Yes- I have one of those girls who lurves goth & steampunk. She also never asks for much, & it's always off-the-wall, so I'm grasping something she's mentioned as really awesome.
1) where to find in the Mandurah, WA area
2) or ebay AU, in time for Xmas
3) if a chain shop, nothing too $$$
Thank you.

There's a stall at the Fremantle Markets that sells them - around $30 from memory, range of styles, near the Moreish Nuts stall before the fruit and veg section. The Art Bazaar is also on this weekend at Fremantle Arts Centre and there are sure to be stalls that have them too, likely much better quality / hand made.
If you want something a little different and unique you should try Etsy. Just search for Gothic or steampunk and you'll get lots of options. Just check with the seller that it'll get here for Xmas.
This, that or an old jewel pocket watch from eBay, you'd be surprised how cheap þhey are sometimes,
Example buy it now $85

Thanks for the ideas. Freo is a bit too far to get to atm, but maybe Etsy…Just wish I knew the quality was there. Was hoping for something that won't stop ticking either in a month or the first time it's bumped,you know?
Much appreciated!
There's some great one's on eBay
Just as an fyi: I was perusing them on various sites & keep running into either that they stop working within a couple of months or that they look & feel good, yet the maker decided to stamp "made in china" on metal bits which you see…I'm looking for the type you can see into (skeleton?).
I'll keep checking around- thanks everyone!

make sure you buy her a monocle and cigar to go with it
