Hi,
After days of deliberation and perusing the watch threads I would love some opinions.
I am looking to my first luxury watch, my style is minimalist, very non flashy, classic, casual mostly, mom duties and work in academia. I have a small gucci metal two tone for really formal ocassions.
At first I zeroed in on the Cartier Tank Francaise or the Rolex. But as I am looking for something hardy and durable I think the Rolex will be good. I loved the tank but it seemed more like jewelry/ delicate to me. I will most probably get a tank later some time, midsize, maybe two tone to match different jewelry tones.
As of now I have narrowed down the following rolex models. I will go for the steel, oyster bracelet, domed bezel as I find it casual for daily wear.
I prefer mid to large watches by my wrist us average sized 6inches. I am looking at white, black or silver faces in all models.
1. 31mm Roman numerals datejust, my husband loved the black dial but I am just concerned if the dial size is too small and I will regret getting it. https://www.rolex.com/watches/lady-datejust/m178240-0034.html
2. 36 mm datejust, roman, is this too big and will it stand out too much for daily wear.https://www.rolex.com/watches/datejust/m116200-0061.html
3. 34 mm date, stick, I love the size as its right in between but my husband feels it looks too genEric whereas the Roman numerals are classic rolex. Also is this too masculinehttps://www.rolex.com/watches/oyster-perpetual/m115200-0004.html
Pls give your opinions, also which dial color would be best? Thanks
Will try and post wrist shots
