About 2 weeks ago I handled the small Snowflake after I sort of stumbled upon it.
I was just cruising by the windows hoping to get eyes on a sbgy011 which is sort of stuck in my head these days.

As soon as I saw the little Snowflake in the window it literally blew me away and seemed to tick so many fundamental boxes not to mention price, as I think Quartz is generally well suited to life on a ladies wrist. Especially if only worn intermittently.
The Snowflake is so very different from the 375 that I think you will enjoy the diversity plus it's Titanuim so it will feel entirely different. No body does Titanium like GS

Please let us know how you get on?
A couple of happy snaps would be nice regardless of which way you go
Especially under the Christmas tree

Thanks again for your comments! I am still deciding (have some time until April). Will definitely let you know

We live in So Cal near the beach and she rarely wears any jewelry besides her wedding ring. I’m still glad I got her the GS as it commemorated a special event and I think the snowflake fits her modest but beautiful style perfectly.

As for a recommendation: I’d stay with a classic brand and design. I looked hard at Cartier before I got the GS for her. But she’s just not a Cartier kind of girl. No doubt that they make some beautiful iconic watches. His and her Tanks would be awesome if you can swing it financially and style wise. Depending on your wife I’d consider a Cartier. The GS is beautiful and understated. I think you go with what you think best fits her personality. If it’s GS, his and her Snowflakes is my choice

Good luck!

Hi Wooly! I really appreciate your comments - those are very useful and relevant indeed. Reading your comment I also realised that my wife is probably also not a "Cartier type of a girl", she is not in any 'brands' etc. and GS may fit her style better. I didn't realise this until I read your comment and thank you for this. I can also save a bit on a set of watches (albeit, this was not a goal).

All the best to you and wishing you and your wife many happy years together!

You’re welcome. Best of luck and hope she enjoys what you decide to get her.
