Ceramic Rolex on the ladies

Anyones ladies sporting ceramic Rolexes, e.g 116713, 116613 etc?

Lets see them... Seriously consider upgrading the missus to a 116713, but not sure if it will be too big. She rocks a 16610 now

Should be fine, as they're both 40mm watches. The super case of the GMT wouldn't make that much difference, I wouldn't think.

What's the hulk challenge? some kind of body building contest?

No she doesn't. I wasn't suppose to get it till our 5 year anniversary (still 3 years away). But something wonderful is happening and I thought it will be a nice present for her. Plus, the whole price increase and model discontinue rumor going around. I decided to get it early.
I have been selling the idea to her whenever she started looking at other watches.

Like the BLNR give away?!

I wanted to become a pledge member, but the facilitator said it will only last till 1/31/18. So I thought I would just wait to become one on 2/1/18.

Yep, like the BLNR. It's already filled, so might as well wait.

I wish my wife could pull off anything bigger than 34mm - Life would be a whole lot easier, and there would be a whole lot more watches in the case! Looking good Kaya.

She has seen the watch in person and likes it a lot. But she is seeing other watches like the Datejust rose gold with mother of pearl dials and said she loves those, too. I am trying to sell her the idea that a sub with green dial is much better and looks so much better on ladies.

You need to start a thread titled "
Does your nail polish match your bezel?"

So far, you're the winner.

Indeed. The all I need to do is get one for each of my toddlers, and the whole family will be prepared for the zombie apocalypse!

But seriously, her wrist circumference is about 1.25” less than mine

Yes it does.

One of the coolest watches I’ve seen worn was a YMII 44” worn by a slender 5’4” woman with tiny wrists. It did help that she was getting on a 50’ sunseeker!

Yeah.. that may be a little too much for the glidelock ajdustment. I wonder what the range is for the glidelock. 20mm?
