I’m looking to give myself a (late) 30th birthday gift of a daily watch that I hope will be my only watch for a long time. I was bouncing around between brands but have settled on the small stainless steel Tank Francaise and the Rolex Datejust 31 and would like input on what looks better. Please don’t recommend other models as I have been looking for years and it has taken me months to narrow it to these two.

I know there is a considerable difference in price and that one is quartz and one is automatic, but I’m really trying to base this decision on what will look best, both today and five or ten years from now, and what goes best with my style. I wear a small diamond half eternity band wedding ring and small diamond earrings and almost no other jewelry. My usual outfit is jeans, loafers or booties, and a neutral sweater (navy, black) or white button up, with the occasional stripe thrown in. I wear business casual occasionally but it is the same look but with black cropped pants subbed in for the jeans.

Wrist shots are attached. Thanks in advance!

I think I like the TF on you better, maybe the Rolex is too plain - the Cartier seems more interesting to look at. Good luck deciding.

Hi everyone- I ended up going with the DJ. I’m a little sad because I really liked the TF, but ultimately it was a little small and not quite the right look with a lot of my outfits. Maybe I’ll buy it later. Thanks for the help!
