On my side, my wife (we are married for 40+ years) didn't paid any attention until a couple years when she got the "virus".
She was deep attracted for this Longines (dual power barrels, the last in house movement).
After this one ... She started paying attention to watches, in her own way.
She is my strong supporter and here phrase is always "you deserve this one".
After the Longines, she collected a nice set of IWC Portofinos.
I still don't know the types of watches that she go to be hooked. One thing I know, she is not attracted to "ladies watches", but the clean looking ones.
Sometimes she surprises me by "capturing" a watch that I don't believe that she go to like.
This Omega, that she traded with me by a Portuguese chronograph:
Not a single chance that she let go this one.
Last thing: We went to an IWC event "Watchmaker for a Day" and to my and all guys surprise, she was able to disassemble and assemble a watch movement.
She now have her certificate on her studio and teases me every time I look to it.
Cheers,
Nilo
