This is one of the great things my husband bought me. Its a Raymond Weil Diamond watch from Switzerland. I know he paid big bucks for it. See I had a Rolex two tone gold and silver watch many years ago. My ex husband bought it for me as a anniversary gift. Anyhow after we divorced and he broke into our home to take back all the jewlery he gave me..he never got the Rolex because I had been wearing it. Well in any case I suppose it was not meant to be because an ex-boyfriend stole it instead. Well I could never prove it but he was the only one that had been in my house at the time. Anyhow that was years and years ago. I always wanted to get another one but they were always way too expensive. I would walk by the jewlery store and admire them in the windows. Well one day I saw one I had admired and my husband was with me. He didnt show any interest. But I knew one day I would have another. If it was meant to be then it was meant to be. So anyhow one day ...the day we took the kids to ride the train at Ala Moana shopping center, I saw this collection of watches at the expensive jewlery store by Raymond Weil. I just went in to check on the price. OMG they were just a little less expensive than a Rolex. I saw this beautiful diamond watch. I muttered under my breath.."I like this one". My husband said "Yeah right ..maybe when you finish medical school". So we went on our way and I thought to myself ..one day. Well Christmas morning arrived and my children were going ballistic with their presents. There were two boxes to me from my husband. One looked like a ring box and the other looked like a bigger box but maybe a jewlery box of some sort. The watch never entered my mind. Anyhow I opened the bigger box and was stunned to see the watch I was looking at the week before. I know he paid a pretty penny for it. It looks so good on me. Anyhow back to the story. So I was left with the ring box. I opened it and was just floored. The tears started rolling. This is what was in the box. It was a 1.5 total carat weight diamond ring. Its one of those past, present and future diamond anniversary rings. I am so not into jewlery but I always say I like a nice watch and a nice ring. Anyhow I was just floored. See when we got married my husband never was the traditional type. He asked me to marry him at a Waldens book store. No ring ...nothing. I said yes ...but with no ring and really he had no idea that when you ask someone to marry you ..you should have a ring. . We went into Sams club. Yes Sams club the place where you buy groceries and household appliances at. We walked to the jewlery counter and he asked me what I liked. Well my husband is just not the romantic type so I pick a really cheap sapphire ring that broke into pieces about 3 months later. I was with no ring and for my husband that is a big deal. Anyhow so he comes home with a ring one day. Its a 1 carat solitaire on a hawaiian gold band. It was cubic zirconia but he didnt tell me that. Okay before anyone says anything about him being cheap..it wasnt like that. We had car payments and bought a brand new house. We had seven kids between him and I to support.. so anything being a real diamond or not just was not a option. And really I didnt care at that time. Anyhow so I would go to work and for some reason women really seem to care about these things and started comparing rings. It made me feel a lttle embarassed. Not that it wasn't a real diamond or not but maybe it showed that my husband didnt think enough about me. Anyhow thats how I felt after they were comparing rings. It made me feel insecure. I had still loved it and always wore it proudly but in the back of my mind I always felt like the kind of woman men dont give these kind of things to. So he gets me this new one. Its beautiful.Its real diamonds. Its certified and appraised and he wants me now to replace it with my cubic zirconia. I tried to wear it yesterday but it felt weird. I love my CZ ring. He wants the new one on my wedding finger. I want it on the other. Decisions.. Decisions. But he did surprise me thats for sure. I guess I am the kind of woman that get diamonds after all. What a guy.
