Watches?

Apples Mk.II

Morning.

Lately I have found another weird issue: I hate most of my watches! I used to love them, as big as they could get, but now they just feel manly and oversized. I started with a men's Lotus watch that now feels outdated and out of fashion, and a pocket watch for really formal occasions. With time I moved to a  gigantic Casio G-Shock that I used to love, but... Now it feels too manlish...
The only think I like to wear now is a Black Casio F91-W. You know, that tiny one we all used to have at one point in our lives:



I don't want to spend a lot, but I was thinking about getting a more gender neutral watch, maybe girly but that won't raise a lot of suspicions. I was thinking between buying a colour F91W , or maybe a Tokyoflash, but above everything, avoid metallic straps! (I always get static discharges with them).

The Kisai 3D looks really nice:



Any recommendations or opinions? BTW, my wrists are about 5.5 cm wide (sorry, I only have a rule here and no measuring tape, but around 165mm with metallic tape), which I don't know if it is big or normal...

I have a couple cute watches given to me by my bf's momma but I don't wear them because I don't have like an office job so I never dress businessy or particularly mature.

Anyway the one I can think of looks kinda like the pic and I think it's cute if I were a little older and would wear a watch  :) though the picture on it is less... I don't know, lol.

I love kid watches and I would not mind a Mickey Mouse Watch (in the old art style), but between the "diaper cartoons" and Loonatics, WB almost killed the Looney Toons. The problem is that whenever I use and analog watch, I am always in need of a stepwatch or a timer, so I ended using and Analog / Digital combo. But it is so big and tall that it won't fight with any shirt or long sleeve shirt.






I really want the HRT to shrink my hands a bit... I open far too many jars with brute force and bold things without an screwdriver. I don't know if big watched could help in downplaying them a bit.


The Kirai is quite cool, but they only have it in black now. Since I have pale skin black seems to fit me better, or so they say.




Moma also seems to have nice things, but maybe overpriced:

Still see them around here. But there was something even cooler: Watches with IR remote for TV. I always wanted to have one for switching of the TV an school whenever they made us watch Mary Poppins again. And The NIntendo Watches...
