I am getting married in a couple of months time and although I am more than happy wearing my Sub on the big day, my future wife (man, that sounds weird

) doesn't feel that her Gucci is suitable to be married in as it has a black face and black leather strap.

So what would you guys recommend would look good with her wedding dress. Not recessarily a Rolex, as I think it might be too chunky, but maybe something a little elegant.

Thanks guys

What about one of those mini G gucci watches small & pretty little diamonds around the edges mother of pearl dial to match the gown etc approx 1500-2200 ozzie dollars i have seen them range between, not that i have seriously hunted them. my Fiancee has one i think i paid 1650 or so. GD luck

Monkeyman · 7 May 2008, 09:34 PM

or a nice air king.. they can look hot on girls!!

SPACE-DWELLER · 7 May 2008, 09:37 PM

Congrats on getting married!

Get her this watch.

She'd probably find it a tad too big, but I will be happy to take the watch at half the price you paid should she not like it.

Thanks, it all seems to be getting "real" now with being so close.

Is that the one with the face in the shape of a G? Thats spooky you should mention that as I was looking at one of those on Saturday pretty much idential as what you have described with the diamonds around the G and a pearl face. That is a possible contender. Cheers

Thanks Bo

I'm not too sure she'd go for the Sea Dweller, but I'd happily wear it

No recommendations about a watch for the future wife but my advice for you? Compromise, compromise, compromise.

Congrats on the wedding.

1500 bucks or so.
Why is she wearing a watch on that day anyway? If she's checking the time during the ceremony or reception I'd say that's a bad sign.

Howie · 7 May 2008, 10:43 PM

I always liked the Reverso Duetto on women. Maybe it's the petite rectangular shape, or the glistening diamonds, or the fact that they are 2-faced!

Mmmmm feel the Tag may be a little sporty for a wedding.

Told her she didn't need to wear a watch too, that just a bracelet would do, but she's mentioned a watch a few times now.

Found this Pearlmaster.

Think that might do the job, but yet to find a cost for it

Trurolexer · 7 May 2008, 11:47 PM

Explorer 1 or Perpetual Date.

Wow, that does look quite nice. I think I like the bracelet the best. Nice detail and all WG.

Plan on it retailing around $37K and available "grey" for $27K. Pretty pricey.

Woah, I think it might be the Gucci, unless anyone knows anywhere I can get a good fake

Especially as I can't get an Anniversary Sub, Daytona, Milgauss or the BMW I've got my eye on just now, I doubt I'll be getting her the Pearlmaster

DSJ · 8 May 2008, 12:58 AM

No watch for her, IMO.

jdc · 8 May 2008, 01:16 AM

Congratulations

How about this one? £450

Now that looks nice, although never heard of Christopher Ward.
