My husband said he would buy me a Rolex as a “push present” for our first child. I would want just a classic, timeless (no pun intended) looking ladies Rolex watch that I can wear for many years to come. Suggestions on a style? I really don’t know anything about them and would like to get some opinions on what people like since there are so many options.

It would have to be the Datejust with stick indices and jubilee bracelet. Stainless steel or two-tone depending on your wardrobe and style. Simple, classic, and timeless. End of thread. Enjoy!

I've had my yellow gold DateJust for 20+ years and I love it. My only comment is this: The watch is gold, as are the face and hands. It looks so classy, I can dress up or down with it, but at times it is difficult to tell the time because of the lack of contrast between the face and the hands. Easier during the day because of shadows; a little more difficult in the evening. It is, in fact, a timeless piece and I still get tons of compliments on it.

Date just, olive green dial, jubilee bracelet. Absolute classic!

This is awesome. OP: what look do you like? Yellow gold? White gold / stainless? Middle of the road bling or super understated? Diamonds or nah?

Is it wrong that I'm sort of pissed off by this? Should I say something?

Is anyone concerned the push for sexual equality in pay without accordant leveling of parental leave is gonna backfire?

Here’s a hypothetical:

A company has 2 candidates, aged 25-30, equal in every respect save one’s a man the other’s a woman. Maybe the woman is a slightly better candidate overall. They’d have equal comp.

Company considers the woman a riskier bet due to possibility she’ll take maternity leave — and considers the man less risky for his ineligibility to take as much leave. 🤷

Why are potential business happenings by a candidate’s kid disqualifying but (gestures wildly) for the other candidate not for TSers? Going to your resort, conducting federal business at your property, having foreign officials stay, not doing a blind trust, being granted trademarks/land deals in other countries, promoting your products/books in office, calling out other companies?
