Karen’s Opinion

because My Opinion Counts


Time Pieces

I heard that watches are becoming a thing of the past. What?! I feel naked without my watch. It is the only piece of jewelry I wear most times. I have tried wearing bracelets but they drive me crazy. I revert back to my beautiful, trustworthy watch for its faithful job of keeping me on time.

I remember, about 35 years ago, looking longingly at the Seiko watches at our local jewelry store. Yes, the local jeweler was who we counted on for advice and quality time pieces, necklaces and earrings. Well, my husband was paying attention! I never know if he is listening or if what I say goes in one ear and out the other. LOL He was definitely listening and surprised me with a beautiful Seiko watch with small diamonds on each side of the face of the watch. I still have that watch and it still works!

Do you wear a watch? What do you count on to keep the time? I’ve heard that many folks use their cell phones to check the time. I like the convenience of looking at my watch. I’d hate to have to dig for my cell phone to check the time. How about you?

Meaningful Gifts

This is the time of year when we ponder over what to give as gifts to celebrate the birth of Christ. I don’t take that decision lightly! In fact, I tend to worry about what to buy. I want each recipient of my gift to know that I think highly of them. The three wise men that visited Jesus Christ when he was born, brought him gifts. From that, the tradition of giving gifts on Christmas to family and friends developed.

The gift that never goes out of style and always assures that the recipient knows you thought especially of them is a beautiful new watch. I still remember my husband talking about how he loved Seiko Watches and how he surprised me with a beautiful gold one our second Christmas together. It has little diamonds on each side of the face. I still have that watch! Buying quality has its advantages.

A quality watch does not have to be expensive. Bluedial dot com is a reputable reseller of many of the best brands, including Seiko. They offer amazingly are low prices, with FREE 2-day shipping.

When considering a special gift for a special person, consider buying a beautiful watch.

Pamper Yourself

How many of you use your phone to check the time? I forget that my phone tells me the time and I’d have to dig it out of my purse so that is not the best way for me! I like a good old fashioned watch. In fact, I feel panicky when I look at my wrist and my watch is not there. My watch is part of me!

I think of my watch as a necessary piece of fashionable jewelry. Just like my glasses, I like a fashionable watch. I have found that Blue Dial.com has the best selection of beautiful ladies watches at the best prices. I like to have a heavy duty watch like the ESQ Classic Sport II to wear every day. I am hard on watches so I appreciate the brushed stainless steel case and double locking clasp. I am always smacking the face of my watch on things like the inside of the washing machine so I especially like that this watch has a scratch resistant mineral crystal.

When I attend church or go to a wedding, it is fun to have a fancier watch like one from the ESQ Ladies Fusion Collection. It has a beautiful Rose-Gold toned steel case and rose-gold-tone sub-dials with sweeping hands. A little bling is nice for those special occasions!

Pamper yourself with a new watch from Blue Dial and you will find low prices and FREE 2-day shipping.

Husband’s Birthday

Okay, it is September. There are a few family birthdays in September, one being my husband’s. If I had a lot of money, I know that he would love to have a Mini-Cooper and a tear drop camper trailer.

We stopped at a car dealership on our way home from taking our daughter to the airport on Tuesday. They had just received a shipment of tear drop campers! My husband has been interested in these cute little campers for a few years but had yet to find one near us so he could actually look at one. It was fun to see how such a small camper could hold so much. Hubby was in heaven. LOL

Anyway, since I don’t have the funds to buy a camper or car, I have been looking at Aquaswiss watches at Blue Dial dot com. They are an authorized reseller of well known watch brands and offer exceptional prices. And, since I have procrastinated and need to rush to get hubby’s gift, they offer FREE 2-day shipping! Thank you Blue Dial!

My husband is very hard on watches and usually buys a cheap watch to wear while he is working. When he wants to dress up, he enjoys wearing a fashionable watch. I think he will like this Swissport watch with its Roman numeral numbered dial and a sturdy rubber strap.

Why am I under my desk? Because, when the storm was nearing, I unplugged everything before lighting could zap my computer. After the storm, I needed my computer in order to see what the time was. Now, that is ridiculous! I seriously need a watch.

My husband is not addicted to the computer at all and so he still relies on his watch. He has a cheap watch that he wears while working and keeps his special watches to wear to church. Watches are to guys like shoes are to us girls.
