Though some might find the brand a bit expensive than other brands. But Timex watches are worth the price. You can find an excellent collection of Timex watches at the nearest Kamal Store around you or visit their website. Do a thorough search on "<a href="https://kamalwatch.com/brand/timex.html" rel="nofollow">Timex watch for men price</a>" and buy one from the Kamal Watch store at your desired budget. <br />Nimesh Mehtahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06904452557255571333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-63679338650260393632014-01-31T05:12:52.815-05:002014-01-31T05:12:52.815-05:00I didn't know that this model was created for ...I didn't know that this model was created for J.Crew ;)Natasza Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10386490651354792618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-6286038221613243092009-07-09T14:20:34.206-04:002009-07-09T14:20:34.206-04:00Jumping in here really late, but anyway, I bought ...Jumping in here really late, but anyway, I bought a very similar version of the J. Crew Timex for $25 in an Army base uniform retail shop (an AAFEES store, where active duty soldiers buy their uniforms, not an army surplus store). The difference as far as I can tell is that the $25 watch is not distressed and has slightly different hands. That's all. The J. Crew watch is ridiculously overpriced.Gary K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06606708048670269926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-10882031135841715632008-10-17T23:21:00.000-04:002008-10-17T23:21:00.000-04:00Nice watch! the simple vintage design and the nat...Nice watch! the simple vintage design and the nato strap- awesome.

I also got the city-fit stretch chino café capri in black (89706), the Marcella silk blouse in moss (95697) and the Baird McNutt linen jacket in yellow (93765). I will have all colors in the Baird McNutt. Not sure that's something to divulge, but the cut of it is so great for me. Also -- was enabled by the fact that I saw it on a Today show reporter in yellow. Had to have! I'm gushing. Excited about my new order. Hopefully it will come next week when DH is out of town. <BR/><BR/>My CS was Adelaide and she was sooooo fabulous!

It is not lined and I will wear a slip underneath it. It isn't totally see-through. The fit was pretty TTS, I ordered a 4. It fits slim thru the thighs, but overall its a cute dress for $40! (I got it with the 20% off.) It will look cute with a cardigan. I'm sure the darker colors are not as sheer.

I missed on the Oatmeal option and almost missed this one. It came out and was sold out in less then a week. I really liked the look of it and although it is pricey, I convinced myself it would be a great investment piece.:) By the time I was ready to purchase, only size 6 was in stock, so I ordered it and it came yesterday. Imagine my excitement!<BR/>Presentation- great!: came in box, neatly wrapped , with satin bow on top, garment bag inside.<BR/><BR/>Fit: I am weird with dresses, go from 4 to 6 depending on the bust cut. In this type of style ( sheath) , I am usually 6. Fit was good on the bust, but too bulky on the waist area and weirdly pouched on a back. Almost looked like I had a padding on the bum ( fabric was sticking out stiffly from behind despite my numerous attempts at smoothing)<BR/><BR/>Fabric: that what's killed the joy for me! Material is stiff and unbearably itchy. It is fully lined, but still touches the skin on the shoulders and at the neckline. I am not sensitive type, at all. I wear wool, cashmere, anything- no problems. This one I could not tolerate though. Fabric weave also was on a rougher side, I expected intricate weave, instead it was losely woven and not as pretty as in the picture.<BR/><BR/>Unfortunately, this dress is going back. After so much trouble of getting it. Oh, well!Slastenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11977562748740305040noreply@blogger.com
