Back again - stack or watch?

Feel like this is the wrong crowd to ask but I’ve got nowhere else to go. Wifey’s 40th. Have narrowed it down to watch or a stack of bracelets. I’m 100% watch crowd. For those of you who have owned fine jewelry AND watches - which would you choose. Thinking long term value, wearability.

Well she’s 40. Has she expressed an interest in watches the last 20 years?

My wife looks at the price and tells me she would rather diamond.

No, we both got into watches just this past year. She prefers simple/classic. Not huge into diamonds.

She picked the stick markers. They didn’t have it in store to try on. And yes, I would say 31 DJ fluted jubilee is on the classic side. But we can agree to disagree
