    Rolex Submariner on a 7 3/4" wrist?

    Most likely this talk has been covered here before, but I've slowing moved up in sizes over the years from Omega 41mm to PO 45.5mm even Super Avengers, Just bought a DSSD but due to a fault its now sent back, I was a bit unsure about its thickness so my dilemma. Should I go for the classic Rolex Sub, when I tried it on in my local AD after my PO 45mm it seemed so small. So has anyone got any wrist shots with similar wrist size?

    Thanks in advance

    Can I be the first to suggest you look at the 116600?

    Its what you get used to, I have watches that all vary in size my Fortis B42 looked fine but after wearing a 39mm early sub homage for a few weeks it looks huge..

    Also look at the watch on your wrist then look at it on your wrist as a reflection in a mirror, 38mm looks perfect on my wrist in the mirror but looks a tad small when I look directly...

    Hi Dave, ive never even seen a 116600 to try on, yes they are a little thicker than the sub.

    It's certainly something to look at. Not as wrist breakingly thick as the DSSD but a bit chunkier than the sub.
    Perfect in my eyes!

    My wrist is over 8 inches. I do like and wear larger watches, but I think my 116610LV Sub looks fine on mine.
