Brad, did you really sell your Daytona? I've experienced a slight change in your discussions and tone regarding the timepiece. That may be the root of it? You sold your white Daytona 500ln? It was nice on you and I thought you were a lifer with that watch.

I did in anticipation of getting the meteorite white gold Daytona! Still love the Daytona just think the market price has exceeded its intrinsic value for me so I'm trading it for a PM version.

My wife has a great collection in her own right. RG AP 15202, a malachite day date, a bamford green Milgauss, a gold Cartier roadster, a 36mm factory diamond bezel datejust, a white gold diamond bezel, diamond MOP dial masterpiece, Bulgari serpenti, and numerous others..,she’s good on her own.

This is my wife's favorite. Every time I ask her what watch go's with what I picked out to wear she always picks the CHNR.

Husband tries to glidelock his way into wearing my 126655 every few months before admitting it is slightly too tight for him. Keep telling him the white gold version would be perfect for him.

If I went PM, WG YM would probably be the way I'd go. Does it wear like a 42mm? I don't think I have the wrist for it.

My wife prefers my 5 digit polar over all others. She says it's because it looks like (nothing like, actually) her ladies DJ.

She's only into Rolex to flex to her girlfriends

Well, can't fault her there. It's a good flex. Funny she likes the polar. That what my husband decided his next is over the WG YM!

He has never gotten the chance to try on the 41, so can't say for sure on the fit. However, the 40 fits me great and I have a tiny wrist that can't support the GMT- I feel YM wears smaller rather than larger.

My spouse could care less and can't tell any of my watches apart from one another. The only one she notices is when I wear the Seiko Tuna.

My wife picked out the Air King in the store. She says she prefers it over my white Daytona

She's never expressed an opinion towards a favorite; I'm pretty certain it's one of these!!!

My wife likes shiny watches and is good with any watch in the collection as long as it shines.

My wife prefers the Aqua Terra over the rest of the fleet. Also, she likes it more on the bracelet as opposed to the rubber strap

That’s the one my girlfriend likes the most of all the watches I’ve had…she almost always prefers Omegas, the AT and Speedy specifically because “ I can’t stand that bubble.”

I finally got my wife to try on my sub41.. glide lock in all the way and would still need a link or two out.
She loves it, and asked why they don’t make a ladies version.

The Warden doesn't care about any of my collections as long as the bills are paid. She has a TT 31MM Datejust which I have to set for her everytime she wears it.
