I Just Ordered Myself A New Watch! What Do You Think Of It?

well, most ladies are rather dainty, not the roomie, she always has to get men's watches to see them too -

hey - great going getting those extra miles!

Nice watch. I have at least 12 watches at home, and I am not wearing any...because none is working. I have 3 modern and the rest are vintage...I have to sell them all, because I no longer need them...

Hmmm...I dunno it's a good question. Sorry to hear about your watch but, it sounds like you got your money's worth LOL

pretty:)

i guess they figure women wouldn't want a bigger watch.
my mom had one with a face that wasn't much larger than a nickel.i wondered how she could see that thing.

Sometimes if you go to unusual places.....clothing stores or small FUN jewelry stores and not the big name ones, you can find "fun" watches that have the bigger faces on them that are easier to see and could be colorful and/or fashionable besides. But glad that you find one that works for you.

I like it:) When i could wear a watch I used to like those small ones with tiny numbers and all. My mom used to laugh at me and ask me if I could really read the numbers to know what time it was. But I really did. Now I guess i would have trouble even seeing the watch LOL
Your choice is a good one, and the watch looks great:)

Well, whatever makes you happy my friend. If you found
a men's watch that serves the purpose why not?

You're right, your new watch doesn't look like your husband at all!!:)

I think watches are considered "mens" or "ladies" because of the size. You know the stereotypes that women are suppose to be little & petite, so they make watches for ladies smaller. I'm glad you don't pay attention to things like that & you choose what best serves your needs.

So you wore your watch out after 11 years. You better tell your husband to be careful. You've got what, 2 years worn off him already??:)

I have always preferred men's watches, as the bands are bigger and fit my wrists. I have a nice one that showed up in the front yard a few years back, laying under the bushes. I like to buy stuff when it earns me stuff. It is a win win deal.

Glad you found something you like. I am not sure why they gender watches, I think its because a man watch says something about him like a timepiece did back in the day. Watches for men have always been big, Grandfather clocks are huge, Big Ben is named after a guy too. I think ladies see watches an accessory and guys see them as a statement. At least that is what the retailers think.
