TT Daytona spotted on mom...

Today my daughter's school hosted a student art show... on my way in I spotted a jeans-and-tee clad mom sporting a yellow gold/steel white dial Daytona. I caught up with her inside and complimented her timepiece. She said she's always liked big watches, and that her husband is a collector.

I must say, it's the first time I've seen locally a woman wearing a full sized man's watch, let alone a Daytona, up close. Oklahoma City isn't exactly the style capital of the world.... It looked fabulous and very stylish on her. She was tall and thin and carried it off well.

i live in collinsville ok, you are right, okc isn't the fashion capital of the world but there is allot of old oil money there. if you go to brick town you can see just about everything you can imagine on a nice day. lol

a daytona is the sexiest watch i have ever seen on a women.

Sorry! I think I would have scared her if I'd even had my camera with me and tried to take a pic.... she might have thought some weirdo woman was stalking her or something.... on second thought, if her hubby's a collector, then I bet she knows all about crazy watch people!

I never would have noticed her watch; now her breasts is another story. Yes Lisa, I am still a DOM. Sort of like a Pom, but stands for Dirty Old Man.

Very cool. A few months ago I spied a woman wearing a man's TT datejust on a red and blue nylon nato type strap. Very stylish.

I heard somewhere that fashionable Italian men were wearing women's datejusts loose like bracelets.

Oh, well. More testosterone for the rest of us....

What's a Pom?

Oh, yes, I noticed her breasts, too - I'm rather short, and they were eye-level to me.

Better bring the good zoom lens, that way you can keep distance AND get the good shots. A Win-Win

Karis, you never know... maybe it would grow on you. I'm telling you, it looked great with jeans. And her big princess cut diamond, too!
