Are there any special watches women love? If you’re a man, you’ve wondered this many times.
And there’s even a good chance you’ve wanted to buy a watch specifically because you thought it would help you get laid.
I live near a big luxury shopping mall, and you’ll see bankers and businessmen buying all kinds of wrist-wear “for the ladies.” And while there is no denying that most women do like a good watch, the brands and styles they’re attracted to will surprise you.
In this article we’ll look at watches women love, and some common mistakes men make when buying a timepiece that’s meant to get attention.
Let’s start with a big reveal.
Ready?
99% Of Women Know NOTHING About Watches
Do you know anything about lipstick shades or dress cuts?
Probably not.
At most, you’ve heard of some popular brands and can tell when a girl looks good in a particular outfit.
The same concept is true for women, but with men’s watches.
Here’s a little secret: A nice, expensive timepiece only attracts other watch guys. Most women do not care about movement type, minor bezel details, or dial finish.
I own a real Jaeger-LeCoultre and a $15 fake Rolex.
Guess which watch gets more attention?
And this happens in almost every country or social setting. Even in the USA, that $15 Rolex gets way more compliments and interest.
It’s a recognizable name, and one associated with status.
When you’re buying a watch to impress girls, stressing over the movement or mechanical features is almost irrelevant.
Instead of worrying about these details, consider the following.
The Watches Women Love Are Almost Always Based On Brand Name Or Flash
Since most women aren’t watch lovers, what type of wrist-wear do they like?
From my observation, it’s whatever’s trendy right now. Or whatever they’re familiar with.
In other words, brand names or the visible exterior.
Basically how your timepiece looks will trump how it functions.
Name brands and flash are especially big overseas. Many of the “tacky” watches (like Hublot or Panerai) are considered cool and stylish.
Asia, South America, and the Middle East all love big attention grabbers.
And that’s the style local women like too.
Case in point, one of my neighbors in Vietnam just decided to upgrade watches. His “dress watch” is an iced out Daytona that’s too gaudy for most rappers.
Yet that’s fashionable here.
Now if it sounds like you need a Hublot Big Bang or Audemars Royal Oak to get laid, don’t worry.
The amount you spend isn’t as important as the overall style.
And with this in mind, here are two reasonably priced timepieces I recommend.
Two Affordable Watch Suggestions
If you’re looking for a big, flashy watch, get yourself an INVICTA Pro Diver.
(This Is A Large, Noticable Watch)
They’re big, they’re flashy, and they look like a Rolex Submariner on steroids. All while costing less than $100.
Plus, they are waterproof. Making them great for wearing at the beach or pool parties.
You’re getting the same over-sized “In Your Face” look as a Panerai watch, without $5,000 price tag. If you’re just looking for something which catches women’s attention, the INVICTA Pro Diver is perfect.
My second recommendation is the Orient Bambino.
It’s a little more classy and a dress watch. Plus, it has a subtle yet attractive design. This watch isn’t too loud, but still commands a presence, naturally drawing attention to itself.
(This Is A Sleek Looking Piece)
This is another affordable watch (costing less than $200), but appears way more expensive. Personally, I think the Orient Bambino is even better looking than the Patek Philippe Calatrava. And the Calatrava is a $10,000 watch.
The Orient Bambino is a naturally attractive dress watch. And one which looks just as nice (if not better) than its higher priced alternatives.
Closing Thoughts
Buying a subtly crafted timepiece is nice, if you’re getting it for yourself.
However, the watches women find sexy are way different from the wrist-wear most watch enthusiasts like.
If you’re hitting up clubs or going to parties, get something big and flashy like the INVICTA Pro Diver.
When you’re out during the day or some place quiet, choose something with a classy but attractive look. Like the Orient Bambino.
And lastly, I want to stress this again, the price you’re spending on a watch really doesn’t matter to 99.9% of girls.
A stylish $200 watch gets you more attention than a boring $20,000 piece.
Keep this in mind while you’re browsing watches.
P.S. If you’re interested in the Orient Bambino, I recommend its green face model. It’s very eye-catching.

Dude, good tips and that Oriental is sick.
What’s your thoughts on the $500 – $1000 watch range? Good deals or go cheap until your ready for prestige?
Rob says
Most of those watches don’t seem to go up in value and aren’t much different from a $100 or $300 alternative.
You’re probably better off saving an extra $400 – $500 and buying a used luxury watch.
Cartier has some really nice options for $1,200 – $2,700 used.
And those retain their value better.
