Wife’s bday time piece

Bought Mrs. S her first Rolex.
She usually wears Apple Watch, but wanted something a bit more special.
Ended up choosing a classic 28mm DateJust. Fluted. Jubilee.
Had a fantastic afternoon! Happy Wife, Happy Life.

“It’s too small..... should have gone at least 41... what is she? Seventy???” “No one wears 28mm any more don’t you watch the Kardashians??”

The above is a joke. In all seriousness it’s a classy looking watch that looks great on her wrist. Good pick.

Looks great.
Now you can plan on the wedding anniversary and buy your wife a solid gold with diamond model
Only joking, actually the fluted bezel is solid 18k white gold....so you done good already.

You’re dangerous. It’s probably best if you never meet Mrs. S! :)

She loves the piece! Thank you for reminding me the fluted bezel is 18k White Gold - I had totally forgotten about that.

Great choice! Looks great on her wrist . I bought the same one for my wife and she loves it

Here’s some food for thought:
