Nicer than the Rolex, and she is less likely to get called out on it

This is pure class

Was hoping for someone who had bought a nice one for their wife from a TD to help me out, the longines ides is worth a look though

She loves it

Sadly it looks like my wife being so fussy means none of the suggestions are going to work, she seems to want an unobtainable Omega and Rolex at the same time, she only has small wrists and therefore only like small watches so as nice as the Chanel is, it is just too big

Comes in 33 and 38mm if I remember correctly. I opted for the 33mm, but if your missus likes wearing your subs than the 38mm would suit her fine

Ive seen other sellers with J12's, different prices, hard to say if you get a different watch, the one I ordered was very sufficient, and my missus loves it

Omega ladymatic is the only way to go. 

All the women I know 20-45 wear full size Rolex’s, it’s known as the boyfriend watch. 

Lady Rolex sizes are best left to your gran. 

Also avoid bling, women can spot fake diamonds faster than a pig can find a truffle.

Looked at the gens, there's a pretty good GMT. She usually rocks a Yachtmaster, or my Colamariner these days. 38mm might suffice.

I think I saw men's sizes too, so they probs got a 40mm if that's what she prefers

Did you have to resize the bracelet for your missus? I'm having trouble working out how to do mine (yeah I know, I'm a fucking retard!).

Just happened to be perfect size for my missus, but looks like Captain Reg came to the rescue
