Dude Wearing A Woman's Rolex

C'mon guys, if Tyler (Aerosmith fame) can wear a woman's Rolex, so can you ! ! !

So, let me ask, would you wear a woman's Rolex? - any? - post a pic of one you would wear. Women are always wearing a man's Rolex. I'm looking now for my first man's Rolex (vintage - 1920s - small face).

Steven Tyler is wearing the Woman's Leopard Daytona. It's real ! ! !

Not entirely true... A few of my Asian counterparts wear mid sized Rolex timepieces! To be honest it does not look bad on them!

It's funny, but i've never considered that Daytona a ladies watch. Loud/garish yes, but feminine not so much What about it makes it a woman's watch?

But to answer your question, no i wouldn't wear a woman's size rolex, though if i could pull off that one i would definitely wear it

This

I remember when I was about 13 I received acupuncture as a last resort treatment for a sports injury and my acupuncturist (male) wore a midsize Rolex and it definitely didn't look out of place on his wrist

Seriously though, there is not article of clothing, jewelry, or anything else for that matter that Tyler has on in that picture that I would wear. Ladies Rolex included.

I think the Leopard Daytona is a cool mens watch and would wear it if I could afford to buy it.

I have a friend who wears a woman's Patek 4937, he changed the strap from white to black. To be honest the 37mm size looks quiet good on him.

I've considered buying a "womans" JLC Reverso even though I'm 6'3, 190lbs with a 7.5 inch wrist and fairly "macho". Despite JLC releasing a 1931 homage to the original it is modern sized. The watch that is truly closest to the original MANS SPORTS WATCH is now listed as a womans watch because of the size!?!?

Times change but I like things Old-Skool.

Hey if you can get away with bedezzaled jeans and boots, then why not?

I for one can not, therefore - no Rolex women's models in my scope.

I have had a few Asian clients buy 31mm ladies Rolex models. They say they are to small to wear a midsize and in Asia it is very common for males to wear 31mm model.

To each his own I guess...

He's wearing a full size. Looks good on him. I thought you were talking 31mm size.

I think that unless a man has very small wrists, a woman's watch will look pretty small. As noted, that leopard Daytona is 40mm though the styling certainly seems aimed at women.

i think there are two possible reasons/assumptions that are running around in this thread that make what might constitute a "woman's watch"

first is the size assumption, that maybe 31mm or smaller constitutes a woman's watch

second is the jeweled assumption, that maybe a watch with diamonds or jewls constitutes a woman's watch


well, the first I might agree, but the second I totally disagree, but a lot do not disagree, so I don't quite know, but I'd say mr. tyler there is wearing a man's watch, even if it might match my aunt's purse...
