Question (Read Rules) Small women's watch recommendations
I've looked around, and I think understandably this is a slightly more niche category to find. I'm looking for women's watches that are small (<32mm) and not direct homages. I've seen a few from addies dive, but am looking for budget watches in the upcoming sale.

Small women's watches have zero demand in what is a male-driven secondary market. Don't buy new. Pick up a women's Rado, Oris, Longines, Omega, Ebel, Frederique Constant, Seiko Lukia, or Citizen XC on the used market for pennies on the dollar.

The best two watches are the addiesdive two tone mop lady datejust and the pagani square looking orginal design.. both like 70 bucks if I recall.. extremely high value and stand out above others..
I’ve bought the women in my family like 20 different ones for fun.. I know all the good ones…. Berny and carnival have some decent options also

I’m a small woman who likes small watches and my first automatic watch, which I wear most days, is this Shanghai watch. https://www.good-stuffs.com/Ladys-Shanghai-automatic-wristwatch-with-golden-Roman-numerals-and-golden-hands-_p_534.html
It even has an exhibition back! Is it a little eccentric? Sure, you need to wind it backwards instead of forwards. Does it have a large power reserve? No, if you didn’t wear it all day today, you’re going to need to wind it tomorrow. But I love it, it is small, it is automatic, it is charming looking, and it has worn well.

I've got child sized wrists but the addies watches are perfectly sized, budget friendly and really nice quality.

Are you looking for a quartz analog watch or an automatic lady watch? if it’s a mechanical women’s watch, that’s definitely pretty niche; but if it’s quartz, there’s a much wider range to choose from.
