It is our duty as purveyors and pundits of fine wristwear to help you identify those timepieces that belong in your collection - the pieces that really matter today, and will continue to matter generations down the line. Occasionally we forget, though, that behind every great man's watch, there is is a great woman's watch. And today, we are here to bring you some of the finest wristwatches on the planet, for your better half.

But don't think we've gone soft on you. Each of the watches we've selected not only for its beauty and grace, but also for its true horological hard-coredness - we're talking manually-wound column-wheel chronographs, double-retrogrades from Agenhor, in-house world-timers, and other exceptional timepieces that just happen to be made for women. So sit back, relax, and take a look at some of the finest watches in the world designed for the lady in your life.
