Thread: Is this watch too big for me?

  1. #1

    Is this watch too big for me?

    I know these threads are sometimes frustrating or boring but this one is a little different so please read on.

    I have been looking for a watch.

    A very specific watch.

    It can't be too big or too small.

    It can't be too loud or too proud.

    It has to tell the time easily.

    I think I found one but I'm worried it is a little too big for my wrists, which are around 2 1/2 inches in circumference.

    I really like it otherwise.

    I've been fortunate enough to have been able to try it out for some time and it is very comfortable, very clean and otherwise suits my style.

    I can even sleep comfortably in it.

    Yet there's a niggling doubt that it's not right for me.

    Please help.

    If it's the right size I will keep it but if you think it's too big can you recommend something else?

    I also like the IWC Big Pilot and U-Boat but they are beyond my budget at the moment.

    Thanks,

    Gabriela

    I think that is a great fit, lugs arent overhanging the knitwear :-)

    (she's gorgeous btw)

    The dial really goes with the cardigan / jumper, thumbs up from me !

    P.S. Mademoiselle might prefer a 7750 chrono, for the "wobble" effect.

    I'd say it's just right, no overhang and a nice match colour wise for the knitwear.

    Just make sure mummy or daddy don’t try to “borrow” your watch.

    This is great. We've all used the 'when they are eighteen' justification, but the 'she needs it right now' version is so much more convincing. Cute kid!

    Perfect for those dress down days in the cot as well as trips in the buggy.

    No, that is just the right size.
