This threads getting very manly, 300lb lesbians included of course

Anyway i honestly think people should wear what they want without judgment, it's what makes you happy that counts, and if it's a big or little watch go for it

Good heavens - how awful to have to go around hearing women scream "lesbian!" to you all day!

Ellen, will you please get your wife a big, clunky watch?

Come on, Rolexgiants. Who really has the "complex" about this?

I saw a 5 ft tall, petite Japanese woman wearing a 44 mm Panerai the other day and she and the watch looked great together. It looked like Panerai designed it for her; so you'd better go for at least 45 mm to make sure you're wearing a man's watch.

Rolex introduced the Beach Daytona line and the Leopard model Daytona in the last ten years. Does that mean Rolex now considers the Daytona to be a ladies model?

Let me be the first to say I love Lesbians Lipstick lesbians not butch lesbians. I don't want to see a woman wearing plaid, smoking cigars, or wearing big 44mm and above watches. Course some will and have to disagree, do I care? Nope, do as you will. But if your a slim, sexy, and in shape woman and think that 60mm watch looks good on you well sorry but your fooling yourself.

Well, then, that must make it so.

So, except for the YM II, the Deep Sea, the DD II, and the DJ II, there are no more Rolex men's watches? But then again, those watches are probably too small for you to consider them manly.

yes, because watch choices usually = sexual orientation. Maybe I'm a lesbian and I don't know any better

I've heard a lot of dumb things on this forum but that one probably takes the cake.


Like many have said, it's all up to the wearer. My dad had always said "bluesy" would be too big for him, and he stuck with mid-size Tags. He even considered buying the mid-size YM. But once he put it on, he said it wasn't as big as he thought and loved it. But his smaller watches always looked great on him, because he wore them with confidence and pride.

I think 60 is taking it a bit far....

And who is the judge of what looks good? Here's me with my SD and I think it looks damn good

No offense jen your a attratctive women no doubt. But really it is to big on your arm, thats just the reality, not an insult. But wear what you like. I would think a mid-sized YM would look much nicer on your wrist or a ladies DJ, but whatever you like wear and be happy.
