Only for a few seconds here and there. She has a tendency to be rough on watches.

Yep she wears my Explorer almost everyday and I’m totally cool with that. She even whispers to it ‘He doesn’t love you as much as I do, he’s cheating on you with the GMT’

Nope. My wife doesn't care for watches. Got her a watch as a wedding gift though which she appreciates

She just doesn't understand this hobby

Tried to buy my wife a Rolex several times over the years. She has smaller wrist and finds the bracelets too bulky even at its smallest size. She has zero interest in anything Rolex. She does love her small Gucci strap watch so for her it’s all about comfort and style. She does recognize that a fine mechanical time piece on my wrist is very sharp and attractive.

She has her own PP and alternates occasionally with my SD4k - easy adjustment with the glidelock.
As this is my sons birth year watch, she says that she needs to “add mummy memories” to it!

I only wear it on the weekends so works out fine as she rarely wears a watch on the weekend.

She wore my DaytonaC once when I sized it for her - she didn’t like it as the chrono pushers dug into her wrist and she put a scratch on the clasp and handed it back after a day.

We are in the market for a Batman so not sure how this is going to work - will probably need to adjust the easy link from smallest to largest. Or I might look into getting a glide lock clasp to fit somehow..

My wife only wears an Apple Watch. And she loves it.
One day I’d like to buy her a DJ36... but honestly I’m not sure she’d wear it.

Mine has two of her own. When we first started dating I removed a couple links on my 16610 and let her wear it. Modern day “going steady” pin lol.

Nope. I tried to share my watch passion with her and purchased her a day date. That last two months and I sold it. She just doesn't like to wear a watch.

She won't wear mine, too big for her wrist. She is happy with her DJ 36 which is her only Rolex.

No. Never. Zero.

My wife would never, ever wear a men’s watch. She loves her DJ. And prefers being feminine.

Yes, my 116520. She wears it and no, she does not need to adjust the band. The extension link seems to do the trick and she wears it a little big.
