Ladies watch recommendations

I'd take her out shopping on high street, and a nice lunch :)

Maybe go on Chrono24 first for a bit of an overview, you can put in search parameters like dial color, numerals etc.

Cartier Ballon Bleu ref WSBB0067.Quite small and has roman numerals all the way around.

Thanks I have just done this for inspiration. Didn't know they had a dial filter. Now that I have seen their filter catagories I would say a lot of the luxury watch sellers should take note.

Thanka for brining to my attention

Sorry I wasn't clear on my typing. I meant numbers (1,2,3 etc)

Defijantly a good looking watch though

Check out Michele:

Best of luck in your search!

In the luxury end Chanel J12 has numbers and is available in black or white, auto or quartz. Or you could go vintage, the men's sizes then may fit well.

If you’re looking for a microbrand then check out March LA-B if you haven’t already. I think they make some great looking watches with models specific to men and women. Honestly, I’ve considered buying some of the women’s models for myself! 😂

You can't go wrong with Cartier, all ladies like it. If budget constraints are lower go with Longines Dolcevita or La Grande Classique colelction. But those are more or less roman numerals or markers. You will limit yourself if numbers are a must, maybe Nomos can do the trick ( Tetra or Club ).

Cartier tank on steel bracelet. Nothing like it. And when she googles who else has worn the Tank…game over. CASE CLOSED

If she likes color perhaps a dark red Seiko Presage. If she likes funky perhaps a mr Jones. If she likes style perhaps a Cartier. If she likes vintage perhaps an Omega Constellation. If she likes a chunky dive watch perhaps a Phoibos or an Islander. If she likes nerdy go for a pink Casio or the Brew Pixal.

Come to think of it…. This is basically my wishlist 😑

Depending on your budget, the small Carrier Santos is perfect. Dress or Casual.

maybe don't look at it as a "ladies watch" but instead a "properly sized watch"...I think it will give alot more options

If you're interested in microbrands, Beaucroft makes a gorgeous watch that I'm drooling for.. https://beaucroftwatches.com/collections/seeker-watches

For bling, anything from Cartier, Seiko, or Citizen have beautiful options. When I do a search for ladies watches, it's interesting how few come up with actual numbers on the dial. It's usually crystals, diamonds or some kind of marker instead.

I'm curious to see what you end up getting. Good luck!

Thank you, never seen this brand before, however they look excellent. Unfortunately I couldn't see any with numbered dials

Might be great for mum, on a big birthday though

Baltic MR01! :)

Ditto what Dean said! JLC ticks the boxes and looks great doing so.

Wow wow wow!

I went through this exact process not long ago. My criteria were it has to be smaller than 35mm, not too blingy and has a mechanical movement since she already has several Quartz watches. I short-listed some Cartiers, IWC Portofino 34 and Omega Aqua Terra 34. In the end, I ended up with the Omega because I felt I was getting more value than the others. What I learnt pretty quickly is that a small watch with a mechanical movement often commands a higher price or they come in larger diameter. A lot of ladies watches in small sizes come with Quartz.

This was the winner 🏆

Showed it too her and despit swing the diamond one on sale from £4k to £1,500 she says it's too expensive and she's going back to a smart watch

I did tell her, I'm paying... But then she reminded me what's mine is hers 😂

Not sure what your budget is, but Montblanc has one that fits the bill. Only 30mm in size, so it's a true ladies watch (also...diamonds):

This Longines also fits the bill at 25.5mm:

There's also one at 34mm...

This is What my Wife Wears!

Hear of Abingdon Watch Co yet?

My wife's preference are small watches as well. In her words, "simple but sophisticated". Some watches that I am considering are:

• Nomos Tangente

• Cartier Tank

• Cartier Panthere

• Longines Dolcevita

• Longines Mini Dolcevita

However, she isn't really a watch person (she's been wearing the same Seiko Lukia for 15 or so years) so I feel like she would appreciate a quartz movement more. Consider that too, as it might be easier for someone to just have a grab and go piece instead of having a mechanical/automatic watch.

Lots of good suggestions already - Longines mini dolce vita would be my pick. Also Tudor 1926 28mm if you want to go the automatic route - you don't see them very often

I recently saw the “12” from Christopher Ward in 36mm.

Several dial colours in both steel and titanium.

Your wife is a lucky girl!

Thank you, I'll run them past her. The cartier tank unfortunately doesn't have a numbered dial in the ladies. Will check the others and thanks 👍

Thank you I'll look into it
