Jenni Elle: "Here's Why Women Don't Like Watches"

"Here's Why Women Don't Like Watches"

Jenni Elle offers a brilliantly superb overview of the history of women wearing wristwatches...I wrote a story in the past named "The Rolex Woman: The Evolution Of The Female Rolex Archetype" which includes a fascinating 1970 Stephanie Powers Rolex that Jenni Elle mentions...



The only thing I would add to Jenni's story is the significant Rolex Rolex played in popularizing women wearing watches and men's watches in particular begging in the early 1960s with Honor Blackman (pictured below) who costarred with Sean Connery in the 1964 James Bond movie, Goldfinger.
