Searching for a Pink Dial Watch for a Cancer Warrior

[FormerBuckeye]

My wife is battling breast cancer and has surgery next week. When she comes home from the hospital, I want to give her a watch with a pink dial in honor of the fight she is winning. Due to edema problems (involvement of the lymph nodes), she needs something with an easily adjustable band. She would prefer a round, analog watch with a stainless steel case and band, but a black leather band would be OK. No diamonds or bangle style watches. Target price range is $150-$250 as she is rough on watches due to a brain injury. I like Citizen, but the bands don't appear to be easily adjustable. Other suggestions?

My prayers & best thoughts go out to you. Indeed, keep fighting! I wish the best to BOTH of you.

my prayers go out to you and your wife as well. as for the watch, have you looked at the Casio Baby G line? Lots of pink dial and pink strap choices.

all the best.

Echo all on sending my thoughts and prayers to you and your wife!

My wife has a pink Fossil watch as well as a pink dialed Rolex with diamond bezel
I would go to the mall, look at Fossil and in your big box department stores
you will find MANY options!!!!

The GShock also does pink and they are fun watches.

My prayers go out to your wife and your family. Swatch might have something. I found this watch but I am not sure if this is what you are going for.

Thanks for the prayers and suggestions. Some of the Fossils look like possibilities. That Swatch is WAY too pink, IMO. The Baby-Gs shock resistance make we want to look at them more closely. Like some brain injured individuals, she tends to constantly move one hand or the other. If she's sitting at a table, whatever is on the moving wrist tends to repeatedly hit the bottom of the table. Unless I find something with a strap or easily adjustable band, I'll have to take her to the store this weekend to fit her wrist.

Also I forgot I bought my wife a fun Tissot with a rubber strap (pink) steel watch case, and pink chrono dial. Nice fun watch, looks great and she always says how light and comfortable it is.

I have turned my wife into a watch junkie haha
Luckily she doesn't have as expensive of tastes as I do when it comes to watches (shoes, purses and others things are another story)

My wife [3 years] and sister [in therapy] are both survivors. Best of luck to you both. It can be done!!

PS: I'll ask my wife if she knows of a watch to fit your needs.

Go to Google and type in "Pink Cancer Watch" there will be a few that come up
which help support the cure etc. Some which have the pink ribbon the dial etc.

Please let us know which you get, while my wife is fortunate and has not had to fight that battle she is a Dr and I think Id like to get her a watch with the ribbon to wear sometimes at work as shes a big supporter or the search for a cure from walks, fund raisers etc.

Just now stopped by Jared and while browsing found the following :
The Tag list for $2300
Citizens $168.00
Victorinox Swiss army $450.
All available to look at online at Jared.com

Thanks for the continuing ideas and pics. I stopped by a local Citizen dealer (listed on the Citizen website) that had both the Riva diamond ($375 / $260) and Silhouette ($199 / $140) in stock. I thought my wife would be thrilled with the look of the Riva and it had a better quality band. At $260, it was priced about $20 less than most online stores. Due to her current edema, it fits her left wrist perfectly without removing any links. Thanks again for all the suggestions.
