If women are watch fans there is no reason they shouldn't wear any watch they want. When it comes down to it, there are a lot of guys on this forum (and in general) that have very small arms and wrists and a Sub or SD looks huge on them. I bet anyone that has to take links out of their band would qualify. I bet the main issue is that the guys who have a mid-size or unisex watch just feel bad that people will now think they are wearing a woman's watch.

I love my women petite, with big watches and small eyes!

Seriously, any woman with an appreciation for fine watches is a definite eye catcher for me. As for watch size, I've seen some very petite women wear PAMs and look absolutely gorgeous. I think it's more the attitude rather than the watch size that pulls it off.

Of course, if a woman walks around with her fly open, I really wouldn't care what watch she was wearing.

So is it safe to assume that your wife wears boxers?

I agree that 40mm is a women's watch.

39.5mm, on the other hand, is super-manly.

Last night I tried my air-king on my wife and asked her how she liked it. She said it looks like a mans watch. So I guess I should not even try the sub on her wrist.

I think mens watches look great on women at least from the pics I have seen on Rolex forms.

I know you weren't talking to me; but I live in the Tokyo area and I see YG Daytonas in the wild from time to time; but they aren't selling them used for $3500 either; so they're a bit rare.

I wear mine "in the wild." It lets me show my feminine side.

Didn't anyone give you the memo that no matter how big a watch you may want to wear, it's not going to make anything else look that much more impressive?
