While this watch may look like a man's watch, it is... well sometimes a man's watch. Union Glashutte creates a "boyfriend watch" in a woman's size. But a man who likes more "classically sized" watches will wear this new Sera timepieces from Union Glashutte as well. With its 36mm wide case, the timepiece is sized under what most men's watch are today, and about what most women's watches are sized at. UG calls it a business watch - implying that it is meant to be slim and demure. That may be, but the aggressive hands and hour markers remind me of Ball watches, and they aren't exactly the opposite of bold. This watch does have legibility going for it, and the steel case with is sapphire crystal and Swiss ETA 2892 automatic movement are plus factors as well. The watch is available in a few dial colors (silver, black, silver with gold toned hour makers and hands), and is also available on a metal bracelet in addition to the leather strap. Ladies (and gentlemen) interested in this piece can expect to pay about 1,350 euros, when it is available soon.
