I own this watch, it's a beautiful watch and one of my favourites. This appears to be an ATL. I purchased for $355 recently.
Plus it's an eco drive , sapphire glass and a good size for most wrists.

Sure, I suppose some women with a thing for big watches might love to sport a 43mm watch on their wrists, more power to them.
Would be heavy when it hits my cheeks
Which ones?
Whats a unisex?
It's what tertiary students get up to
That is Uni-Sex
I never went to uni so I guess I'll never know.
Unisex watches - for those trying to get their masters in hor-ology …
Looks unisex because of Color.
yes I agree!
thanks for saying it so I don’t have to. 😅
apparently the official stance on watches is all of them are unisex.
but this one is masculine because of the complicated smaller dials but the pastel desaturated colour is feminine. so right on the fence. 🤗
So is it similar to some men not wearing pink shirts? This big watch is a blue pastel colour that a man wouldn't wear?
FWIW, I have this watch and the colour isn't as blue as seen in the photos , it's a lot lighter and looks brilliant in sunlight. Now maybe if the dial had been a shade of light pink I'd agree..

um typo? do yo mean So is it similar to some men wearing pink shirts? This big watch is a blue pastel colour that a man wouldn't wear? or So is it similar to some men not wearing pink shirts? This big watch is a blue pastel colour that a man would wear?.
I am agreeing it's unisex. so it works both on masculine and feminine side. just my opinion. if I had to I lean more towards masculine simply because I think complicated face is more on the side of not being feminine.
colour is less of a factor for me than most people I think. black and white tones are more my thing because subtle. you could also think of black as masculine or white as feminine, or the other way around. personally if I saw a M/F couple wearing pastel blue and pink shirts, I think pink looks better on the man and blue on the woman.
@zxcvb: maybe you didn't make a typo then. in my head they were choosing one colour over the other. 🤔
also not a watch person btw. just my opinion observing all these watch posts and their different styles.
@n3ck3ntry8bort0rgasm: No I didn't. I've seen some men never wear pink and others wear it all the time.
I guess if you are secure in your masculinity you wear what you like, what makes you happy, regardless of gender. These are interesting takes though.
Waiting for real owners' feedback. Is it accurate with its calender ?
So far it's been. Define accurate?
Like every single watch in existence that uses a date wheel, and doesn't have a perpetual calendar function, it rotates through days 1-31 every single month. So every non-31 day month you will have to reset the date. This means one of two things:
- you never bother resetting it because you either don't care about reading the date off your watch, you get sick of changing it, or your eyesight isn't good enough read the tiny date window even if you did
- you reset the date every month that requires it, because you enjoy fiddling with your watches or you are OCD about it
like the date is correct. My other ones with date always shows a day too late or too early, never know how to adjust it to tell the accurate date.
You need to read the manual (RTFM) to set the date. It will always go to the 31st so if there's not 31 days in that month you will need to manually adjust it.
You can always pony up for a perpetual calendar watch.
Absolutely. In some models, esp with the day and date complication like the v158 for eg, you cannot adjust the day when the time is between certain hours. If you do so, you'll end up damaging the movement.
For these chronographs esp please make sure you read the manual or watch videos before you attempt any adjustments.

Will I have to do this for my Apple Watch?
No, but you have to charge your Apple watch every couple of days, rather than reset a date once every two months.

Actually it needs to be charged every day. Luckily I don't like wearing a watch to bed, and the charger is right where I would put a watch when I go to sleep.
Nice colour, I'm wearing something similar: https://files.ozbargain.com.au/upload/446913/118155/edifice.…
Any recommendations on a womens watch with saphire crystal. Not fussed if auto, solar or quartz. Under $300.
It's 2024, all watches are women's watches but if you're after something of a certain style & size it would narrow it down?
Something up to 34mm amd as simple as possible. Maybe I'll just go with this unless anybother recommendations.

For that kind of money or less you could buy a Citizen Eco-Drive (solar) & wouldn't have to worry about battery replacements every few years.
I can't find a Citizen ladies page anymore at Starbuy so you'll just have to look through all of them. I would suggest to wait for the weekend sale which starts at 6pm Fridays, something might come up.
Thanks mate. There was a citizen eco drive that caught my eye but out of stock. I'll have alool at the weekend specials.

Personally I think the blue is heaps better, wearing it right now, the black looks meh, however good for those wanting a masculine non unisex watch with pastel colours.
