The Daytona is now a unisex watch. I received my annual AD's Christmas catalogues and the men's is all watches, the ladies jewellery and watches. In the ladies the Daytona is being worn by a female model. Daytona II will have to come out in due course at 42mm for greater choice for men.

Although the Daytona is a 40mm, I find it wears smaller than a SubC or GMTIIC.
LOL it's going to be tough to get out of this one Mark, GJ |

No, in order do do this I would have to get rid of these :
And I don't want to do that. BUT, I could keep these !! It's to big for her, I think she understands this. I still believe even though its a fashion thing for women to wear a big size watch, I let her try on my TT GMTc and she kinda agrees the DAYTONA would be kinda big for her. So maybe a midsize Ladies Rose Gold Date-Just would be more fitting for her. So I may get out of this small problem after all, and just sell her TT Date-Just and scrounge up some scratch for just the Rose Gold Daytona for me and not sell off a bunch of mine. It's her girlfriends fault, it's kinda like Texas, but its Brasil, everything is bigger in both of those 2 countries. LOL. I have a few weeks to think about it. I'm going to Portland and then Berkeley next week for some basketball games, gives me a chance to figure out a game plan on this. Sorry to drag you guys into this

If she likes a larger watch, then maybe the 34mm Pearlmaster could be an option?

Tbh I think a Daytona is great for a woman. If I won the lottery (which would be hard because I don't play it) then I would buy a Daytona for my gf.

I see yg or rg daytonas on women at least once a day.
That said, I do live in Miami so every one has wayyyyy Too much to spend. I'm also pretty sure at least half The women wearing them believe its a glorified bracelet. I've asked a few about them and gotten some laughable Responses. |

When I was in the Apple store in Memphis I saw a woman wearing a stainless steel daytona. She was attractive before but there was something about her wearing that Daytona (being large for her and all) that really made her sexy. Can't really pinpoint it.
Get her the rose gold and you a stainless. I prefer the Houseboss monniker myself. My home might be my kingdom but I have a boss who controls it.

My wife put my Daytona on the other day and decided that rather then sell it I should give it to her.
Who could argue. |

It's not too big. She has excellent taste. Sell the oldies and get what she's telling you. The new ones look awesome.
