The Top Five Women’s Watches Of 2019

You would never know it by today's bro-centric collectors' culture, but the wristwatch was originally invented for women, and it was worn almost exclusively by women for its first 100 years of existence - with the notable exception of Alberto Santos-Dumont, who wore his trusty Cartier while flying his plane After a century of being overtaken and overshadowed by an outstanding array of men's watches, women's time has come again Women's watches now come with purpose-built movements, intelligent design, and high end finish, making them every bit as collectible as men's.

Though we're already in January now, I want to think back on the women's watches we saw released last year, in 2019 The design is both ultra-contemporary and high-tech, with its front-and-center flying tourbillon escapement perched on top of the dial next to a time dial tilted at 50º under a domed sapphire, and, at the same time, stands as a tribute to traditional watchmaking The gold rotor is engraved as a sun motif - a life-giving force symbolic of women.

Montblanc introduced a new perpetual calendar movement, the MB 29.22, simultaneously in both men's and women's watches last year. . Source
