20k post double incoming for the future Mrs
First, I’d like to thank all of you for helping me feel less crazy about this hobby of ours. I’m trying to introduce my future bride to the hobby and have started her off with a couple of sunburst dials. She has tiny wrists so I have to keep the watches small. So far 26mm has gone over well. Next we’re going for 31mm.

Congratulations!
PS: Kudos for a having taste in traditional ladies size Rolexeses. I’m kinda missing the strong femininity of a classic Rolex on a woman with all the 36 - 44mm taking over. |

Congratulations on 20000 Mike
I always enjoy reading your posts and thoughts here. BTW I agree with Chewey, it’s really great to see your partner wearing those classic sizes … I think they look fantastic  Especially that pink dial Keep the posts coming

My wife has found the 31mm to be the sweet spot for her and I agree. She tried the 36mm and found it just a wee big to her liking. She wants a TT, Jubilee, fluted, white dial Datejust, which I plan to make happen for Christmas. Last Christmas I got her a OP Coral Red dial.

Looking great.
My bride likes the smaller DJ and OP pieces too.

Congrats on 20k posts. Love you are including the future MRS. I got mine into it right away in the deep end with a Sea Dweller 16600, which she loves. Now she won’t wear anything less than 40mm.
 Also got my daughter a white dial Milgauss for her 21st birthday many many years ago now.  https://youtu.be/4tqO51tQxBQ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Congrats to her!
Fortunately for you the smaller mm PM pieces aren't as expensive as the 40mm+ pieces. Because it's only a matter of time until those gold ones you have rub off on her
