His post offers a unique perspective on the evolving landscape of luxury watch collecting, particularly the blurring lines between traditionally masculine and feminine designs.

Got the call, but it’s not for me but congrats to my boss…Happy wife, Happy life šŸ˜…, just in time for Mother’s Day.

However….if guys can wear the 5713/1G or the latest super exclusive green Nautilus with rocks….maybe I should steal it, lol….a little small for my liking but…tempting.

Size is a little small but still 35.2mm from 10-4 o’clock…same 324 S C movement with 5711 and actually better placement of date windows at 6 o’clock with the frame.

There is a new feature of the fold over clasp which says fine adjustments of 2-4mm….still have to figure this out.














Me wearing it.

in Carmel few years ago Yes, too little ladies watches here and it’s difficult for the category to take off, hence I think brands are doing Unisex size this year.

I got the white dial 5726 for old age eyes prevention…not too late, as the white dial is the least favorable of the 3 colors among Specollectors so your wallet don’t have to suffer much šŸ˜œšŸ˜…

Thank you V. The 7118/1200A has a newer fold over clasp than the 7118/1A, much better than the old style.
