My wife likes to wear my Daytona from time to time, I have small wrists so it fits her well. I don't mind at all, I just make her TAKE CARE of it!!!

Nope. She has her own watches. My speedy on a NATO is the only one she steals from time to time.

Same. She leaves the Hesalite Speedy, but she wears my Aventurine on crocodile strap. I don't mind at all, I'm happy she's somewhat interested in my hobby.

Rarely.

She's worn one once or twice on vacation...after I made a purchase!!!

Other than that not very often.

Mine does. All the time, and she doesn't ask...she seems to have a preference to the speedy pro and the milgauss GV.
I like to wear my watches snug on my 6 1/2 inch wrist and she likes them a little loose. So the easy link on the GMT IIc and the GV seems to lean to her favour.
