Chronus Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 Today I was on Finchley Road in London and was going to Swiss Cottage tube station and saw a blonde Eastern European beauty sporting an oversized watch on her small wrist. I had on a PAM036 and this one looked much bigger, maybe even closer to 49mm! Looked very oversized but somehow it worked. The watch looked like a typical fashion watch in any old store though with large writing across the centre of the dial. No idea what it is. Anyway, more girls are wearing big watches now? Size matters? Ooooou Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chronus Posted August 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 No, it had writing stretching from 9 o'clock to 3 o'clock going through the centre where the hands would be fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chronomat123 Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 I rather like the trend myself. I gave my little sister my genuine TAG heuer S/el (the one everyone used to wear back in the 90s with the y links) because she never stopped asking me to wear it. It was kind of girly, though, as it had a salmon/pinkish dial, but it was a full size mens. She wears it everyday now. And loves it. And I'm getting a rep "Beach" Daytona in pink for my girlfriend when I put my next order in with Andrew. I sized my MBW 1680 to fit her because she loves it even more than I do. She's got thin bony wrists and it looks hot on her. But I want it back. I think Rolex EXP1s and Subs look super hot on chicks. BTW, I just got a gen Breitling Headwind (the day-date). Man, I love it. All satin finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quarks Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 Bought her a PP24. She thinks that is alright - nothing fantastic. *scratches head* She then starting browsing Panerai website. Spotted a watch that caught her eye. Not a 40mm. Nope, not a 44mm either. A 47mm!! PAM217 destro... Mmmkay. I thought maybe it is just the pictorial. She tries on my gen. 111, nope. Doesnt do anything. She likes it but prefer destro and the look of the Marina Militare. Insisted on a 217, got that for her and BAM. She loves it. How funny. But now she has another one - PAM049. Both looks wonderful on her. She still thinks very highly of her 217 tho, definitely getting more wrist time than any other watches - and she loves winding it! Oh how can u not adore her!
