What Women Want - Men's Watches
Many luxury watch fellowships have started to re-think how they produce women's watches. In the past incorporate of years, style and fashion trends have changed, and women have opted for larger watches, causing the popularity and sales of smaller sized women's watches to fall.
Many luxury watch brands have either started to store their men's watches to women, or are adding female touches like extra make detail and costly stones to already popular men's watches. Take Rolex for example, they have just released a new Rolex Datejust with pastel-shaded dial in a 36mm man size, with or without diamonds. Kate Hudson has been spotted wearing it. Patek Philippe is another business that has remodeled a popular man's watch, in this case the Nautilus, to have a slightly softer shape, hoping to request for retrial to women.
Some watch brands may have concept that they would lose store share by not creating lines and collections just for women, but these days, it seems as though they're the hot brands. Take Panerai for example. This Italian watch business has been colse to since 1860 and has never veered far from the four or five basic models of watches it produces. Panerai watches are uncomplicated in design, most known for the oversized faces, no fancy stuff like diamonds found anywhere. Panerai has all the time only made men's watches, but watch (notice the play on words); women are going to start snatching these up, especially because Panerai watches are now more available in the U.S. Than ever before and have recently come out with less high-priced versions.
Iwc is another watch brand that since its founding in 1868, has all the time just produced men's watches. Although masculine in design, many Iwc collections, specifically the Big Pilots and the Ingenieur lines, have retained a loyal following, including women who like strong seeing men's watches.
Another new trend among luxury watches, this one possibly more dictated by consumers' tighter purse strings than whatever else, is the drop off in ask for watches that have lots of "bling." Naturally, the more diamonds or other costly stones that a watch has, the more high-priced it is. The price of metals has a lot to do with how brands need to price their watches, so if the price of stainless steel has gone up, then the price of an all stainless steel watch has to reflect that. Right now, the price of gold has sky-rocketed, to the point where "gold buyers" have popped up on every road corner it seems. Hence, another trend which is generally found in men's watches, but which women have gravitated to, is those larger, sportier watches that come with black rubber straps. Personally, I love this look on a woman, which is why classic men's sport's watches like the Bvlgari Diagono have never and will never go out of style.
In fact, this black rubber look has come to be so hot that the use of hi-tech materials such as ceramics, titanium, carbon fiber and Pvd coating are rising in popularity. Although so coarse now, Hublot was the first business to produce a black rubber strap as seen in a luxury watch. Although by no means inexpensive, the Big Bang by Hublot has been a coveted watch by those who can afford it for years. The Big Bang comes in both a men's and women's version.
So, it's easily quite uncomplicated to sass the age-old question: what do women want? When it comes to watches, the sass is: a man's watch. If you're a man, be prepared to hand yours over.
