I like them all, but...

which one you think I should get for my wife? These years I think I have bought too many watches for myself, this year I really want to buy one for her, I do not want to ask her. So please give me your vote. Thanks.

The FIRST one!

My wife has already added the first to her "must have" list.... So much for me getting a GV Milgauss before she gets another. GRRRRR!

I said it on another thread, I hope nobody likes that one, this way I can swoop in and get it for a discount! lol.

It's so different for Rolex, but not over the top like some of the jeweled bezels IMO.

If she likes 2 tones, 1st one. If she likes SS, definitely the second one. For my wife, I would go for the 2nd one.

Definitely the first watch in the pics. The color combination is right on. My second choice would be the third watch. I would think that she wants to see them so she can decide what she really wants.

We tried to give our best guess on this thread.
It is a stunning watch.

I like the 3rd one but, for the love of my life, would prefer her wearing a 34 mm instead of 31 mm. I'm so excited for you and your wife. I still remember the day I gave my wife a Rolex. She was ecstatically happy.

I'm no woman, but I gotta admit, I love the first one. However, in the case your wife is under 25, then probably the second option would be more "suitable". Sorry for being a bit ageish.

Definitely the first one!!! I do like the pink floral one with diamond bezel that is out--my wife tried it on last week.

Of those three, the first one. But imho a SS DJ with fluted WG bezel and diamonds on the dial looks best of all...




Cheers

My wife was drooling over the first one the other day. She wears a 31mm and absolutely loves it.

I would say #1. It has a great look that would go with most anything.

It really depends on her personality. What's her style? I prefer all stainless or all gold as opposed to TT, and I'm not crazy about color of the dial in the first photo, but that's me. I also think diamond bezels are a bit over the top as in photo #3. I do like the bezel in photo #1 though.
