greekgod Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 Dear members, Without getting sexist and politically incorrect ... I was wondering whether this niche hobby is confined mostly to men? Would the older members have a better idea as to what the boy:girl ratio is on here? I am sure they produce as many womens watches as they do for men, however the amount of reps for girls is far less than that of men on most of the leading trade site associated to the forum.

cougar1 Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 Not politically incorrect at all, there are a few of the females around on watch forums but it is a rarity. Two things, 1. Women, don't exactly appreciate watches per se, they do however like shiny things and brand names (hence the watch market for them!) 2. Women don't have the attention span to appreciate automatic movements, they are not technically minded enough to be dealing with them, hence they are quartz people pure and simple.

Whatever123 Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 Most women are more into jewelry than watches. For men a watch is mostly the only accesoire they wear. Personally I don't know one woman who cares about watches... Additionally, one of the most important things in the rep game is modding which isn't a girl's thing as well I guess. Any women here at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave123 Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 Mainly men on watch forums,the odd woman here and there.. Its like going to a purse forum and asking the ``sex ratio`` there,it will always be full of women and the odd guy from France.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superlative Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 You can't wear watches on your feet so woman can notice them and be envious at a distance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
