I am now wondering if this bigger one you are showing on the right here is possibly a men's version...

There is no date on this foldout and I haven't been able to id or date the watches yet and of course no colour. Looks to me like men's box could be lighter and the ladies being the deep red velvet, not sure... But both are 17 jewel.
