Poll

What do you think of a Female wearing a "Man's" watch? (you can pick more than one!)

		I think women should stick to the smaller watches, made for them.
		I like it; shows that they know what's good.
		I really don't care - I'm indifferent; to each his/her own.
		I think it's sexy.
		I think it looks like Ellen Degeneres.
		I think it depends on their wrist's diameter.
		They should keep it under 40mm case diameter.
		It's okay, but only if she is a professional diver.
		It intimidates me, and makes me question my own masculinity.
		I wouldn't mind, per se, but I would constantly try to sway her to the smaller sizes.

I just recently bought my sister a semi-large (42mm with crown) "Man's" watch. Then while flipping through the channels, I noticed Ellen Degeneres wore a man's watch; this didn't surprise me for some reason. It went well with the rest of her clothes.

So, I am curious - what kind of girls wear large watches? Will my sister be heckled and laughed at and called weird, if she wears the Tissot LeLocle I got her?

What do you all think of this? It's not like "cross-dressing", or is it? I guess it would be even more controversal to see a man wearing a tiny "woman's" watch... That's a whole 'nother poll though.

Can a woman with a large watch still be "feminine"? What if she always wore it, with evening gowns and other fancy clothes?

I've heard that the larger automatic watches are more efficient, because the rotor can be bigger and heavier. I've heard that ladies autos never stay charged.

Personally, I think it really depends on what the woman likes. For instance, my mom and I have the same type of wrist. She likes small (22mm) watches where I like bigger watches (38mm+). Also, it depends on the size of the woman. I think that a thin girl wearing anything more than a 38mm would seem monstrous but a larger woman wearing a tiny watch would look just as funny.

As for wearing it with an evening gown, not many women wear anything but jewels when they wear an evening gown BUT if they did...I would imagine they would wear something similar to what a man would wear if he was in a tuxedo. A watch that looked elegant, I wouldn't imagine a woman walking around with a diver watch on though.

I agree....and it also depends on the style or "dress" of the moment. What goes with an evening gown orwhat goes with a business suit is different thatn what goes with jeans and a sweater (for example..a large diver MAY go very well with that)...I'll have to differ to tny, our resident fashion guru!!!!
