Ladies DJ opinion needed...

Hi all -

So Valentine's Day is coming up and I wanted to purchase a Rolex for my wife. I've been looking here on TRF and haven't had any luck yet. I found what seems to be a nice piece on eBay, and wanted your opinions on it. Of course I've done my homework on the seller and they're legitimate and trustworthy, but I'm more concerned that I'm getting a good deal. Have a look:

Watch is nice. You can do better though from a trusted seller here for less, just saying.

Yea I agree. I'm going to keep plugging away. I'd rather buy from a TRF seller anyways.

I was able to bring him down to $2800... No box or papers. Since it's a gift that's not too good for me.

If you don't see what you like from a Trusted Seller on this board right away, I would reach out and PM, email or call one of them directly.

I had a similar dilema (gift for wife), I called Takuya (Thanh), told him what I wanted, he called me back shortly with a good option. Done deal.

I would also open your search to the 31mm DJ. Looks a lot better IMHO.

Or even a 34mm.

My sister wears a YG Day-Date w/ a domed bezel and Oyster band and it looks great on her!

I'm a big supporter of the 31mm for females and that's the one I am after myself.

My good friend DavidSW is on the hunt. I'm at ease knowing he's looking for a nice piece.
