40 just doesn't seem large on my 6.5 in. wrist. It is about the perfect size. Congratulations on the new watch!!! Nicely done!!!

What's the most sought after vintage Rolex ?
Daytona. What's the size 37mm.
If you have no intention of flipping, pick the one that looks best to you and forget everyone else.

I may be biased since I own a YM 40mm but you can't go wrong with it! Even if you change your mind and end up re-selling you will still get a bang for your buck imo.

No doubt on the resale.40 is the way to go. OP should check the resale on the DD36.

No offence intended, but that seems like a very expensive purchase given the circumstances described. Perhaps the money might be better spent on a piece of jewelry she really covets?

I may be biased but I say go with the YM 40. It is such a good watch like dr35mm said you will never look back.
