I would like to get this set for my wife, but it says “for men”. Do you think she would still be able to put this together?

Being the proprietor of lady parts myself, I did not struggle extraordinarily with the assembly. I think your wife will do just fine.

How long will it take to assemble this ship?

Four hours? Total? My foot. I am an experienced model builder and there is no way anyone could pop out, prepare, wire, assemble over 350 pieces that fast. I've got 15 hours into it and I'm about half way. And some of the pieces do NOT fit exactly, especially if the tabs are bent, but generally overall the directions are accurate. Definitely consider gluing the main members to the hull; after all, why would you want to disassemble it? Some things you will need that I have found (maybe not you) are, elmer's glue, scotch tape to hold some of the pieces in place while the glue dries, an exacto knife to remove excess glue before it dries and to expand the slots that are often exactly too small. They don't tell you this on the box. The bottom hull is definitely the hardest part. It is unconscionable that the base would be made WITHOUT glue. I have glue certain points and the ship is steady like a rock and you don't have to worry about the pieces falling out after "assembly". Besides, people often glue their jigsaw puzzles after they complete them, so it would go doubly so for this model. Not EVERY piece mind you, but at the main stress points, especially when they are creased to be folded. It is a very fun and challenging product, and I would add not to gift it to anyone under 14 unless they have the patience of a saint. Four hour assembly? I'd have to see it to believe it. Unless there are like four or five people working together on it. But my rules with puzzles or models are these: 1) There is no deadline; 2) there is no reward for speed, 3) never lose your temper, and 4), No matter what, have fun! If you have little to no patience and are quick to give up, this or any other technical puzzle would be absolutely not recommended.

Can a novice assemble it?

These metal ships are incredibly beautiful but the parts are very very small because they’re so cheap I would suggest getting like a $10 metal kit and see if you can’t fill the tabs and if it works for you I got very frustrated with Metal so I’m using the U gears with cars and boats and the cubic fun 3-D shapes are a blast and I had never assembled one and it’s something the whole family can pitch in on

I have never done a model like this before. Is it easy for a beginner?

I've made 4or 5 of CF puzzle/models including a couple that are called "Hard." I'd start with a smaller, easier on with fewer curved surfaces. Curved surfaces are fuzzier to get fit but once you get the hang of how the material fits together, the bigger projects are just the same moves repeated more time. Never be afraid to use a little school or roll on glue if a part feels loose. Both those glues don't dry to fast and dry so clear that the glue never shows.
