kasigi Posted March 26, 2006 Report Posted March 26, 2006 I want to buy a watch for Mrs. kasigi, but I have no idea what might be suitable...... She doesn't want a huge face, and neither must it be very thick, but it needs to be plain and simple in design. No chrono for her, just a watch which tells the time. But she likes big chunky leather straps (fnarr fnarr). Any suggestions?
KB Posted March 26, 2006 Report Posted March 26, 2006 Well if you can get her to drop the chunky strap a J12 fits the rest of the bill. Ken

CY0811 Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 Is Mrs. Feek the same girl you had a thread about on RWG1 ? Also EL lady WG look/SS Datejust with president bracelet is the best woman's rep I've seen personally.
Richard Tracy Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 Is Mrs. Feek the same girl you had a thread about on RWG1 ? Also EL lady WG look/SS Datejust with president bracelet is the best woman's rep I've seen personally. I can see that ! Looks great ! Also Cartier or Hermes makes very feminine watches..
rbj69 Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 go look at the ladies datejust i did for my misses its nice and not loud, the ladies ym is also nice piece but shiney, and the cartier tank is small and u can fit it with a slightly thicker strap but most come on a nice bracelet and it is quartz less trouble if u ask me lol , if she is like melissa she will need a plastic cover around it lol she is hard on here watches, i treat my like a delicate flower lol
Ethan Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 I like Josh's smooth bezel datejust. It's not 100% accurate, but it's a very pretty watch with Swiss movement. I'm picking this up for Mrs. Ethan Joe's pick is nice as well, but the Mrs. isn't a fan of the President-style linkset...
jraines87 Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 hmmm.... this is pretty nice... Just so happens, my wife busted up her gen over the weekend and is wanting a new one....
Watchmeister Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 If you're wife likes ice, PM Andrew. He typically has some nice iced pieces. My wife's first (and only) rep is a one-off iced out AP mid-size. She wears it as often as her gens.
Happy T Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 (edited) I recently ordered this FM from Joshua for the wife and can't wait for it to land. If I hear her say "is it here yet?" one more time......... Edited March 27, 2006 by Happy T
bres3000 Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 I have the solution! Buy her a Cartier Santos Dumont - that way, if she decides she doesn't like it, YOU can still wear it. (Its not too big and not too small)
Josetann Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 (edited) I have the solution! Buy her a Cartier Santos Dumont - that way, if she decides she doesn't like it, YOU can still wear it. (Its not too big and not too small) I like that thinking! Bought a Yachtmaster mid-size for my wife, she didn't like it...so I wear it on occassion. She still wears her blue-dial skagen (no idea what model it is or anything, it's just a small watch with date, quartz movement, and blue dial). Oh, I got her a Cartier something-or-other, she didn't like it, and now no one wears it. This particular model's not exactly something a man could wear. Least I don't think so...but knowing guys these days...lol! Edited March 27, 2006 by Josetann
thealphabeta Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 That cartier is lovely - i agree. Buy that then keep it or nick it sometimes
Pugwash Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 She doesn't want a huge face, and neither must it be very thick, but it needs to be plain and simple in design. No chrono for her, just a watch which tells the time. Franck Muller Crazy Hours. It's what Mrs. Pugwash is hankering over.
Happy T Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 Franck Muller Crazy Hours. It's what Mrs. Pugwash is hankering over. I thought about FM's Crazy Hours until I saw how many colors it came in. My wife would insist on having all of the different colors to match her outfit of the day. LOL! BTW, Mrs Pugwash has excellent taste. Beautiful watch.
willster Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 The Mrs not into ss Bracelet but likes the super clean simple look of JLC gold Master Control w/ black or white face and gold hands.....or similar Piaget... wished I could source
cwai02 Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 These are gens: I actually wanted to buy the one with pink dial, but nobody seems to have this rep. So I got this one from King instead.
kasigi Posted March 27, 2006 Author Report Posted March 27, 2006 Grrr, bloody fussy wimmmmin. No joy so far. I think it'll just be a timex from argos the way she's going!
Canuck88 Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 (edited) I know this doesn't fit your criteria, but I got my wife a women's yachtmaster which she loves... looks great on her wrist. Edited March 27, 2006 by Canuck88
Johnkaz Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 Eddie had a nice ladies Gucci a while back. Cheers Johnkaz.
heavyarms Posted March 28, 2006 Report Posted March 28, 2006 River's Patek 24 is beautiful. The girlfriend loves Joshua's Rolex YM.
kasigi Posted April 8, 2006 Author Report Posted April 8, 2006 I've finally made a decision on this. I've ordered that Cartier Pasha from Narikaa. It's her birthday on Thursday so hopefully it'll be here in time and I reckon she'll like that. I don't know how good a replica it is, but I think it looks nice anyway, no matter how close to gen it is. K.
