New watch for my wife 🥰
Hi Crunchers,
I'm currently thinking about getting my wife a new watch for Christmas.
She's a proud owner of a Junghans Max Bill Automatic and really enjoys wearing it. However as a watch nerd, I think she'd also enjoy a second option 😉
She doesn't like big clunky watches, therfore the Junghans was the perfect match. She doesn't care toooo much for it being mechanical, so if there's nice quarz options, also cool. Budget should be around the 1000€ mark.
I'm thinking a black Nomos Ludwig could be an option, anyone have other idea for this kind of style?
Looking forward to your ideas 🍻
P.S.: we're going to visit the Junghans Museum in December, maybe I'd find something nice for her there 😉 but something other than a Max Bill would be my preference.
Very nice pick, very elegant watch.
Maybe a used Cartier?
Amazing 🤩. I love seeing stuff like this. I convinced my five to get into 3 watches so far. She at first told me she will never want to get a watch but I stopped at nothing to find one she would really like plus I built one for her 😅. Or maybe she just wanted to shut me up ✌️🤣
Seiko has some beautiful dials and unique pieces in the Craftmanship series of watches. Here is one I got for my wife this year. Not a big fan of the movement but the dial is spectacular.
A Nomos is a great option. Perfect counterpart of the Junghans
Maybe a used Cartier?
Yeah that's a good idea! Let's see what chrono24 has to offer 😉 any recommendations? I'm no Cartier expert
I was thinking about something dark, because she has an old dark dial Skagen I got her 7 years ago and it's time that got updated 🙈

😀 yeah mine also never understood why anyone would spend more than 50 bucks on a watch... until I got her her Junghans as a "push-present". The awesomeness of the watch and the meaning just clicked for her. She still wouldn't spend that much money on a watch for herself, but she appreciates it as a present 🥰

That's one of the enamel dials, right? Think that would be pretty cool all right!

Yeah, that's what I've been thinking. It's also the limit, I think if I spend any more, she'd probably too nervous when wearing it.

Just had a snout on eBay, there's lots of choice 👏🏻 looks like a "Must de Cartier" is well within your budget.
Good well respected and valued brand that ladies appreciate.
Cant go wrong 😉
Got my Mrs a quartz Cartier & she loves it (she's into the hobby too now).
Good luck 🍀👍

Indeed. We all can relate to that feeling. When I started collecting I was like $1,000 are they mad?! Does it walk the dog and wash the dishes??
Now $3k hmm not bad

yeah, I'm exactly the same... my limit seems to go up every year. I always tell myself, this is the hard limit, more doesn't make sense. 🤣 But when some youtuber calls a 10k watch good value for money, I still have to shake my head a bit 😂

not bad, for under 1k...
A ladies Omega Constellation quartz would blow her mind!
Lovely watches!
I think maybe a field watch, but probably not a dive watch
