There is already one thread on the watch. I don't think that the people who ordered it, received it yet!

Check out the SB watch on shq. Offered with a black leather or beautiful tiffany blue leather band. It's gorgeous!

Hi Chi - thank you for bringing this to our attention. Frankly I personally prefer Carolyn's because of her beautiful silver, the design and the deep blue of her stones. For those that have purchased one from the shop enjoy! Glad that we have so many choices.

Yes! Iike both of them, lol. But going to pass. I did buy an initial CP MOP pendant, thanks to free shipping :-). And I'm also waiting for the july AW shows. Cheers!

Quite a difference in price too. It would be easy to change the strap on the CP watch. You can get about any color on eBay.

Yes, but there are 18 SB stones on the gems en vogue vs 4 on the CP, so the reason for the price difference. Not sure how well priced it is, but seems to make sense, especially if the stones are good quality. Two very different styles. CP sterling is quite beautiful and good quality, but I also like the style of the gems en vogue dial with stones around it. Good point to check for alternate bands. Gives the watch a different look.

If you think those 14 tiny SB stone have much monetary value, you've been drinking too much of the Kool-Aid. There is a lot more detail and work on the Gems en Vogue watch but I liked the silver presence on CP's watch.

Really? Those stones on the gems en vogue look bigger than the ones on tbe CP watch. I didn't see dimensions-what are the sizes for both watches? Yes, if you want sterling, CP watch is the better option. Two different styles. Neither is "better" than the other. Just a personal choice!

Looks like you're the one indulging in the kool-aid. CP didn't even provide the SB stone dimensions in the product description. That's odd, huh? That typically means it's small. How can you accurately compare them? The gems en vogue do provide the SB stone dimensions, and in looking at comparison pictures, it looks like the CP stones are smaller, and there are only 4 stones. Monetary value? Without all the necessary details, you can't appropriately determine monetary detail. Just your personal judgment, your brand of kool-aid, and your crabbiness.

A 4mm stone which is on the Gems en Vogue watch is tiny, tiny. Chuck's small Kelly Anne studs are 6mm. The whole case of that watch is only 32mm which is on the small side. I saw the CP watch presented and while I don't know exactly how large the stones are, they are considerably larger than 4mm. Very small turquoise stones have little monetary value. The silver is worth a lot more than the stones. It is my prerogative to be crabby if I so desire. Feel free to put me on "ignore".
