Happy Birthday! Think of it this way... you saved yourself a lot of money and aggravation. That's a great present in my book.

Sorry to hear you had to return the watch, but at least you're getting a full refund.

Now, you still have to get yourself a birthday present....

Looks like it's past your birthday on the east cost, so happy belated birthday.

In terms fo your watch issue, enjoy the hunt for another. I actually enjoy researching, learning about and looking for watches. In my case, buying watches is never as interesting as looking for them.

Ones tastes evolve. You are evolving and you will now prefer a non rose gold watch. That is good for you. Enjoy the ride, and as you go you learn many things.
