ssabripo Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 thinking of getting one for the wifey. Any of these any good: Seamaster Black (big markers) it's either something like that, or going with the Gucci or tag: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victoria Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 Hey Ssabripo! Gosh, I don't like that Omega...if your wife is like a lot of women, she might care more for the Omega Constellation. The TT quart seems to be fairly popular amongst members' wives, as I recall one or two posts saying that. As for Gucci, I really don't care for their spindly, spaghetti thin ladies watches, but the one you showed is quite fashionable at the moment. Neither my mother nor I have the rep, sticking to the Twirl instead (of which we have the gens). I still have to show the SS one, but here is the gold rep by Andrew -- very close to gen: Does she have or would her style be in tune with the Cartier Santos? One of the most wonderful watches ever designed. Another good one is the Cartier Tankissime (Joshua): I have been trying to vary my wrist-checks, especially on the weekend, with traditionally "female" watches, but one thing I will never do, and you can take this to the bank, is to have a Panerai watch with pink lume. Might get a pink strap though. Good luck, neighbour! OTHER GOOD INFO THREADS ON LADIES' WATCHES: - "Aarrrgh the misses (sic) loses watch" (rather nice SS Omega Constellation shown) - Lazarini's "Getting a piece for my better half" - Also, this is By-Tor's girlfriend's Tag Heuer review: http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=14263 - Recent "Watch for a Lady" thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victoria Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 awesome stuff Victoria...thank you. any more recommendations? The hot watches for ladies are the ceramics. The problem is I cannot stand these, save for the Hublot Big Bang Aspen, which I am getting from Narikaa, a famous collector here. You could PM him for ideas. Another problem with me is that I have specifically classic tastes for ladies' watches, sticking to Cartier and Rolex when I was growing up. I still mourn the loss of my Two-Tone Rolex DJ I had for yeeears, but which was the victim of an errant golf club swing (crown fell off, never was the same again. Rolex wanted to charge a fortune to fix it, so we are just hanging on to it for the moment). Since I have boku ladies' gens, it really never has occured to me to get reps, or to see if the reps are available of the ones I have. But just so that you know, the Technomarine Ceramic (gen site below) and J12, the Chanel equivalent, are very popular right now. The latter has some great reps. http://www.worldofwatches.com/Technomarine...o_brand_id=2301 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff g Posted August 29, 2007 Report Share Posted August 29, 2007 My wife loves her Constellation. It is quartz of course, but very close to the gen. I would not recommend the Seamaster. Far and away her favorite is her Cartier Tank. Also a good looking rep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
