Wife's Christmas present (Tudor)
Discussion
After looking at longines, Tag, Baume & Mercier a few months ago my wife picked the B&M Classima. I've been hanging out for ages since then for no particular reason and today decided to buy it. So I went to Bluewater and bought her a Tudor
. When I had both the watches in my hand the Tudor felt better built, in particular the bracelet. I hope she likes it or it's another trip back to the shops. 
I don't really know why I'm posting on here apart from maybe looking for people to tell me I'm right and she is wrong.

To my eye, those two watches are very different. The Tudor may feel better built, but it is much more masculine in styling with the integrated lugs and sword hands; the jewelled hour marks look like a nod to feminise a utilitarian design. The Classima is more floral with the centre contrast on the dial and shaped hands.
True but I think she should prefer the Tudor. If not then I will get myself a Tudor and I can find her a second hand B&M bargains for £4.50.

Excellent! Was going to post the same thing.
Rule number one of marriage, when going shopping for the missus buy what you are told and show that you are able to follow instructions to the letter and not undermine her judgement.
Jeez guys. She coerced me into a Range Rover sport a few years ago! I think I owe her a watch she doesn't want. I'm going back to work today (near blue water) so I need to make up my mind later.
