Tough and Feminine

I’ve worn my fair share of cheap watches throughout my life. In high school, I loved going to some of the shadier parts of DC and buying knock-off watches from the street vendors. They were in my budget, looked pretty good, and tended to work for long enough to make me happy. I think I still have some of them in an old jewelry box. They still look just a cool, but I am pretty sure all of them have long since stopped functioning.
I’m older now, and more into quality. When I buy something, I want it to last a long time. My mother bought me the most amazing necklace watch thing I can wear why teaching. It’s fun and glittery and enclosed inside of a sparkly moon face. I love it.
However, I also want a wristwatch. And, I want one that is absolutely going to be able to take a beating. I will be wearing it in the classroom and I cannot be bothered with worrying about bumps and spills. It needs to tough it out; just like everything else I will take into the classroom with me.
Citizen Watch has a new campaign featuring their very own Unstoppable Ambassadors. They are men and women from the world of athletics and I just happen to adore the watch that is in the ads with Nicole Vaidisova. It’s the Palidora Diamond. They had me at the fact that it never needs a battery and that it looks more feminine that I ever imagined something that tough could look. And, as far as good watches go, it’s not actually unaffordable.
