LOL. GOY.

Good point.

My intent was not to patronize or condescend. If anything, coming into a thread as you did by saying, "Although this is a topic that’s been done to death, I’m still inclined to comment" is the...

Thank you, but I really don't want to make this thread about that. I started it to explore why members here seem to have more of an affinity for smaller watch cases and why?

PS As for my...

Thank you. I don't want to take this thread in the PRS-29A direction since I started a thread about that in the Time Factors Watches Forum, but I will use your post as an opportunity to digress. I...

Thank you for your comments. No praise, however, for slamming the topic. I am new and it is first impression for me. If you find it "tiresome" as someone else mentioned, you both should feel free to...

I couldn't agree more. A good example for me is my Speedmaster Pro. It is 42mm but the L2L is only 48mm and the dial is probably no more than 36mm. It wears like a 40mm, and I consider it my best...

I agree, but I think it is more than that. I think we have been conditioned to prefer larger watch sizes and discard what just a few years ago was the norm. This is why what I found here regarding...

I have been around long enough to have seen the standard in case sizes move from 34mm/36mm to 40mm/44mm. There are many watchmakers who don't even offer a 40mm case these days, but will gladly sell...

"Accidentally" huh? I have to try that one on my wife to see how it plays! Nice pickup. You may be on your way to being a bit of a watch nerd as well!

Right? I like the Lander GMT, but what makes this watch worth $1500 USD? It runs on an ETA 2893-2 that can be found on GMT's costing much less. This movement has a quickset 24 hour hand which...

Thanks for the photo. What is your wrist size?

Good to hear. I have a 40mm watch that is a perfect fit so 39mm should be fine for me. As for the accuracy, the ETA Elabore is reported to run only a few seconds fast per day and often within COSC....

Looks great. I've been on the brink of purchasing the Pepsi 39 several times and always talked myself out of it. How is the build quality? Is the bezel solid? How is the timekeeping?

I was looking for one a while back since the EII has been on my radar for a while. As stated in another post, there are plenty available on the pre-owned market and for relatively reasonable prices...

These guys.

I you are going to buy a safe, I would take the opportunity to have a large one professionally installed and secured to a concrete foundation if possible. Make it an all purpose fire proof,...

That is my take on it as well, but I still haven't seen a picture of the PRS-29A on my wrist size.

May I ask that you post your wrist size?

While searching through the Timefactors website I came across the Speedbird PRS-22 GMT. Unfortunately, this watch is listed as sold out. Curiously, it is not listed as discontinued like some other...

Thank you. Good suggestion. I actually do prefer the PRS-29A, however like many others I wonder if it will look way too small on my wrist. I do like the notion of the true nod to the original which...

Hello, I am new here. I have read through the threads (not all) and I didn't see much information regarding my question, so at the risk of dredging up old news, here it goes.

I have heard about...
