I told a co-worker that I wanted a mechanical windup watch. One day, he walked in with an old watch - still in good condition, that he found in his FIL’s things (FIL long deceased, of course). His wife gave him permission to give it to me. I’m a woman, so I don’t wear it much, but it won’t matter one whit in times of emergency, whether it’s “gender appropriate” or not.
Oh, I looked online and did find one at Vermont Country Store:

Thanks for your post and the link.
I still have my Yogi Bear watch. Works like a champ as his arms point all around the dial.
