The stores will size them (which means take out a link).

Check to see if she wears more gold, or silver jewelery or a combination and try to get a watch to coordinate. I wear both, so I have a silver watch with gold tone accents. I'll try to find a pic of the one I got this year- it is a little dressy, but not too much.

OK, sorry I am being a lazybones, here is the link, not the picture:

Not waterproof though.
i also have a citizen eco-drive, and i have been very happy with it. i have worn it everyday for about five years, and it is still in good condition (the face isn't even scratched). until this watch, i had never had a watch last me more than a year (i am hard on watches :oops: ). it is waterproof. since i do not have to open it up to change the battery, it will always be waterproof. :D

Ditto. Only take it off when I get home from work, errands, or just out. :) But I don't wear one when going to the beach, pool, or anything that will ruin it.

Why does she need a watch, is the clock on the stove broken?

I don't think I'd be much help on this one. I've never paid over $150 for a watch and I wear the hell out of 'em. It has to go with me in the shower, in the pool, diving, motorcycle riding, fishing/boating,... drinkin' ;), etc... and I don't like girlie/feminine looking watches either, I like silver, with a wide band. My Kenneth Cole has been able to stand up to all of the above. 8)

I ended up buying a Seiko watch at Costco. Decent price, fairly confident that it's not a fake and she can take it back if it's not what she wants.

I don't think they do the sizing, so that still has to be dealt with.
