Wishing you many more years of married happiness!

On the watch, I think it’s a beautiful piece, and even if I didn’t you have your priorities straight—if she likes it, that’s all that matters, period. I had a similar situation when I bought my wife an Hermès Cape Cod watch. The WIS in me wished the movement was mechanical (she has the small version that only comes in quartz), but my wife doesn’t care about that, so I happily bought it for her. She wears it proudly and regularly, and the movement isn’t remotely a factor.

Cheers to you and wife!

Lovely story indeed . Thank you for the photos! Cheers, Filip

The Reverso One Cordonnet is such a seductive watch. I agree with you, a mechanical movement would have been a killer choice.

She looked at other timepieces but told me the JLC was the one she could see herself wearing every day. One of the other pieces she tried on was a Cartier Panthère in YG. She said that might be something she could imagine wearing later. Life was easier wh...
