Ling,
This was asked and answered in the interview.
IWC make ladies watches but they are NOT small.....more mid-sized. They had Da Vinci ladies from the start but NOT publicised. That is the real question - why not publicised?
Generally, IWC agrees that the product range is tilted to men (Pilots, Portuguese, etc) and their advertising in the past also played on this: "Engineered for Men". But their ladies watches will not be cissy either so they have quite large ladies watches.....fitting with current trend.
Regards,
MTF

I'm curious...
Hi, Ben. Mike has already answered your literal question - No, the brands have no literal and absolute veto power here on this site. Mike also has pointed out the context of his original comment, which was in a broader, more general sense of an amicable "...
Thanks for the interview.
I want to know why IWC do not manufacture many woman watches. Is IWC a male chauvinist brand? OR Woman watch is simply not the DNA of the brand? Regards Ling
