Nah, I got the chainsaw for her birthday.

It does qualify as jewelry though, doesn't it?

Don't do it unless you want to sell all your watches, and give her half. Smile

So Phil if they don't sell will they be 90% off like all the other Christmas stuff in stores? Smile

Harry, it is an auction where that high bidder wins.
After all it is only money. I am sure Mrs. Hyaduck would be very pleased when she unwraps this beauty Christmas morning. What no chainsaw? Wink

You see Phil I'm in a predicament, I got my wife a new chainsaw a few years ago, I got her a couple of motorcycles, a bunch of watches, I'm even getting her a new bathtub for Christmas. The only thing I can think of that she might like is a new truck. Maybe I can get her the truck, yea a new truck, I like the sound of that, a new truck...

You guys are lucky! The women I buy watches for always want diamonds on them, even on the 0-size pocket watches.


Best Regards,

I'd try it but its the thought that counts. And, she wouldn't think much of it. Smile

My girls feel that "sincere" thoughts are conveyed by solid gold cases with six diamonds & up for pendant watches, twenty diamonds & up for wristwatches.


Best Regards,
