 I lied! I couldn't wait til after the holiday and was up again til 2:00 am last night and all of today. When I am on a mission, I'm obsessed! :shock: 

So I have good news and bad. I'll start with the bad. I spoke with my jeweler and she told me that the Rolex DateJust that would fit your needs runs $7000 w/a 10% discount for $6300. An entry level on steel with no date would start at $4000. Sorry. :(

The good news is that I did finally find a watch I think you will like. (minus the diamonds at this price point - my search so far indicates that it's either the movement or diamonds, unless you're willing to up the $. :)) Here's the watch -

Here's the company -

Baume Mercier is a brand  highly coveted by many women. I own two myself. This year's ambassadors are Ashton Kutcher and Teri Hatcher. Unlike most, they're donating their royalties to support the fight against cancer, the promotion of childhood education and helping underpriviledged women! cool10.gif

Anyway, if you like this watch, the site says free overnight shipping, but it also says it usually ships in 2-8 weeks, so you if you're interested you may want to call first and confirm. Also this company offers a 3 year warranty, plus an additional extended 3 yr warranty and a lifetime warranty you can purchase.  Also note the link at the bottom on how you can save an additional 5%. They also offer an Extended Holiday Return Policy til Jan 16th, but you have to tell them it's a gift when you place the order and request it. (My uncle owns this site! subtlelaugh.gif j/k!!!! :P :cool:)

Now, back to a project I started 3 days ago and then getting ready for Thanksgiving. Then I'll get back to looking for more watches for your lovely wife! And what an amazing wife she must be! hearteyes.gif Of course any suggestions from our 3T family members would be hugely appreciated! ;) :)
