Hi, first of all, congratulations, this site is all about love for watches. My name is Filipe and I’m from Portugal. I’ve been learning a lot in this site and also enjoying the beautiful posted photos. I have a really small collection, a Rolex OP39 rhodiu...

Your Patek is truly lovely, I always had a mindset where the male/female distinction in watchmaking is almost always besides the point/superfluous, so your choice is, in my opinion, totally appropriate and really well fitting! I hope you enjoy the high-qu...

Thanks for your kind words. I will try to contribute as I’m still learning a lot. But watches are a real passion and I must agree that the male/female distinction is really in our heads. I must add that I have only waited 4 months to get the watch so, the...

my mother always told me she thought of 'male' watch designs far more favorably than the ones which are generally intended for the female market. She would much rather wear a classical 'men's' watch as opposed to the mostly obnoxiously designed 'women's' ...

Takes a real man to confidently wear a woman's watch

Your have a good collection, and I also know big collectors who have purchased ladies' Nautilus because they have small wrists. This reference looks great on you and we look forward to more of your posts !

and honestly if you didn’t say otherwise, I was thinking it was a 3800 when I first saw it. Excellent choice either way, because it fits you perfectly.

 
 By: filipe : May 15th, 2022-09:38
Thanks. It’s really difficult to catch in photo the real beauty of the watch.

perfect size for your wrist

Totally agree. Thank you.

Hello Filipe, I prefer this to the 'gents' watch as I like the positioning of the date. With 16.5cm wrists this is also one I have considered in the past. It looks good.

Me too. thanks ...  

Warm welcome to our community, Filipe!

didn’t get sidetracked by inconsequential labels. And by the way historically 35mm was not only considered a men’s watch it was often referred to as being a large men’s watch. Eg the classic men’s Calatrava Ref 96 was only 31mm. The “large” version Ref 57...

Hi If I may ask, does anyone had problems with hair pinching with nautilus bracelet? I find it a little painful and I don´t know if it´s common or if I should take it to the store. The size fits great, so in don´t think is a matter of resize it, but this ...
