I'm ambivalent on the crossdressing thing.

If they are using it it as tool watch they don't really have a choice, but as for fashion it is quite inelegant.

For my personal taste, I like 34mm on women. I think it integrates some of the modern "oversize" contemporary trend with something that's classic. Think at some point in the future I may buy my SO a 34mm oyster perpetual

Spot on lol. I think my wife looks great in larger pieces and has great taste . She is a very classy woman as great taste in fashion. She dresses me as well ! Lol. I can’t wait to score her a Daytona I think it will look great on her. The other day we went to run errands she had on her Gucci shirt with green and requested to wear the hulk to match. What’s mine is yours !! Plus the benefit is if we share watches that means more watches for me!

My wife wore my SS Daytona before I traded it in. She didn't mind the size at all and said that it is in style for women to wear bigger watches these days.

Does this mean the large watch trend hasn't actually ended yet as some are hoping and wishing for

My wife isn't interested in any of my stainless steel models. She'll send me pics of precious metal watches in everose or factory diamond set. I'm like with the price of that I can get 3 or 2 of this.

I’m all for that. Sounds like she’d like a 16610LV black dial and less chunky?

I feel it usually looks better this way than when a wrist shot is posted. They seem to look bigger in a wrist shot.

My wife wears my Speedie. It looks good on her. I don't wear it any more. It just stopped calling to me for some reason. She's now eyeing up the Bluesy.

I bought my wife a 36mm Balon Bleu and she always claimed it was too small. It is technically a unisex watch. Now she has her 41mm DJ, blue dial, smooth bezel,oyster. I think both fit her fine. She is 5'10" and can carry it off. Wrist is a tad smaller than my 7" wrist, so 6 1/2" inch I would guess. Still says her favorite is her Hermes apple watch. Go figure.

To me women's watches are for women, men's watches are unisex.

I agree as well. Recently gifted my wife an Oyster Perpetual 39. She rocks it with a 5 3/4” wrist.

Personal I think a larger watch on a women accentuates their feminity, very sexy IMHO

Where I am from, I have seen more women wear a hulk than men. It really blew up in HK/China as a luxury fashion icon.
