Remember, most women consider a watch as a jewelry accessory. Lots of them are wearing overhanging lugs. A high fashion lady I know wears a 44mm Breitling Chrono. Looks large but is the current style.

This made literally lol.

Congrats to you both. I'm curious about the back story though. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if the watch is actually for you and she's punking you, that'd be fun.

A five digit Sub would look better in her, but alas they never made a green beauty like this.

I am on list for a Hulk so hopefully get one in the next 6 months.
Quite a few comments on here claiming the Submariner is a man’s watch. I may be wrong here but these watches in my understanding aren’t gender specific.

It’s a great find and looks good on her! One of my favourite watches.

IMO women wear Subs very well and they work just fine for casual situations. The idea that a woman must wear a small watch such as a Lady DJ or a DJ36 is a bit outdated.
Let’s be honest. It’s too big. I’m 6ft and 75kg. If I wore Anthony Joshua’s tee shirt do you think it would look big on me? Or would it be outdated to say it looks too big?

I don't care what sex wears what watch. It just has to look appropriately fitted.
There was a post of a guy who just bought a CHNR and it looked huge on his petite wrists.
You have wear the watch not the other way around.

Oversized for a black tie and gown event lol yes, but as a casual watch not at all. If you think this, you must think no man but Dwayne Johnson could wear a DSSD.

Awesome, very cool. My girlfriend also likes to wear traditionally men sized watches. She wears my speedy often and my hulk occasionally as well.

That’s just not a true statement in 2018

oh, I didnt know she said she gets it from an AD until now. but the fact is you cant even get into a waitlist unless you are a VIP of an AD. may be she has a very good relationship with the AD, otherwise it would be impossible.
