W: Good afternoon. Can I help you?
M: Yes please. I’m looking for a watch to give as a birthday gift.
W: Are you looking for a ladies’ watch or a gentlemen’s watch?
M: It’s for my mother, so a mature lady.
W: Very good, sir. Could I ask what the price range is you have in mind?
M: [9] Well, I don’t think I can afford an expensive watch from a famous maker, such as Rolex. Something that combines good quality and reasonable price will be perfect.
W: Well, these are all on sale at the moment, so I think you will find the prices acceptable.
M: [9] In fact, a friend of mine has told me to have a look at your watches on special. He said they were worth the prices.
W: We are honored to hear that. Would you prefer a metal strap to a leather strap?
M: Oh, yes. Leather straps are for young people like myself. [10] Metal straps look more classical. It’s therefore suitable for a middle-aged woman, I think.
W: Many people think so. How about this one, a gold-plated strap?
M: Yes, it’s very nice, but [10] I’d prefer a mechanical watch. You know, one with hands than a digital watch.
W: I see. How about this watch, sir? It comes with either yellow gold plating or white gold plating, it has the date, it is mechanical and, of course, it has hands. This is always a good gift.
M: Yes, I think you are right. [10] It is very nice, especially the one with yellow gold plating. I think she would like a watch that shows the date as well as the time. This one would be just right for her. Is it possible to have something written on the back?
W: [11] Of course, sir, but there will be a small additional cost. What would you like to write?
M: I think “To mum” and then the date beneath.
W: No problem, sir. It’ll be ready the day after tomorrow. If you want us to deliver the watch, please put down your name and address.
M: Good, if you can help send it to my mother directly, it must be a big surprise. Let me give you the address.
