Love the ring Lisa. The Stone matches the numbers on your new Datejust?

Fairly close. The numbers are sort of a lapis blue... a bit grayer than the topaz. But good enough.

Art is raiding his wife's (or lucky daughter's?) jewelry box!

[dbelle7]

Lisa, I'll be needing contact info for that shop....:-)
p.s. we have the same John Hardy bracelet.

[mikkibarry]

lovely lovely bling from both of you. How much was the amethyst, by chance.... (not that I have any money left but...)

Hey Dawna - do you mean the serpentine-looking bracelet with the "A" on it? That belongs to the woman who works there... but I did like it, especially since "A" is my last initial.

If you seriously want more contact info or pics, just tell me. I live just up the street from the shop.

Can't remember but I don't think they are that much.

The amethyst... upper $900s. However, he's got a 20 percent off deal going until Valentine's.

Oh - do you mean Art's amethyst?

My avatar is a moon stone. I knew nothing of them until the other day when a good friend sent me one. They are the state gem of Florida and I never had heard of them.

That's about what I remember.

Awwww, thanks! That is so funny, J!!! I've never come across another 'Karis', though I've heard of a few gals named 'Charys'....none I've met in person though! Not a common name at all.....it's actually Greek....but I'm not.

As for the cowgirl vision, I like it! Yiiiiihaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!

Mikki needs to post her vintage jewelry.

Karis... I think living in Texas qualifies you as being a cowgirl.

No, I meant the one from your little vintage shop. It's gorgeous. *pine* I didn't think Art was allowed to pillage jewelry boxes and sell off items :-)

[kcmo]

Oooh Lisa, what a fun day you've had! Awesome ring selection at that shop! Congrats on the one you chose...very nice! And I think it will look great with your DJ!

Wait, do you normally wear your watch on your left or right wrist?

Could be worse! But just don't tell anyone that I'm not crazy about riding horses, OK?!

Maybe if you asked Art nicely....

Yes, I really liked that one in the shop. Had it been set in white gold... well, I'd be a little poorer right now. Twenty percent off.... hmmmm! You might need that ring.

Oh....haha, yes...sorry, wrong wrist! I was curious though, because I had never seen a personalized one, if it is a John Hardy.

I really do want more contact info whenever you have time to pm, me.
I had to come up there soon to visit the Infiniti dealership for a little repair work. :-)

Hi Mikki, just wanna say welcome to the forum. You seem to be after older ladies Rolex watches, well there is a lady here, Linda (DrLindaPHD) who seems to be fast becoming the ladies vintage Rolex expert. Maybe look out for her on the forums and her posts.

A couple of watches she has

Hi Karis. Yes think she is loving it. She's has been wearing it everytime I have seen her, and I think that says a lot. She doesn't always know when I might pop in, so not just wearing it cos I come round.

I wear watches on my right wrist, Karis. I'll probably wear the ring on my right hand middle finger. It fits both my first or second fingers so either will work.

Glad you like it. Yes, it was a fun outing.

She loves it... just a feeling... call it Mother's Intuition.
