Yes, watch shops tend to have this default "man big, woman small" mentality. My friend happens to look awesome wearing big watches and she has a number including a Panerai Luminor (they tried to sell her a Due but the bigger one looked better on her) and a Breitling Navitimer 41 among others. She's a very slender, quite tall model build but has quite flat wrists so they all look awesome on her. On the other hand, I was looking at Reverso's today and the the smaller, more traditional ones looked way better on me, even with my 7.5" wrist.

I love bronze with Green, so my pick would be the Christopher Ward C65 Dune Bronze COSC on the green vintage oak leather... I know the movement doesn't compete with in house, but it's just a look I've fallen for. Helps that it's less than a quarter of the price of the Breitling ๐Ÿคฃ

Honestly, this is so personal that I'd say, take a note of how much you wear each one over the course of about a month. Those with no or little wrist time consider selling

By your definitions, I'd have to say accessories. Certainly I wear my watches as jewelry, but even with a phone and a laptop on and around me most of the time at work I find glancing at my wrist for the date and time much easier and it's my primary method of checking the time.
