Yea or Nay…?

Mar 25, 2023,12:19 PM

My last post was about shrinking my collection. And then this happened. I was visiting an AD which I hadn’t visited in a long time and asked them if they would have anything nice with steel gold for my wife. They had an Explorer I in steel gold available. But when I saw it I hesitated because my wife prefers men’s size watches. And then they said they had something else: a Two Tone Daytona with a white dial!!! Okay, not as special as a steel one but nevertheless a Daytona. So on the spot I decided to buy it. At home I showed it to my wife but quess what? She didn’t want it. She doesn’t like the yellowgold. So what to do? Wear it myself? I kinda like it myself. Love to hear your ideas. Is this or isn’t this a ladies watch…?

Yea or Nay

Let’s see if it does. If it is up to me: rightfully so!

Love watch. Enjoy!

I see many women wearing full gold Daytona, it doesn't make it a "lady's" watch,

By: MilDiver : March 25th, 2023-14:54

same as a Sub on a women, looks lovely, but dosn't mean its lady's watch. the Daytona is a great unisex watch.

I love men’s watches on women, in every colour!

By: One day just one watch : March 25th, 2023-16:37

It is up to you, my friend. If you like it, keep it.

By: amanico : March 25th, 2023-15:02

Tu as raison, j’aime bien!

By: One day just one watch : March 25th, 2023-16:39

Keep!!! :)

By: amanico : March 26th, 2023-14:16

Nothing to do with a ladies watch in my view, just a less popular version of an iconic model…but equally great looking and with a beautiful dial! I think you should be thankful both to your AD and your wife that it’s now yours!😂🥂

By: FabR : March 25th, 2023-16:02

That’s a nice way of looking at it! And you are right:

By: One day just one watch : March 25th, 2023-16:41

I have to thank my wife and AD for this opportunity.

Looks like a man's watch to me.

By: Thomas_3 : March 25th, 2023-16:11

My vote is yea!

Thank you for your Yea, a convincing one!

By: One day just one watch : March 25th, 2023-16:41

Under rated but a great watch for way less than Steel.

By: Bill : March 25th, 2023-17:52

It can work for women who wear both white and yellow gold jewelry. ...

So true! And I really like your Daytona with that gold/ champagne dial, gorgeous!

By: One day just one watch : March 25th, 2023-18:48

Just wear it as long as it gives a smile on your face.

By: Watchonthewrists : March 25th, 2023-19:51

That’s an excellent rule of thumb, thanks for that!

By: One day just one watch : March 26th, 2023-07:10

As a proud owner of the same model with champagne dial

By: christianch : March 26th, 2023-01:57

I would say keep it and wear it good health!

That makes us two proud owners! Thanks and same to you!

By: One day just one watch : March 26th, 2023-07:11

It’s certainly not a ladies watch.

By: Miles_151 : March 26th, 2023-07:55

And if you like it keep it and enjoy it. It does look good on your wrist. Any Daytona would look good though. Enjoy. M.

Strange though isn’t it, that the opinions of others

By: One day just one watch : March 26th, 2023-15:29

that are saying it’s a ladies watch can have such an effect on me. So thank you all for your comments, it should be all about if I like it and if so just wear and enjoy it to the fullest!
