You really do need to go and try on! Since this is a milestone gift and you have already received watches as special gifts and you're saying you don't have a substantial bracelet, it may be time to get a gold bracelet. I personally am done with steel watches, if I ever get another watch it will have some rose gold, either two tone or the simple tank with leather band in rose gold. I find myself wearing watches less and less lately too. I was between the small love and this juste for years but decided I wanted something that was easier to remove, I live in Hawaii and wind up doing various activities and I was feeling uncomfortable with the idea that I could only remove the love with a tool. I tried this one on and I immediately knew it was what I wanted. I tried many others on (various designers), especially with how small my wrist is, and I knew this was it. I thought I'd take it on and off more too but I really don't, however I again appreciate the fact that I can remove it as soon as I want/need to. Good luck!

I have both and I love both so it's hard to say. If you want to wear it all of the time I'd go for the bracelet because it's easy to stack (if you plan on rotating watches). I agree that you should go to the store and see which one feels better on you.

As Andy Warhol said: "I don't wear a Tank watch to tell the time. In fact, I never wind it. I wear a Tank because it's the watch to wear."
Got myself a Tank Must XL for my first university degree - worked my ass off for both the degree and the watch, and it felt so good buying it and having it personalized: "De N.N. à N.N., BA". My SA loved the idea, too, and we had lots of champagne both when making the purchase and when picking it up.

Hi everyone, thank you so much for your answers. My apologies for the tardiness of my reply but I had to take some time away.
I've added a few things to my wish list...what would you guysbgo for...sadly atm I can only go for one. For reference, the ring I chose for my engagement ring I very very rarely wear...I was in my early twenties back then and my taste has changed a lot 25 years later so I'm thinking a new ring may be the go...but I love the bracelet and the bag as well. Would love to hear your thoughts.🤗20231209_144913-kdcollage.jpg
