A few months ago the band on my treasured Gucci watch broke. I went to a couple of jewelers and watch store hoping that it could be fixed – but to no avail. So, where does one go when you want something and you can no longer find it? E-bay!!
While we were in California for Thanksgiving, I mentioned to Jamie that I would love her help in finding me a Gucci watch that I could bid on and hopefully buy. With her expertise, she found a few choices and we made a bid. It was at $65.00 so we put that we would go as high as $85.00. There was only 2 more hours for the bid to end. That evening while we were shopping, she received a notification that we had just bought a watch for $65.00! I was thrilled.
The watch has a significance to it. The original one bought at ZCMI for $90.00. It was my first big purchase and my symbol of independence from a sad part in the journey of my life. So, thank you Jamie for taking the time from a very busy week to help me locate, bid and finally buy. I LOVE this watch. I never look at it without remembering the significance of it for me.
