Incoming............But Not For Me.
My wife is not one to "indulge" in luxury items, but she does appreciate fine jewellery and timepieces. Since our first child was born back in 2011 and our second one in 2014, she has never asked for anything and have always put them ahead of anything else. It seems fitting and timely that we present her with this watch to commemorate her graduation (which took a many years due to personal issues), her birthday, and Mother's Day.

Stainless steel is her choice for watches as she is not a fan of PM watches. Also, she prefers the dressy styling of Omega as opposed Rolex. She opened the box earlier this morning and she absolutely loves it. So without further adieu, onto the incoming!

Thanks Seth.

It truly is beautiful. Mother of pearl with a diamond dial. She's been eyeing this one for quite some time now.

Congrats to your wife on graduating. She sounds a lot like my wife in that she puts our family first before worrying about her needs as well.

It's a beautiful, simple dial, yet elegant design. Glad to hear that she likes it! Nice job.

Thanks Tom.

There is only one more thing better than your own incoming and that is getting an incoming for someone you love. The feeling and being able to see the expression of happiness on their face is priceless.

Thanks Neil.

Love mother of pearl dials on ladies watches. Especially when paired with diamonds.

I was on the fence with this one and the Datejust Lady 31. But in the end, I chose Omega for her as that is her brand preference in brands.
