Wow, amazing story that makes it even more unique! Not bad as a 60th birthday gift!!👍🥂
How many guys here have bought a woman’s watch? as a gift or perhaps even to wear yourself
due to size or color options not available on a man’s model? Cazalea ...
Ladies Datejust is a safe choice, and a winner for sure
Here’s one of the nicer watches I got for my wife: an IWC Portofino with white gold case, patterned dial and satin strap. ...
nice choice as well...
btw, to answer your second question: Yes, i could easily wear her watch as it is 36mm and with my slim wrist, its just perfect. Cheers
Hello dear Mike! My answer is: many times… for my wife and…
… for my daughter. Not always a “woman’s watch” as both ladies like some gentlemen watches as well. Here a few I got pictures because not always took shots of them. Wife Panerai due 38 mm For my daughter: Doxa asub 200 And her Santos Wifey‘s ladies Pasha ...
Actually only once…when I was a pro photographer
I was dating a model. I bought her a Baume Catwalk. We subsequently broke up soon after. We ran into each other at a friends photo shoot. She offered to give the watch back but of course I wouldn’t take it as it was a gift.
I do it all the time!
My small wrist is comfortable with 33 to 35mm sizes. My 7200R London Edition classified as a ladies watch at 34.6mm My incoming 3878J at 31.5mm although this was never classified as a ladies watch ...
That 3878J is a real gem in the current market Sham, simply spectacular! ;-)
PS: And yes, I'm pretty sure this was never intended or advertised as a Ladies' watch ;-) Cheers.
I was most fortunate Fabrizio with the 3878J
as I had spotted it at the Patek Salon in London 4 years ago. It was a cancelled order for a special customer so this could be the only 3878J with a Patek seal since it was discontinued in 1998. My AD in the UK has kindly kept it in its safe for the last ...
I have a somewhat similar Credor platinum skeleton
Honestly never thought of having / letting my wife wear it though ...
That is a gorgeous skeleton watch Mike!
Thanks for sharing and it looks very at home on your wrist!
Beautiful Credor!
I have a soft spot for the brand and this is an exquisite example of their artistic watches!
As a gift of course yes, but despite the current (and rather predictable) trend towards unisex (all-gender?) watches....never for myself! ;-)
My girlfriend is actually a customer at Van Cleef (jewelry, not watches) so we often visit the boutique and look at their offering, and I confess that on rare instance I've been tempted by some of their artistic models....but never gave in yet! Cheers. ...
Very jelly of you and especially your girlfriend!
Those watches look great on you, you should totally buy it!
Many thanks, the one that seriously tempted me of these two was in fact that on the left with a sky motive, a real Ladies piece by any standard but also a good expression of VCA's message (in the other the enamel is honestly too far from Patek's)...
Maybe one day, as I'm certainly not shy when it comes to my watch or wardrobe decisions! ;-))
I think that one is a better one too !!
Yay......not as good as Patek or other watch makers lol 😂 and not something that i would buy from them, like it is not their expertise like how i would not buy an artisen watch from rolex lol
Beauty❣️ Many of thouse romantic and dreamy kind of vCaA watches! They really are the trend-setters in this sector.
Unfortunately 1) mostly very expensive 2) many woman would rather want a more neutral watch and 3) to your 2. question, from a society perspective still kind of unwearable for men… Would I wear it myself? No. Am I facinated about it? Absolutely! Also the ...
Interesting question!!
I have liked many women watches, especially those by Van Cleef but also others like there was this one Urwerk that was quite attractive and a diamond debethune (actually to my knowledge, currently owned by a guy ). I think it is a very interesting discuss...
