Submariner comes in one size, 41mm -- not to be confused with the Sea-Dweller which is 43 mm (and 44mm for the SD DeepSea). Some women are totally fine with wearing a slightly larger watch, let the wife try one on. But the '911 Carrera watch' for women is probably the DateJust.
Just needed a reason to post my El Primero. And to see if I could figure out how to post a pic.

This was my first 'grown up' watch. Style is a little divisive but at the time I found it interesting. And the El Primero movement is solid.
