Tell her I said it doesn't look right on a woman's wrist. If that isn't enough be careful which watch you choose next, she may like that as well.

Okay, now I don't feel so bad as my wife pinched my Bark-President that's on my avatar during the summer and hasn't given it back!

Tell her she has to join TRF if she is going to wear a Rolex. We can use more female members.

And, BtW, welcome to the My Wife Stole My Rolex club.

Her nail color is ugly, but I guess it matches the watch

That's the problem with the glide lock bracelet, it allows to much adjustability in size. Wife steals my LvC way too often.

The Sub looks great on your wife. (I happen to like the color of her nail polish.) Now you have an excuse to get one for yourself.

Congratulations! I'll venture to say it probably looks sexier on her than on you :) My wife stole my Sub as soon as I brought home my DSSD. She's been trying to take my BLNR but that one hasn't left my wrist in awhile.
Enjoy the Sub! Both of you.

thanks everyone!! Very funny comments. I shouldn't be shocked or surprised nearly everyone is advising getting another one. Luckily, she gave it back. I think she felt bad for me. Anyway, we allready started shopping for her.

Normally women could prefer lady Datejust, you may need to buy another one

It is no wonder. I think that you should buy another one for yourself.

I thought this was going to be a US customs related thread. Bad news is you have a better chance of getting a Rolex back from customs than your wife.
