I'm assuming the gifts are for your girl and not yourself, right?
If so... I think she sounds a little ungrateful. In this Polish girl's opinion watches are a very considerate gift. Especially if it's a Rolex! Lol.

Btw, a nice perfume is a good choice too.

A sincere thanks PF, for putting up with me FIVE terrific years, muah!

Too many superstitions. Be sure not to buy her a black cat either. She wouldn't want to have any bad luck. HA!

I got told off once for buying a dozen red roses for a Polish Lady. Apparently even numbers are for funerals and I should have bought an odd number of roses. Actually i got told off twice for it - the wife wasn't too impressed that I had been buying flowers for ladies, even ones recovering from an operation.

My heart nearly stopped when you mentioned it was bad luck to buy a polish girl a watch!!

I bought one for a polish girl. A DKNY one. I dont want her thinking I am being horrible to her.
Is it bad luck to get a watch? as in polish tradition?

I think if you buy an expensive gift for your girlfriend,it is considered bad luck in polish tradition.
So you 'd better avoid any Mazzerati or CLK.
