in 2 yrs my 10th year anniversary

i was thinking of getting matching his and hers watches for my babys and my 10th....what kind would you recommend? i don't have a date just, day date etc....and that fluted bezel is kinda snappy....she has a stainless date.....but it would be nice if we both had dress watches....and I've gorged on watches the past 18 months....so I'm on self imposed restriction....

i am thinking of having them engraved.....

thanks

well, i plan lots of stuff out....finances, schedules etc....things don't always go according to plan, actually usually happens way sooner....but i don't think the 10 yr anniv will do that....and its a big deal for my bride and that makes it very important to me.....and i thought the watch thing would be pretty cool......maybe not as dramatic as the billy bob thornton and angeline jolie blood oath/tattoo session.....but you can't 'un-engrave' a rolex very well...... by the way, I'm leaning towards date justs with fluted bezel

Date just his and hers with a smooth bezel. If that is not helpful let us know those restrictions you have imposed so we can better assist

If you want matching watches for the occasion, then I wholeheartedly agree with this - on jubilees! Maybe a pair of 116201's (smooth gold bezel, TT jubilee on a grey dial)!

Or a 116200 (white dial on jubilee) for her and a 116300 (DJII in SS with a smooth bezel and silver dial) for him!

Lovely watches. Classy and timeless.

I would recommend 36 and 39mm Explorer I's. Such great watches that can be worn by women and men alike.
