“An inch of time is an inch of gold, but you can’t buy that inch of time with an inch of gold”- Chinese Proverb
My mum loves watches *coughs expensive watches* lol, me? Couldn’t be assed to be honest lol. She tried to pass on this passion by buying me watches a couple times when I was younger, and sometimes she’d give me a watch she wasn’t wearing anymore; but nothing worked. I hated the feeling of something tight around my wrist ALL THE DAMN TIME, so I either lost them or just stopped wearing them 🙁Toki Doki has some cute ones!Ciao Bella! ha ha haSo do Flud! This one’s called “The Moment” watch!I HATED watches; in fact, I hated them so much that when I put them on, my wrist would instantly start itching and i’d break out into some weird rash! *gross*As I’ve gotten older, I’ve started to really really love them, now I gotta work on getting past that suffocating wrist-grip! But I’m kinda diggin these gold watches…I’ve never felt the need to own a g-shock up until now… lolSo where can you find more golden goodness?? (or just more goodness in general) KARMALOOP!!! and of course, the internet and stores lol.I gotta get me a gold watch!Have a lovely day!!BIG FAT KISSES!“The desire of gold is not for gold. It is for the means of freedom and benefit.”-Ralph Waldo Emerson
