Why do women like Men's Rolex Watches?

[Koala10]

after buying 3 men size rolexes 36mm, I realised they are just too big bulky heavy uncomfy for my tiny wrists. I have sold all of them, leaving only my mid size which I love. not all women like men size watches especially those with very tiny wrists like me.

true

You are totally current

Here are some reasons:

1. They know what you like to see and they want YOU to come closer, and
take a good look.
2. Women watch women, more than they watch men. So, if they see another
lady looking good in a Men's Rolex, they will follow suit.
3. The popularity of sports watches, among both men and women. A miniature of a man's watch seems quite inapropriate. Why settle for something
smaller?
4. Relatedly, the Rolex line for women are not as diverse as that for men. No
GMT, no Submariner, no Daytona for ladies. (Only exception being the YM)
5. Husbands should buy their wives men's watch. If the lady does not want it, that's another watch add to HIS collection. Right?

male watches are slightly larger,

size matters : )

Women with big wrist wears men size sports watch looks ok. But super small wrist like me (barely 5.1 inch), will look like I am wearing a clock and that is awful.

36mm is the maximum size I can take (already look like a mini clock on me), with lots of bracelet adjustments. Everytime I adjusted my bracelet, the dealer almost cried cos my wrist is soooo very tiny (kid's wrist) that he has to cut away even some permanent links. He cried everytime he dis that cos he pity the links.

Super tiny wrist people like me love big watches but due to our physical make up, many times we can only drool over "clocks" we would like to have on our wrists.

Frankly very small wrist is best suited with mid size like 31mm if we really want to go "big" size. The 36mm ones i wear at home cos already look like a mini clock.

Oh ladies size are meant for us super tiny wrists but then the face is so small that we will have problem looking at the time and date. So die die must at least get the mid size.

I notice a trend of more women wearing men's watch nowsadays. Many a times the watches wear much bigger than their wrists. I personally feel it's ok and stylo for women to wear men's watches. To be honest most iconic models are from the guys range and especially when they have some "history" and achievements to them. The ladies models normally look elegant or sweet generally which sometimes you get tired of them after a while. The guys watches, especially sports watches, have more details to admire and as mentioned many popular complications are only available in men's watches.

I have to say that I am guilty of taking a 2nd look on woman who wears men watches whenever I come across one. Not every woman dares to wear men watches and they need a certain level of confidence to carry them off. So far women whom I see wearing men's watches commonly displays an aura of character.

We buy, they wear. No cost to them lah.

36mm is the perfect size for certain watches. Eg Daydate.
It just cant be any other size.

Actually theres no need to imagine anything about going back.
36mm never left,

Haha

I agree, the 36mm is perfect for daydate. Rather I feel the daydate 2 looks weird haha.

The fact of the matter is that women can wear men's accessories no matter what, And still create a postive style for themselves.

As long as they maintain their feminity while doing so.
In fact that adds to the attractiveness.

Men on the other hand can never do the same (wearing a 26mm ladies watch for example) for he will look more than silly.

Thats why, women always have the advantage.
So who ever says men and women are equal?

Muayhahahahaha.

[Trinidad]

Yeah, its the big watches trend now. Can't imagine us going back to the 34-36mm days

Back to the topic: my best bet is because most discerning ladies who are watch enthusiast know full-well that men's model commands a stronger resale value.

Besides, the trend for watches now: the bigger the better. Who knows? People may revert to admiring 36mm again.

Classic never goes out, its the same or everything in this world.
