    Dh wants to get me a new watch for our anniversary. yay! i've been wanting one for awhile but forgot about it (last year, cough) and he reminded me and said he'd like to get me one, keeping in touch with the modern anniversary gifts.

    Now, which one? I do like them both. One seems more classic (the silver one) but also VERY similiar to the one i have now (third photo). But I also like the Invicta!

    The Invicta (see first photo)

    The Coutura (second photo)

    This is for every day. My mom gave me a really nice Seiko that is my "dress up" watch that is more bracelet than watch.

    I'm open to suggestions, too. But i'm really partial to the pearl face+rose gold.

    I love the invicta. it is very pretty, but they are also great watches.  I got FI an invicta for valentines day and he gets sooo many compliments on it.

    are you getting it online?

    Oh that's great to hear they're good watches! I'm leaning heavily towards the Invicta. But he'd probably buy it online since it's not a newer model.

    The Invicta reminds me of the Chanel J12. Something about that white band-- I love it.

    I think that's great if he buys it online - he'll probably get a better price for it anyway. I bought FI's watch from overstock.com, it was muuuuuch cheaper.

    Yeah i found a link on it for amazon so i think he'll go that way

    Everybody who voted for the Seiko--why no speaking up? haha.

    the Invicta's a nice change of style from the kind i've worn for over 6 years. It's still ticking, but i like how classy it is =]

    Well so much for that! DH dropped the ball and didn't buy it and now it's not available anymore.

    I voted for the Seiko! Mainly b/c I'm not a leather band type of girl. I personally prefer the band to be a metal band. But, I think both are very cute watches!
