Heart pocket watch for guy

[Bairn1876]

As the title says really. Is a heart pocket watch tattoo for a guy too feminine? I had an idea of doing a regular pocket watch for my son and a heart for my daughter but wondering if a guy getting a heart pocket watch is a bit unheard off. 

 

Thinking I might be better off with 2 regular but different designs. 

 

Any ideas or comments appreciated. 

 

Thanks

The way I look at it ... anything that’s a tribute or dedication to your daughter is not feminine in that sense. It has meaning and it’s your daughter. If you like it ...go for it!

Thanks. I reckon my artist could do a good of making it look good and not feminine.

Sounds like a good thing to talk over with your artist during the consultation:  

A pocket watch seems like a pretty neutral object:  with gears and mechanical touches it could be interpreted potentially more "masculine", with flowers/hearts maybe more "feminine", but at the end of the day who cares:  Let the artist know what you want, some ideas/guidelines, and let them do their magic.  

No matter what happens there'll be people who love it, hate it, and everything in-between.  The only opinion that matters is your own!

Indeed. In my eyes there nothing "too feminine" about a commemorative tattoo for a female subject.

Thanks for the comments. Something for me to think about.
