Most of the old watches are hand-wound or automatic women's watches.
There aren't many battery-powered ones like there are now.
It is natural that it is smaller than men's watches.
That's the craziness!!
Difficult to make due to small size
costly,
Craftsmen get tired,
Production has ended!!
It's just a trend of the times.
That doesn't mean battery-powered watches are cheap, though.
Most current products are battery operated, with the exception of some high-end watches and some models.
Even Patek Philippe sells battery-powered ladies' watches.

Since these are watches from the heyday of mechanical watches,
Not only the design but also every detail has been carefully considered.
Perhaps because it conveys that kind of atmosphere, they are sharper than men's watches.

The really small parts work together to make it work.
Ultimately, a ladies-sized automatic winding watch with a date function is quite elaborate and troublesome.
Although the number of parts is not that different from men's when installing for maintenance,
It's so small that it's almost impossible to find if you lose it.
Such a difficult feeling is what drives these watches.
The designers of the time, the craftsmen of the time, the craftsmen who repaired them, the people who sold them...
A watch that contains the thoughts of many people.
If you think about it like that, don't you think that even women will be addicted to watches?
