Icon5 Decrease Submariner size for female?

I think will be interesting if Rolex decrease size for submariner to attract females? Size like somewhere between 34mm-38mm?
Imagine how the look of submariner would be? Is doable right?

How you folks think?

Don't think it's necessary. To me, ladies look great wearing the Sub as is.

Try a nice Explorer I at 36mm, no waiting. The perfect watch right away.

I think the one in the link is probably 35, despite the description.

Tudor used to make a Lady-Sub (about 28mm) a Mini-Sub (about 33mm) and mid size just called the Submariner (about 35mm) and a 40mm Submariner. Here's a pic I found just now, and a pic of my wife's Mini-Sub and my Rolex 5513.

They all have Rolex Oyster cases and even the acrylic crystal models will go twice as deep as modern Rolex sports watches like the Explorer and GMT-Master.

My wife won't wear a Sub (we looked at the WG w/blue dial this weekend) but she craves my Daytona, which she will inherit when I'm gone.

How does it look on her wrist? Big or just right?

Looks like a great gift idea. SS Daytona for the wifey would suit your Platona
