Looking for a Datejust for Wife

Hi there,

Am a newbie to Rolex. Am looking for a ladies datejust for my wife. The new datejust with arabic numbers looks nice. Was wondering where and what is the best discounts given for rolexes.

Thanks for all your help!

[triton]

discount range from 15-18% dependin on cash/card/bargaining power

[seiko.citizen]

another variable is the SA..... if they are having lousy month, they are more accommodating.

Recommendations for the Mrs?

Im looking for a rolex for my wife, brand new preferred, budget ard 8 to 9k after discount? Preferably comes with date. Her wrist is not too big so i tink max 35mm for the watch size?

What would a good recommendation for a 30 year old lady? Prefers no gold. Only stainless steel.

Thanks !

Explorer I is a good choice IMO, if it hasn't been phased out totally. DJ too common.

I mean the outgoing Exp 1 of course (think it's 35mm or 36mm), not the new 39mm size

A datejust should do fine.

New range of boy size datejust featured on bezel world 2010 looks good. New dials and diamond lined bezel. Budget wise, may be out of range.

Datejust has always had poor resale value. However, if its a gift from husband to wife, its priceless. ;-)

Thanks everyone for your suggestions, the watch for the Mrs will not be resold, she will most prob keep it with her all the time, wont resell one, not like me itchy backside haha. Hmmm ok will go check it out.

think a MOP DJ

[seiko.citizen]

depends on what type of person she is; if dressy can get DJ, if the more sporty type, maybe explorer/submariner.

I still prefer meteorite dial over MOP for some reason.

think a MOP DJ

And with diamonds. On markers/bezel, or both

got for my wife a DJ boy size 31mm i think during a trip to switzerland. She loves it... although she wants another cartier santos lol...

I would recomment DJ boysize with roman numeral dial which i think is classy. No diamonds if you want it at the price u were mentioning though.
