Need a watch for a lady. Must have Lume!

My wife's noticed that my watches have lume and her 31mm DJ doesn't.

What to get her? And it should have a blue face or some other interesting color (I already know she doesn't like plain black or white.)

Is there a 31mm DJ with a blue face? Stick markers is the best option for lume? Post pics of suggestions if possible

Thanks

My wife says the same thing about lume. She also wants the "thingy on the front to time stuff." Problem is, her wrist is just too small for a professional series 40mm.

You can get a 31mm DateJust with a blue stick dial, just check out the Rolex website for pictures.

I own a 36mm stick dial DJ and the lume is very good

My wife has this and she really likes it





The grape Op is 39mm?

Yacht-Master is 35mm

She tried 31mm watches and her sweet spot is 35mm and it looks so much better she says

While it's no Rolex, for maximum 'lume' in darkness and a blue-face to boot, a Timex Indiglo will often do the trick.
