Left one, oyster bracelet always the preferred one over jubilee. Diamond dial adds to the desirability.

What role will she be playing wearing one of these?

I prefer the Jubilee bracelet, smooth bezel and roman dial. Looks more feminine. My wife wears a 36 mm Date Just with the Pink dial and smooth bezel and it looks great so I might be partial to that model. Both are great watches so you can not go wrong.

I agree. The 36mm still wears large on a woman while the 41mm is just too big and is more likely to go out of style in the future. My wife went with the 31mm over the 36mm and it looks great!

Left, though wish it had baguettes for 6 and 9 as it makes the dial easier to read imho.

Thanks for your comments, seems to be the 36 is the more popular, it’s always nice to see what others think as it helps in making a choice
