This is why one must put on the watch on his/her own wrist because it may look different on others.

Speaking of which, I feel shy trying watches when I know I'm not buying today.

I wanted to try Seiko SRP639 and SNZH55 and SNZH57 these 3 watches, but I very shy when the sales person offer to take the watch out and even ask me how much is my budget etc. Anyone with the same problem?

If I got ready cash and intend to buy I would dare to try, but no cash don't dare try haizzz.

let her try the 116610LN, you'll never know. if it suits can hoot that for her. you get to wear sometimes too. bags are never worth it.

We think that bags are never worth it... BUT they think otherwise!!!

Just hoot the sexpensive bag for her and make her happy! You'll be happy too!!

Just say you are trying various watches to determine which one to buy and there isn't really a budget.

She tried before, but doesn't like the cyclops. But then again, she said if I like it, just buy it for myself... She will wear it occasionally, like what she's doing now.

To be very honest, she's a simple woman who isn't materialistic at all, and doesn't bear to spend thousands on bags. Her most expensive bag probably costs in the range of hundreds. In fact, I'm more of a brand-***** and vain than she is.

The bag which I wanna get her, is probably something which she thinks is "good to have, not a must-have"... And also as her first birthday gift as my missus.

Happy wife, happy life? Haha!

Celine and Loewe are two very excellent choices fabian...Iirc japan has quite a few exclusive designs.

Well Donten, generally...
women love bags; men love watches
women love fashion; men loves cars

I'm sure many of us here can relate to this ;) our wives don't understand why we need to buy so many watches, similarly we don't understand why our wives need so many bags lolx

I really don't like handbags and diamonds. My wifey handbags and Jewellery are the real safe queens in the house. But hey if it makes her happy I am ok lah. ( btw it's not that much handbags and Jewellery Hor. Not boasting here but sharing a married man dark side :( )

Then recently She is like hinting another bag and I am refusing to pick up the hint

Henabi korkor, my fiancée prefers these brands, the more classic / understated kind.. But she can't bear to splash that amount of $$ on a bag.. And would rather spend it on experience (e.g. holidays).

So.. Since she can't bring herself to do it.. I'll buy it for her!

However, she isn't into jewellery (as in diamonds) at all.. Her only diamond accessory is the humble engagement ring from yours truly.

So.. To say what are her soft spots (things which she would readily put the cash down for), I really don't know... :s13:

Oh, and she does provide (moral) support in my pursuit of watches... Lol.

support you buy watches then in future you must support her in bags :s13:

here are a few quiet brand bags you can consider
- Saint Laurent Classic Sac de Jour bag
- Gucci Bamboo Leather Top Handle bag
- Alexander wang
- LV City Steamer / Dora / Alba (New design). imo the LV dora series is targeting ladies who wants a really "quiet" LV bag

Men loves technology and guns! And boobs too lol
Women is fashion, jewels,shoe, bag etc all fashion or big nice house

"big nice house" that's the most expensive item!

Forget to include the nice deco and furniture inside ... Some may want a pool and big yard with nice view to go with big nice house lol

big house + pool + yard + fully furnish??? oh gosh... bery difficult in Sink-ka-pore lah :(
