Which gold watch for me?

Jewell

Veteran

Hi All,
I'm back again for more shopping help. A gold boyfriend style watch has been on my wish list for a while and I've got three contenders for you to vote on. All three are by Fossil and are priced similarly (about a $40 difference between the least and most expensive). They are all about the same size, too.

So, which do you like best? Please help me decide!

#1, Love the roman numerals - and just one dial button on the side.

I like #2 best.

Voting for #1. It caught my eye right away.

I think they're all nice. I think it depends on your style. #1 to me is the most feminine of the three, if a touch of femininity is important to you.

I like #1 best because of the simple band.

#1 is my pick.

Gigi, femininity is a major aspect of my personal style. But for this particular wardrobe item, I kind of want it to look like I borrowed Mr. Jewell's watch. My only other watch, a silver Fossil, is small and dainty. I'd like the gold one to be the opposite.

ETA: Angie, #2 has outstanding reviews! No one has chimed in to review the other two, unfortunately.

#2!

I like #1. I think #2 focuses more on the band and less on the face which is fine if that's the look you want. Full disclosure: #1 is similar to the one I have (from Costco) and I'm very happy with it

Umm, I can't decide. Which ones catches your eye the most when you put them on?

I vote #1 because I think it's the most elegant (and because I have one that looks very similar), but i don't think you can go wrong with any of them.

Love the bold face on #2 -- fun!!! The other two are lovely but seem more classic and traditional.

Thanks for helping me make up my mind, ladies! It's funny, the most expensive watch didn't get a single vote. It also seems to have disappeared from the retailer's site since I posted yesterday.

I got Mr. Jewell to cast a vote as well and he voted #2.

I've seen #1 in person, but not #2. I've checked, and three nearby stores have both in stock. I'll try each one IRL to be sure, but for now the bold face on #2 has won me over.
