jkerouac Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 hello as i told i am in a big dilimma,my girlfriend's birthday is coming and i want to make her an suprise(watch suprise).also i don't know which rep watch i have to choose,i like very much the CHANEL CERAMIC SERIES from trusted dealers but i am little bit confused!is there anybody here to help me? This has been discussed in previous threads, so I'll summarize from what I recall and my own impressions. The Chanel is a good option, and you might want to look at the ladies or midsize versions of the Yachtmaster, plus the two-tone Omega Constellation. Also, you might find some of SQL_PL's posts in the photo gallery where his girlfriends model some of his Pans and IWCs. Large watches can look great on a lady's wrist.... if she would feel comfortable doing so. Perhaps ask her if she's like to wear one of your watches some time and see how she reacts. One other thing. How does she feel about watches in general and reps in particular? My wife has four watches, two of which are reps. She has firmly stated several times that she does not want another watch. Otherwise I think the Chanel Ceramic would make a great addition to her collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sssurfer Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 Chanel Ceramic Black is a great choice! From Andrew, I also like the Diamonds (Baguette) White. Actually, on ladies, I personally prefer 'lighter' (brighter) watches -- but you are right on your choice for black Ceramic... curiously enough, Ceramics do not look so good in white. Some time ago I gave my wife a watch that still looks gorgeous on her evening dressing, and that still is the one I love the most among her watches. It resembles the Diamonds Baguette White a little, but I find it a little less obtrusive. If you are interested, you may have a look at it here. (Unsure on whether it is still available, though).

By-Tor Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 Maybe TAG isn't your girlfriend's style but I reviewed TAG Ladies model just a week ago: http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=14263 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hambone Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 Cartier has a nice line of womens watches that are available in rep, though they are small and rather dainty, You might consider a smaller mens Cartier like the Tank or Roadster. They do look quite elegant on a lady. Good luck in your quest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice watch sssurfer! I like the white ceramic for the Chanel J12, it's just different and stands out more. There is also a version with a "diamond" bezel. The black version is cheaper. Dealers to ask are EL, joshua, silix and river. They all seem to have this or are able to get it, though all versions seem different. Silix also have joshua's version I think, but ask them first. There have been very recent threads on it so do a search. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvt Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 An inexpensive but fun and cool alternative is the Franck Muller Crazy Hours. Women love them, they are colorful and femanine, and they are quite cool as well. They make a nice conversation piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devedander Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 Just put in an order for the cheap versino of the white J12 from silix for the GF for xmas... if she really likes it I may get her the real ceramic one later on. After looking around I just coudln't find a lot of ladies watch selection but the J12 does seem classy and the small one is appropriately girly sized...

tonton2000 Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 I wonder why the white ceramic cost more than the black ceramic version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WatchDude Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 I would opt for a 40mm pam or a Rolex Explorer I. Nothing is sexier than a woman with a mid-full sized watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 I wonder why the white ceramic cost more than the black ceramic version?
