Your Significant Other and Watches
I’ve had a lot of cool watches over the years - SD4K, Pepsi, Explorer II, but my wife’s favorite by far was the Air-King. I really liked the Air-King too but certainly not my favorite. She thinks my Explorer is super boring by comparison.
I’m curious which watch in your collection is your significant other’s favorite? Include some pictures please as they always make threads more enjoyable. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

This one is by far my SO’s favorite! She has been eyeing it in case I ever get tired of it

My wife likes DJ’s, she has a TT and has her eyes set on a SS version to use as her daily watch, she also tries to pick my watches but our tastes differ, thankfully.

She really likes my 116613LB too and we could share it via the Glidelock. She rocks a bigger watch well. I keep forgetting to wear it when we are out and about together. Can't think why. |

my wife could care less about my watches (or hers for that matter). if forced to choose, she'd probably pick my sub since she favors the clean look of black and steel.

My wife thinks that every Rolex that I have is ugly … except this one…

My wife has two Tudors--BB58 and Ranger. Of my Rolex she likes my BLNR the most. Proud military wife she loves the bezel colors, history of the Rolex GMT and jubilee bracelet.

The day this arrived in 2000, we met up at a coffee shop in the afternoon and when she spied it on my wrist, her eyes watered a bit. My YG President had been destroyed in a motorcycle accident and she helped me pick this as a replacement.

Your Significant Other and Watches
My wife thinks that all of my watches are the same. She keeps telling me to buy an Octo Finissimo because she loves the design.
She may have a point. I tend to favor round, black sport watches. She has a Cartier Pasha, a Tank, and a silver dial Datejust. Her little collection is probably more visually interesting than mine. Of all my watches, she likes my Aqua Terra the most. |

My wife likes this one so much, she has often tried to "borrow" it for herself!

I’m actually envious of the newest one in her collection:

That’s exactly what my wife wears. Bought her a Lady Datejust for her 40th, but a few years ago we spotted the Air King at a good price and now the smaller one never gets worn. |

She loved my white Daytona so I sold it. I don't play into her head games.

This is my wife's favorite. Every time I ask her what watch go's with what I picked out to wear she always picks the CHNR.

Husband tries to glidelock his way into wearing my 126655 every few months before admitting it is slightly too tight for him. Keep telling him the white gold version would be perfect for him.
