[craste]

Hello

I want to get a watch for my wife's 40th in a few weeks.

I Like this

Gucci YA139506 Women's Horsebit Stainless Steel Bangle Strap Watch, Silver/White



but would like some help - what would you choose?

Budget is anything up to 1K

we both think the Gucci watch now looks a bit 'gran'.

I like this but its a lot more expensive.

This is along similar lines to the Cluse watch:

It is a 33mm case size. Some of the men's watches are 38mm (the same as Cluse). The Max Bill is an iconic design and a much better watch.

Longines is also a good brand and a large range under £1000.

If you decide to go for Junghans or Longines you should give Dominic Hackett a call as he maybe able to source them at a good discount.

Thank you, I've messaged Dominic - so thank you for the advice.

As an update went for the watch below, kindly sourced by Dominic Hackett (fantastic to deal with) who was recommended to me on here.
