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.
