-213438 Fri, 10 Sep 2010 00:44:25 +0000 Megan 213438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like 1 and 2 best also. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-loose-end-i-need-your-discerning-eye#post-213364 Thu, 09 Sep 2010 22:37:55 +0000 Mamapicklejuice 213364@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>MK watch...I can't stand watches that don't have numbers...I can never tell what time it is! :-P</p> <p>Love the cohesiveness of design in the MK watch, as others have pointed out already. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-loose-end-i-need-your-discerning-eye#post-213334 Thu, 09 Sep 2010 22:12:16 +0000 bj1111 213334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>fossil, get it, love it. wear in good style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-loose-end-i-need-your-discerning-eye#post-212923 Thu, 09 Sep 2010 03:35:52 +0000 Sihaya 212923@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love 1 and 2 the best. followed by the last one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-loose-end-i-need-your-discerning-eye#post-212910 Thu, 09 Sep 2010 03:25:10 +0000 Anonymous 212910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both but Shana has some good thoughts. Also, do you wear gold colored metal? If so, the MK will blend better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-loose-end-i-need-your-discerning-eye#post-212888 Thu, 09 Sep 2010 02:50:48 +0000 marianna 212888@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm still on team MK. Looks more expensive/regal to me, and I like that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-loose-end-i-need-your-discerning-eye#post-212886 Thu, 09 Sep 2010 02:48:30 +0000 RandomThoughts (Andrea) 212886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm going to vote for the MK watch. I like it for some of the same reasons as Shana: same solid color through out and I like the basic design better. That is, I feel the face shape flows into the band more smoothly and I like the face design better as well, eg the numbers, date and the 3 dials at the bottom. I just feel the overall design is more cohesive and has better flow. The Fossil watch seems to lack finesse, IMO. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-loose-end-i-need-your-discerning-eye#post-212875 Thu, 09 Sep 2010 02:29:24 +0000 shana 212875@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think either could work. I like the Fossil for its size but I like the layout of the MK a teeny bit more and I also like the cleaner look of all white as opposed to the metal around the watch. I guess I'm voting MK!</p> <p>Also, remember that you don't want to wear this up tight on your wrist - it should sort of jangle around like a tighter bracelet (so not totally loose like a bangle). How do they feel when you wear it like that? Is one much heavier? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-loose-end-i-need-your-discerning-eye#post-212874 Thu, 09 Sep 2010 02:26:58 +0000 Lorem Ipsum 212874@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Even though, as you say, Fossil makes the MK watches, you may want to compare their warranties when making your decision, in case they're different. I'm interested to see which one you pick. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-loose-end-i-need-your-discerning-eye#post-212872 Thu, 09 Sep 2010 02:20:04 +0000 taylor 212872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The fossil is plenty big:) attractive, statement and still quite feminine<br /> The MK still look HUGE to me...too much so:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-loose-end-i-need-your-discerning-eye#post-212832 Thu, 09 Sep 2010 01:39:16 +0000 April 212832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't mind the diameter of the MK watch as much as the depth of it -- it seems like it protrudes too far from your dainty wrist. </p> <p>And thank you, Laura, for planting the idea of a rectangular watch in the mind of someone who wasn't even THINKING about watches... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-loose-end-i-need-your-discerning-eye#post-212798 Thu, 09 Sep 2010 00:57:27 +0000 Sveta 212798@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the Fossil one as it is better suited to your small wrist size. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-loose-end-i-need-your-discerning-eye#post-212793 Thu, 09 Sep 2010 00:54:14 +0000 MNsara 212793@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>UPDATE: a few more pics to help compare/contrast.

I have similarly small wrists and find chunky rectangular shapes easier to wear. I think Angie picked a rectangular-faced white watch in her NAS picks, maybe by Emporio Armani? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-loose-end-i-need-your-discerning-eye#post-212253 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 05:21:36 +0000 Scarlet 212253@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Personally I love having the date on my watch, so I would go with #2 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-loose-end-i-need-your-discerning-eye#post-212248 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 05:12:33 +0000 bj1111 212248@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>could you also take a profile view of the watches on your wrist? i'll be interested to see how far the face extends from your wrist...another dimension to think about, especially if you're a hand waver like me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-loose-end-i-need-your-discerning-eye#post-212240 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 04:57:43 +0000 MNsara 212240@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You ladies are very helpful. I can definitely see how the largest watch (pics 5-6) is too big.</p> <p>After that, there are still split preferences for the Fossil or the 'smaller' of the Marc Jacobs. </p> <p>In the morning, I'll see if it works out to take a pic with both of them on for size comparison.

I prefer the hours marked with 12 little lines. It's less busy.

I would have to go for 1 because they other ones look a little overwhelming on your teeny wrists. Can you put them all on your wrist &amp; take a picture????
