slay Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 OK, I have a serious problem. I dont know what to get my g/f for her birthday. I always thought I'd get her a nice PP24 (http://perfect-clones.com/pp01005-ladies-hours-double-diamonds-black-swiss-quartz-p-1576.html <- Rivers version is BETTER than Josh's and closer to the gen,but I dont have the link on hand right now, so this will do!) from river and maybe a tiffany bracelet. But now I think of a trip of Paris being a better alternative! She loves Disney stuff, and Disney land, so I thought I could finance us a trip to paris&disney world. That way I might also be able to have a beer with pug or a cohiba with ryyannon (my treat lol). But thats not really the point. The point is, while being very very nice, the PP24 is a just a replica. My stomach tells me not to get her a replica. In the end, a rep is a rep, a knock off, not the real deal and a helluvalot cheaper. Imagine your dad get's you a fake rolex for your harvard MBA! How would you feel? How would your dad feel? On the other hand, I really like the PP24 lol and I'd like it even more on her wrist So, one week Paris including a trip to Disney Land, or the PP24? Cant do both, as I'm already plaing a trip to NYC for New Years for the both of us.
lionsandtigers Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 paris bro, unless of course she's a rep lover ps, send me a pm when you're here (nyc) we'll compare watches and get drunk
slay Posted September 13, 2006 Author Report Posted September 13, 2006 (edited) I will, if I manage to find us a cheap hotel or hostel and btw shes not really "in" to watches. she currently wears a fossil. the kind almost every girl over here wears! Edited September 13, 2006 by slay
lionsandtigers Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 new york, cheap???? never heard of such things....
Linder Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 Get her the watch; that is enough for a gf. Save Paris for if she ever becomes your wife.
Linder Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 Seriously, it is just a birthday, not a Harvard MBA. Besides, how would your future wife feel if she found out you took a gf to Paris?
sailadams Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 Ever take a lady to Paris? Apparently not, otherwise no question here. Go to Paris. Oh, but forget the Disneywoos. That's what Anaheim and Orlando are for. Sheesh.
ubiquitous Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 Paris. For sure. You can get her a PP24 rep anytime.
jfreeman420 Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 (edited) $300 watch VS $3000 vacation? Hmmmmmm........... Get her the rep and you a genuine pre owned sub. Everybody's happy and you get to spend your money. Edited September 13, 2006 by jfreeman420
rocket754 Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 If you don't take her to Paris you will be banned from this forum...
SubFrog Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 If you take her to Paris now...she'll want Rome, Prague, and Spain when your married. Get her the rep...because when she falls in love with it, you can get her the gen when you're married. Start off slow, brother!

g8rally Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 What he said! Forget Paris and take her to Prague - much more atmosphere and cheaper too !! G
KB Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 I tend to agree here unless you are absolutely sure this is the girl who you are going to spend the rest of your life with, save Paris for your wife. Ken
r11co Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 Go to Paris, but forget Disneyland. That is like going to Italy and then eating at McDonalds.
tonton2000 Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 Paris is WAY expensive! Be warned! It might be better to go somewhere just as nice, but easier on the pocket. I've made the mistake before of going all out on a partners b-day, and the inevitable happens.....the next b-day you're expected to top the last one! If you can afford to do bigger and grander things as time goes by, then by all means go, but would you prefer to go there for a b-day, or a wedding anniversary?
t Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 100% PARIS (Slay, du weisst doch wie unsere Frauen sind. Ein Replica bleibt für sie ein Replica. Die finden ne 250euro D&G Uhr -die von der Verabreitung nur 30euro wert ist- besser als ein SUPER Replica mit wesentlich besserer Quali. Einfach nur weil es ein Nachbau ist)
jonthebhoy Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 Instead of giving her one........ ........give her them both! JTB
dcrooz Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 Instead of giving her one........ ........give her them both! JTB nah, just give her one...
r11co Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 Instead of giving her one........ ........give her them both! Trust you to lower the tone. Paris is WAY expensive! Be warned! It might be better to go somewhere just as nice, but easier on the pocket. <snip> If you can afford to do bigger and grander things as time goes by, then by all means go, but would you prefer to go there for a b-day, or a wedding anniversary? We did Paris AND Monaco this year. (where's the 'skint' smiley...?)
jonthebhoy Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 Trust you to lower the tone. We did Paris AND Monaco this year. (where's the 'skint' smiley...?) My advice was, as ever, well intended. I was merely suggesting that it would be a wonderful gesture and affirmation of his love for her, were he to bestow upon her both presents. You my young man have a mucky mind! JTB
Pugwash Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 That way I might also be able to have a beer with pug or a cohiba with ryyannon (my treat lol). I'm going to be biased and suggest Paris. I'd be able to find some time to show you around, probably. Definitely beer, though. ps. I took Mrs Pugwash on a trip to Paris 7 years ago. We stayed.
Chronus Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 tonton is right about having to top the previous birthday... keep that in mind. Also, look at your finances, Paris will cost a lot more. If you are already both going NYC she won't mind getting the watch, after all NYE is not that long from now! Having said that, if it were me, and she were the girl of my dreams, the one I want to be with, I'd probably go to Paris
NRG Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 (edited) Dude, is She a 'keeper'? Yes = take her to Paris and buy her something real! What's she gonna feel about a you giving her a fake watch If no, then why are you buying her something! Edited September 13, 2006 by NRG
