路The Cartier has had a long run. If you want to geek out, research the history of the model and find the more intersting of them or best movement etc- that way you can feel like your getting her something horologicaly special and not just a Cartier Tank.

If my wife were into watches, I'd get her this.

路I bought my wife an Omega Constellation. She likes smaller watches, so it's only a 26mm (IIRC) quartz model, but she loves it!

路Thanks everybody for the suggestions. Seems like the consensus is go Cartier or go vintage. Obviously for a purchase this big I will take her to try each piece on in the metal. Whatever she picks, that鈥檚 what she鈥檒l get. Now that I think about it, going for the Cartier (the quartz movement version) would leave enough in the budget for a 34mm vintage Seamaster or similar. Could be a round about way of adding another piece that I could wear. 馃榾
What did you end up getting for your wife? I agree Cartier was/is the way to go.
These are my 3 Cartiers. Tank (quartz), Pasha and Ballon Bleu 馃槈

路I have thought about the same question 5 years ago.
In the end I bought a watch she really loves, but never wears because she's loving it too much...

路路@SpeedyBirthYearMany options available, so certainly not an easy choice. That said, from experience I can recommend this little gem. My GF loved it so much she fell for it while we were at an OB collection a watch for myself...

路Hi All
So my wife actually ended up deciding on a white/pearl dial Aqua Terra. Quartz movement version. With the savings vs the Cartier we also ended up getting her a nice pendant necklace from the David Yurman boutique a couple doors down from the AD. She ended up deciding the Cartier looked a bit too formal/dainty for an only watch. It鈥檚 next on her wishlist now. Looks like I may have succeeded in giving her an expensive new hobby 馃榾
