I’m one of those people who feels naked without a watch on. If I forget my watch, I spend all day looking at my wrist and cursing when I’m once again reminded that I’m not wearing my watch. So you can imagine my delight when Gifts Online 4 U contacted me to see if I would be interested in reviewing one of their personalised watches. And the best news? I have one to giveaway to one of my readers too!
Review
Below you will find my thoughts on every aspect of the watch and the ordering process.
The Watch Itself
I almost always go for black when it comes to watches, so I decided it was time for a change and I chose this lovely soft pink watch. I was a little bit worried that the colour would look garish in real life but it doesn’t at all. It’s a lovely shade of pastel pink.
The watch is a good size – big enough to see and small enough to be delicate – and I love how easy the Roman numerals are to see, even if the light is shining on the face.
I am really happy with the watch and have been wearing it constantly since it arrived.
Score: 5/5
The Personal Touch
If you’re looking for engraved gifts for her, then this watch (or any of Gifts Online 4 U’s watches) is a great choice. You can choose to have a personal message engraved on the back of the watch. I chose one of my favourite quotes – Dreams don’t work unless you do”.
Different watches within the range have different character limits, so make sure your message is the right length for the watch you choose. You can also choose from a range of different fonts to make your watch even more unique.
I love the idea of a personalised gift, I think they are a little more special. If I had to pick fault with the watch, I would have liked the engraved message to be cut in a little deeper as you do have to wiggle the watch around a bit to see the message.
Score: 3/5
Ordering and Delivery
The ordering process is really easy. Just choose your product(s) and when you’re ready, go to personalise them. The personalisation form tells you exactly how many characters you get per line so there will be no weird cut offs.
You can opt for UK next day delivery for £5, or you can opt for free UK delivery within two to seven working days.
Ordering was fast and easy and the watch arrived on time.
Score: 5/5
Packaging
The watch is presented in a pretty charcoal grey and black gift box and the watch is well packaged for delivery.
Score: 5/5
Overall Score
I am really happy with my new watch and I have to agree that it would make a lovely gift for a special lady in your life.
Overall score: 18/20

This watch is really pretty and I love that it can be personalized. That makes it great for gifts! I think gift shopping is harder now because everyone has everything so a personalized gift is now my current “go to” gift.
