PIAGET selection with photos
Ginger,
I'm a bit biased as co-organiser of the PuristS Trip to Piaget factory later this year 
Piaget are an old, true manufacture whose movements have hidden in many of the top brands for 134 years. They also make their own cases, bracelets and jewel setting. Their watches are wonderfully unisex and here is an example of an automatic watch worn by a women that started as a men's watch....38mm diameter.

You can't go wrong with a Piaget !
Good luck,

wrist size and personal preferences

Decide between...
1. Quartz vs. mechanical movement. The first is easy maintenance, the latter requires periodic maintenance but is preferred by most on this forum for a variety of reasons. 2. If mechanical movement: Manual vs. automatic (self) winding. Auto requires littl...

vianney halter classic.... it is slightly bigger than what you have in mind but do a search in this website under the AHCI forum and invest a little time to see if the watch and the amazing passion of its creator appeals to you. It will also be a good hun...
