Incoming for fiance

She always thought I was crazy about watches until I got her this last week. Now she wants me to make a post about her watch, and she calls out all the watches she sees on people’s wrists everywhere we go.

New little 28mm president in white gold reference 6917. Amazing condition and full set surprisingly from 1979.

That's so funny you say that. I showed her a 5267 aquanaut a few days ago just to see what she thought after we saw one on someones wrist at dinner and her initial reaction was "too big and rugged". We shall see

Beautiful! Those are classic, feminine looking watches. I have one myself (my MIL’s 1970s gold President) I don’t wear it every day, but when I do it’s like a stunning piece of jewelry. Not every outfit calls for the more rugged and sporty oyster. Nice choice!

I do not normally comment on women's watches, but I have to say the 6917 looks absolutely perfect on your (soon to be) Mrs. Congratulations.

Thanks everyone. We were happy to find the white gold variant as they don't pop up very often
