I have been searching the forum for insight into what ladies style/size watches are considered super reps. Lots of men's watches obviously, but not many for women.

Does anyone have any insight on this topic?

There's a Franck Muller one (square shaped) that is listed in the Super Rep thread recently, and some Cartiers

The Cartier Ballon Bleu is quite good, the JLC Rendez-Vous Night & Day is another one of my favorites (34 mm on bracelet).

Thank you all for the input.

I showed her the different watches you listed and she is now having a hard time deciding between which one she likes best. ;)

Keep the input coming. If you have a specific TD that you use with great results then please feel free to add that as well.

Are the Black KOR Chanel J12 good reps ? The dial seems good and as it is quartz (such as gen) I think their will be no movement trouble

But the cartier balloon bleu is 42mm, isn that slightly too big for ladies? Is the 36mm any good?

The Cartier Ballon Bleu comes in a host of variations including smaller sizes, 33mm and 36mm for example. I own a 36mm replica of the gen reference W69011Z4.

Good to see another woman on the forum. My wrist is 6 inches or 152.4mm. When it comes to the Ballon Bleu keep in mind that it has very short lugs. I just measured my rep and lug end to lug end the watch is about 38.4mm. I hope that helps.

Thanks, that helped a lot. I have big wrist, so I will go with 36mm. I have read V6F had the best version, but lately there has been someone that says the dial is more beige, so I am thinking going with JF. Yours is from V6F?

My wife has 3 reps but the one she likes most is the JF AP 33mm in black (no diamond). That is really really high quality.

Yes, I have the V6F version and I bought it in March 2015.

I agree about the quality. I liked the AP 33mm (no diamonds on the bezel) so much that I ultimately purchased one in each color offered - blue, black and white dial. I gave my sister the black dial and it has become one of her favorite watches.
