Hello,
I have a female friend (not my girlfriend), and she has a birthday soon. She is my best friend, we are very close, but strictly as friends (so far at least) (we are also both strongly involved in some community work together). As my present, I would like to give her something significant and worthy (not a gift certificate, that's too formal), but at the same time something which will not be interpreted in the wrong way (as in more-than-friends). I was thinking about a watch (as in wrist watch - she hasn't one, but uses her mobile to check time), of about 150$ - would this be appropriate?
I will be very grateful for your suggestions/criticisms!
