I have a smaller ladies watch (vintage Hermes) and I like how it looks in a stack. A larger watch feels very arm party of 2011 to me.
Is this watch out of date?

ITA, it’s fabulous and can be fun with casual jeans, leggings and (whispers) sweatshirts
you can make it your special look for the watch!Did I mention I LOVE it
Oh wow. This is jewelry. Not outdated..no. It evokes a certain period 50s -70s, I’m guessing. It would be smashing with anything simple, dressy or casual. I’d prefer it to the Rolex.
It’s a classic..keep it. Kicking myself in the lower anatomy for asking my mom to sell off her all gold Rolex Datejust when she wanted me to have it. That was about 15 years ago. I’m still regretting it today...as it costs an arm and a leg now.
I think it's gorgeous - a timeless piece (pardon the pun!).
There's something about vintage watches that just evokes such a je ne sais quois in me, and that watch is no exception.
Plus the history and emotional significance associated for you makes it more special.

Depends on how you dress it. My friend wears a dressy watch like that when she’s in her traditional Pakistani outfits for parties and such.
She also brings it out when she’s wearing super casual jeans and heels. She layers it with other bracelets so that it looks more like an arm stack of jewelry than a watch-watch.
If I were you, I would accept it and take it as a lovely gesture. Not all MIL are that kind!

Yes! This!
also if anyone thinks yellow gold and white diamonds are not in style, the classics are roaring back
, like this yellow gold wave necklace with diamonds set in white
