my wife would not wear her DJ...
after getting her a rose gold DJ for our 10th anniversary, she seemed reluctant to wear it because there was "no occasion that called for this dressy piece".
 i guess i can understand it since we are quite informal people and seldom attend dinners or formal functions. so i got her a classic Explorer...something informal, inconspicious and tough enough to match our lifestyle (and something that I could wear too)!  here are some shots of my wife wearing the Explorer...talk about women who wears men's Rolex! she loves it  and i'm a happy camper...

Great! The explorer looks fantastic on her wrist.
Now send me the DJ - my wife needs another one to rotate!

No offense but I think it looks just a little too big for her wrist size. But if she likes it, whatever!

 it's 'big' for her wrist but not 'too big' for her wrist. usually we tend to accept (and even prefer) watches that're slightly bigger over a piece that's smaller. all boils down to personal taste, and that's what makes watches so interesting! just enjoy it for what it is!

SUB Big watches are in style now.. besides it's not that big at all .. I think it looks great on her wrist.. we men wear extra big watches all the time .. Example Panerai 44mm woman usually get the panerai 40mm , at least the ones I know. Like I said big watches are in style thats why there is a new DJ II at 41mm, Good choice
