Resolved Question

Show me another

Our 10 year wedding anniversary is coming up and I was thinking of getting a pair of His & Hers watches for me and my husband. Is this a good anniversary gift?

I looked into some His and Hers watches in some online jewelry catalogs and I think they are so charming. The watch my husband wears now is getting really old and he has already had to get it fixed a few times, so he could really use a new watch.

His & Hers watches are an amazing anniversary gift! Your relationship has lasted for ten years and you both deserve to pamper yourselves with a special piece of jewelry. I think His & Hers watches are such a wonderful idea because they are like an extension of the wedding rings you exchanged the day you were married. They are another piece of matching jewelry that binds you and symbolizes your love for each other. And now, after ten years, you are opting for jewelry that shows that you have stood the test of time – literally! Now that you've chosen the perfect anniversary gift, all you need to do is decide on a look that will work for both you and your husband. It sounds easy enough, but I know it can be quite difficult to find a design that isn't too masculine or feminine. Just because you're married doesn’t necessarily mean you have the same taste in watches and jewelry. For instance, diamond watches could be a great option if you're both interested in an elegant, glamorous look. If you and your husband like modern designs then maybe matching titanium watches would be right for you. If you're both into a more classic, subtle style then perhaps you might want to consider gold-plated steel watches. Remember, although there are plenty of options out there for His & Hers watches, if you can't seem to find what you're looking for, you can always get the watches custom made. Custom jewelry is designed to meet your specific needs so this is a perfect solution if you know exactly what kind of watches you want but you just can't seem to find them. Other than the watch design, there are some other things to consider, like quartz movement or automatic movement, water resistance or not, battery-less watches or battery-powered watches, and so on. But I'm guessing that once you choose the design of your His & Hers watches the rest will be a piece of cake.

I really like the His & Hers watches idea, but I'd like to add a little something to it. Since the tenth wedding anniversary is a diamond or tin anniversary, then maybe you would like to consider incorporating these traditional gifts into the watches. You could get diamond encrusted watches for example or have a tiny piece of tin placed strategically in the back of the watches with an engraved message that holds special meaning for the both of you. Whatever you decide, I'm sure it will be brilliant. Congratulations on ten years of marriage together! These days, marriages that last as long as that are getting to be almost as rare as diamonds…
