If you look at the difference in surface area between traditional men's/women's models of the same watch [1] there's a pretty massive difference in what you'd be able to do with the space. However, you do see more women wearing men's watches now, so I could see it catching on.

I think they will need to hit a pretty big number for battery life. A "40-hour power reserve" (what most mechanical automatics have) would be a big step towards being taken seriously as a watch instead of a gadget.
