I've got no issues with small men's watches. My current favorite, and smallest, was cataloged by Gruen as a men's watch, but I know that Alpina also marketed it as a ladies' sports watch.

If I can get my '36 Master off the ground, that will be may absolute smallest, and I will happily wear it.

I'm always keeping an eye out for a 1934 Varsity.

Would I wear it? Yes, but I'd have to keep a copy of this ad in my back pocket to prove that it is a men's watch.

And should anybody wonder whether wearing a dainty watch is unmanly, I would direct them to one Mr. Huber Scott-Paine, aircraft and boat designer, record-breaking power boat racer, entrepreneur, inventor, and founder of Supermarine (of Spitfire fame).
