To the women on the forum. Would you rather receive a 36m date just or Cartier nail bracket? Looking to buy a Christmas, birthday, push baby gift (lumping them together) 😂. I know it’s a watch forum but which would you prefer.

To be honest, such an expensive gift I don’t understand the concept of surprise, just ask her what she wants!

36mm is pretty large for a woman’s wrist. My largest dial is 33mm and I think I have an above avg wrist size.

I’m assuming the baby is yours? And if so, hope that you know her well enough to know whether she would prefer a DJ or a juste un clou. Our opinions don’t matter.

Objectively, a DJ will hold value better than the bracelet.

A 36 minute long date is very specific. Seems short as well. What type of date specifically is it?

Nah it's pretty funny

31mm unless she's a larger lady

Also this bowl will be biased 😊

Ask. We don’t know her, her style preferences etc.
I did exactly the same with my wife for our 2nd daughter. We went to the AD together to pick her preferred DJ and ordered. Downside: there may been gold involved 😬
Also took a couple of weeks for delivery, so keep in my mind if you place a custom order.

Does that bracelet cost just as much as the DJ? Just curious; would have guessed it was a couple K

Right, I saw a picture and thought “seriously??”

I think anything up to 36mm is fine. My wife is fairly petite and has a 35mm and a 36mm watch. Definitely the style these days. I saw a woman wearing a 40mm Daytona this summer and even that didn’t look crazy.

F here with a 36 mm. Fits just fine on my non-dainty wrist. Wouldn’t go any bigger though.

I asked my gf and she said DJ. But she also said she would rather have the Bulgari Serpenti watch (looks like a snake) for formal occasions. She’s not a watch person FWIW

SM on my project stepped away on paternity leave. SM was the one who led partner discussions and most of the client meetings. We're a week from a client deadline.

As a manager, I'm stepping but incredibly stress with the amount of moving parts. I don't have a strong rapport with the partner (Neither did the SM) to be open and transparent on how stressful I'm feeling without downgrading myself.

I'm sick to the stomach and very anxious, stressed at the suddenness of the thrust.

Help!
