A nice Seiko male divers watch! She has always wanted a diver style watch with the rotating bezel so that she can time tasks and things in classes (she's a teacher). But the female range is terrible, and she likes the male ranges anyway because they're bigger which seems to be the fashion these days anyway. She has told me before that she doesn't want a typical small ladies watch and wants something a bit different and more noticeable. She'll be so happy when she opens it

A new bed (well actually it's for both of us).

Hopefully a good 'christening' will be my present when it arrives

I've got similar but I have a small ladies version of a TAG F1 because I hate the thought of something that looks like Captain Hooks alarm clock strapped to my wrist.

These large macho watches look like there should be a stick of dynamite attached to them like on the roadrunner/Willie Coyote cartoons.

Good idea! My missus likes Baby G G shocks (sort of unisex) and has a big Nixon (The Dial) she really likes too - she also doesn't like overly "girly" watches.

It's a Seiko SKXA35 which has been her favourite when looking on the Internet at loads of different watches. I'm guessing she liked that one the best because it's a nice yellow colour It's only sold in North America so it was a huge pain finding a website that would ship it to me here in the UK.

Mrs Swiss is nuts about Lego so there has to be some form of Lego bought at Xmas or else she has a right sulk. A few other things but not mentioning it on here as she sometimes pops into SN

Though going by what you lot are buying, I might be safe
