Why Luxury Watch Makers Are Targeting Women

The sales of luxury watches have been in decline for years, and it has traditionally been a male-dominated industry. Watchmaker Eleven James is making a departure from that script with a new effort specifically creating and selling luxury watches to women.
Inspired by the sharing economy, the brand has also pioneered a business model to offer these watches on loan to women so they can change their watch selections regularly. It is a bet on the idea that the appeal of a luxury watch has less to do with owning one forever than with wearing the right one today.
