I'm having a tough time picking the best "OH SNAP!!!" GIF for that one. Well played baglady

Not at all, i'm someone's man too and happy to be :D. Oh come on don't get all offended we're all just having a bit of fun - and i dislike foreplay.
And i agree, we should be posting about watches, not other things such as bags

It's all good friend. You find me a good deal on a 5164R and you can adorn me in all the diamonds you'd like.

It's 2019, he finds you the watch, you adorn him with the diamonds or the same money in beer and pizza - but no mushroom toppings of course.

I'm not getting him beer and pizza. That's my food.

My girlfriend also dislikes the overly encrusted diamond pieces. The two you've set your sights on are perfect.
The 5205r shouldn't be a chore to get, I've seen them in a few AD's in the states. I think you could try that on before taking the plunge.
I might also bring up the World Time collection. It's really under appreciated IMO and would look at home on any gender. Enjoy the hunt.

Thanks. I tried on the 5205 with a "white" dial today at Wempe on Bond Street. Beautiful watch although I do want the black dial.

. They do say once you go black, u never go back

I think Piaget and Girard-Perregaux do better for women. But that's not the question.

Yes, let's rein this back in, the standard of this forum is that it is a family forum and I think the PP forum is getting a little too broad, and we are all guilty of it.

If I was a woman I would collect the following:

1) Patek 3970 probably in J or Patek 5004J - At 36mm fantastic watch
2) Rolex Daytona Ceramic White - They don't call it the girlfriend watch for no reason
3) Check out FP Journe, they make around 39mm slim timepieces too, chronometre Bleau would be amazing or any of the Rose gold cases too.
4) If you must go aquanaut, I would look for the older aquanauts -I've seen quite a few ladies wear the 36mm well. 5167r wears much better/slimmer for a smaller wrist than the chunk of a 5164R.

****SPECIAL MENTION**** Pick up the blue Hermes Slim limited edition 100 piece blue from Hodinkee - will fit lady's wrist really well AND all 100 pieces were made from a single alligator skin. Walk into the Hermes boutique with pride knowing you have something THEY themselves couldn't get.

I would not go with either option you cited. 5164R would look ridiculous unless you are more husky. If you are over 5"6 or overweight I think it would be ok.

There is a "baglady" on instagram I follow "AYTY Style" check her out. She wears a lot of men's watches. Some are a bit too big. Others like the 5004 are droolworthy :)

I'm looking to make my first acquisition(s) by December/January/February. On my list are:

5164R (lol I know right?)
5205R

I'm curious if anyone had thoughts on the suitability of the 5205R for women? I'm not a huge fan of the "womens" watches in general, and the 5205 seems so classic.

I'm also wondering if anyone has advice for how to snag the 5164 from an AD. I travel quite extensively (and can go anywhere pretty much at a moment's notice for this). I'm also willing to purchase both as a package deal.

Even if no one as any advice, I'm glad to be part of this community and happy to say hello :-)

This just doesn't look right... everything well thought and matching and then you take a look at the wrist and the pizza makes your eyes tear.

Irrelevant, it is the quote that has to be PG.
