Buy a Timex and put the rest into stocks, bonds, etc.

I have found several nice used watches at the Galleria in Houston for my wife.
Some have diamonds around the face, some antiques, but never got a Rolex for her yet.
She wears a different one, depending on what outfit she is wearing that day.
None were cheap, all were beautiful. I am not a fan of the Rolex look.

I don't wear a watch.

Ulysse Nardin
Rolex
Vianney Halter
Breitling
Tag Hauer
Torgoen
Blvgari
Ball
Romaine Jerome
Louis Moinet
Talley & Twine

Are some choices on my list. Rolex is 1st and I'm actually looking at some used (official dealers) watches of theirs.
The best advice I would give is do your research and due diligence. Great choice & congratulations.

The watch ads rarely ever show a lady in full dress mode, imo, or in various dress modes.

Patek Philippe and Tag Heure being the exceptions that seem to stand out.

Perhaps cut out some print ads and display against your wrist while wearing different outfits to determine the better "look."

That said, it is your wrist, and the "look" you want to display to others is always yours, of course.

Absolutely cannot go wrong with a ladies' Rolex 99 pct of the time, imo.

If you're ever in Dallas I have a dealer that has a showroom so you can view and try on some pretty nice watches. You can save money by not going retail and you can save a bit more if its not a brand new watch. Sometimes that's a better route since you can purchase a custom dial or bezel and not be the one taking that initial $$ hit for the modification.

For you though, i'd recommend looking at a Chopard also...women love the twirling diamonds under the glass.

She said she has a Rolex. I just don't remember buying it for her. When I have issues trying to figure out what to buy her, I just go to a jewelry store and give them a price I want to spend and they bring out everything in that price range. I have had good luck buying gifts like that.

I lived off of Eldridge and Memorial for 2 years. I wish I knew about Eccie back then. We could have had a few dates...
