Ladies Complication
If you were to get a complication for your better half, what are thoughts on 4947G-001 vs 7130G-013?
Any other good recommendations with white metal and mechanical movement? I haven't looked into APs yet, but perhaps there is something I should consider? Thanks |

I don't think you can go wrong with either reference, but I personally prefer the 4947G. I love the blue color and the way they added extra stars to the moonphase.

Just not sure if she would appreciate the annual calendar like most of us here do. I also know she has always been a fan of the world time. It's tough because I want to plan a surprise, and I have a hunch she would aapreciate the AC and blue dial as well.. |

I agree the 4947g is a beautiful watch.

At this point, leaning towards the 4947G.
Does anyone know US list prices for both these references? |

Both lovely but big! 4968 is a smaller option.

As much as I wanted to pick and convince the wife on the 4947G, the 38mm size became the deal breaker here.
90% sure the 7130G will emerge the winner here, plus I found out she still dearly wants this piece. I'm a fan of the WT as well so no regrets with this choice as well |

Thank you Gents!
The wife is ecstatic I personally have been favoring the 4947G but after she tried on something similar that was 38mm I agreed it looked too large on her skinny wrists. |
