Another strap choice on the Continental, this time a CW leather with Bader clasp. It's hard to beat for convenience...

If I am truthful, that is on the smaller side for you. Maybe a better fit for your wife.

To illustrate, this one is a little small, it's my Dad's old Seamaster. It is, admittedly, my least worn watch, but is not leaving my collection. I do wear it from time to time.
