Hypothetically, if I were going to get FH a Rolex as a wedding gift....where would be a good place to buy it from?

Any jeweler...
I went to Good Old Gold in Massapequa when I was tossing around the idea for my FH. I nixed it by the way.

No specific reason...
Two for me:
The one I liked was $7K.![]()
And the more I thought about it, the more it seemed to be an older gift - like something that should be worked for... Something to be rewarded with when you've succeeded - i.e. making $150,000 by the time you're 35, getting partner in your law firm, etc.

Ask around, your friends may have a jeweler that they trust., you can use. I went to my sister's guy who is now my guy lol.....
I mean you can go to Torneau and go bankrupt lol!

My BFF is a gemologist, and she hooked up FH with her first boss, who is a diamond wholesaler. That's how FH got my engagement ring, and we're considering that route for our wedding bands too. But, he is a diamond wholesaler so somehow I don't think he can hook it up for a rolex.![]()

Disclaimer: I'm totally not suggesting this for your wedding gift...but just some info
My ghettoness is going to shine through here, my friend got a ridiculous TAG Heuer watch on Canal Street. Granted I felt like we were going to get killed or sold into some kind of sex trade, but it was an awesome watch.

I just pictured Ru Paul standing in front of your FH saying 'giiiiiiirl, you betta work!' and dangling the Rolex in his face. LOL![]()

And yes, $7,000 would make this impossible for me as well.

Definitely go to Good Old Gold in Massapequa! They are SO helpful there and very nice... They also had ones in the $3K range, but I didn't want to buy it just to buy it, you know? So I'm going to save and hopefully buy him a nice one for our 10 yr anniversary...
Just another thought too - Cartier has nice watches in the $1500-2000 range too. You still get a name brand with them too.

Thanks for the advice![]()
Did you end up deciding on a gift for your FH?
And also, I read your post in one of the other threads about people giving you a hard time about getting married on a Friday. I'm just waiting for the same thing. Too bad our RH is AWESOME and anyone who doesn't come b/c it's a Friday is a JERK!
and did you book a florist yet?
