LADIES WATCHES

Rebecca Ross, Christie’s Watches specialist, “In addition to what are traditionally referred to as ‘ladies watches,’ which usually have smaller faces and are often bejeweled, we have been seeing more women buying unisex timepieces previously reserved for men. Larger dials, less embellishments, and more substance. A few favorite examples—from the delicate to the durable—are included below.”
