Time Ain't On My Side
I bought a lovely watch online through Urban Outfitters. Unfortunately, it arrived and apparently I have the wrist span of a child! I mean, I knew my wrists were small but this is just ridiculous. If I keep it I will have to remove five links. Or wear it as an anklet. I don't know, new trend?

Nice watch! I love accesories from Urban Outfitters!
Alice:)
My cousin gave me a lovely Swatch watch and it happened the same to me. I have to adjusted it, and I'll need to remove 4-5 links!
The color is too nice and vibrant to return! You must remove a few links and keep this beautiful piece! :-)
that's a funky watch! i just live the color and say: keep it! maybe they sell it in the biggest size possible because it's way easier to remove links than to add some? still, i don't get it.
Gorgeous watch, love the colour. but yes the size is ridiculous!
I think you could start a trend wearing it on your ankle tho! Just a little awkward when you want to read the time! ;)
I love it! It's so huge and colorful, I kind of want to eat it with a milkshake!
I've been trying to decide if I wanted to post this week about watches or bubble gum :D This has helped :D
in this book called 'How I Paid For College,' by Marc Acito, the two main characters wear their watches on their ankles.
One of them is Really fat though, so she must have had a massive watch.
It's a real cute watch though. Looks good on the ankle.
Not if you want to wear boots though...
I think one of the partygoers in "Breakfast at Tiffany's" wore a watch on her ankle...
I have this memory of Paul crawling through the crowd and checking the time.
I'm loving it on the ankle!
My friend bought an UO watch - they definitely come up big because her wrists are particularly normal but it's a few links too big... not as much as yours thought.
Aw man! That watch is kick ass. Too bad it is MONSTROUS!
I say get some links removed. It's well worth it.
haha thats hilarious
it looks huge but the color is cool.
i would say get some links removed. i've had links added to necklaces (i like them long) and it wasnt too expensive so I dont think it would be pricey to do the opposite.
I always have this problem, I have to take watches to have links cut out.
It means I can never have a swatch
:(
I too have a tiny wrist which makes purchasing such items online a no no for me, but I love the watch. Depending on the cost to get the links removed (if it's too expensive it might not be worth it) I think you should do it.
I like these colors :) Make me wanna smile :D
I love the watch. My wrists are ridiculously tiny as well. I love the watch as anklet idea. There's a series in the UK called "Skins," and the character Cassie does exactly that.
there's a clip of it here: http://youtube.com/watch?v=HI4jj-vPkuA
It's great especially with the pink nails :D
Good grief! Well, any jeweler can easily fix that.
Pulling your ankle up would be an awesome way to check the time!
haha, I love this post.
i agree with everyone else's comments.
wear it on your ankle!
see how many people start wearing watches on their ankle the next day ;]
was it a men's watch? i have teeny tiny wrists too!!
yeah most watches with links are pretty big, so that they can fit a variety of folks sort of one size fits all deal. i have a few and i always have to have the links taken out. any jeweler can fix that for you. easy peasy.
Keep it, the colour is fantastic!!!
that's a beautiful watch!! that looks hilarious though on your small wrists :|
hmm....i wouldn't advise the anklet thing...haha, unless that was sarcasm?
The watch is probably men's . I ordered a watch from the there wa on the woman's portion of their site and when it arrived it was clearly amen's watch which appears to be the case with yours also
I have the same problem too, that's why I never wear wrist bands or bangles as they just go all over the place!
You DO have tiny wrists! :O
Cute watch though.. And I think it would be really funky to wear it as an anklet haha, I'm sure people would follow it.
haha, i mean it is not only a little too big! it seem like it is made for giants :-)
i have tiny girl wrists too so i feel your pain!
i say remove the links and wear it, it's an awesome watch ;-)
wear it on the ankle! seriously! theres a part in bfast @ Tiffany's , the party scene and a woman has one on her ankle - you should do it :)
LOL, that trend would be crazy.
