I always liked them as a good watch to start off with when you start doing well, and their women's watches are very classy and elegant. I have never been a fan of Rolex, a little too flashy for me - gimme a Navitimer in stainless finish and I'm good. I also like Tags as well, very nice and subtle for women, my sister has a few. We get it from my Dad, he collects watches like some guys collect paychecks
So you liked that ESPN shit huh?
Stop reminding me that I need start being more fiscally responsible! And ye that ESPN shit was the truth, but let's not go all "Calton" about it - keep it strictly hetero

BTW I've been lurking through the B&M website and I'm not exactly smitten...

Really? they usually have a few nice styles for women. Are you looking for elegant and dressy or simple and sporty? If the latter, then I would definitely suggest a Tag - very simple, very sporty, and great quality

Sporty - she thinks "elegant" is a synonym to "old", and since she's nearing the big two-five, its a sensitive subject bwahahahaha I love her to death

Gonna look at some Tags as soon as I finish reading this article about gold... check out my thread in the lounge

Get her a Rolex Explorer... 36mm is just big enough to be sporty on a woman. Vintage or new.

I'll look into getting a Rolex after I will have bought the Navitimer or Montbrillant, a Panerai and possibly a Frank Muller. Until then Rolex just isn't in my plans.

That said, it is a nice watch you recommended.

Nonono, Rolle first, then Panerai (my next targeted acquisition)

When you decide on a watch pm me what you are looking for and what you can get it for. I only wish you were closer.

I have a simple Movado. I love the minimalist look and the black face. It's also kind of funny since it is not easy to glance and see the time. When I get drunk I love to tell my friends its 1000 o'clock when they ask. They don't ask anymore.
