On the road with this one. It’s the only dressier watch I own that I’m comfortable traveling with these days. Last weeks travel was accompanied by my Rolex OP 36. The right size, but as I get older I don’t like pairing steel sports watches with suits, jac...  

Evening time, roll up the sleeves this one is perfect. But with the jacket on, for my wrist, it’s just a little too big.

Exactly my position, currently looking in the 33mm Calatrava range for the described scenarios.

There are a few that I’ve come across which tick the interesting box, but I’m yet familiar enough with that landscape to be sure on a purchase.

38 x 6.3 mm seems a very good size for me. Best, Emmanuel

…this one is 40.5mm, from about a decade ago. I think 38 would, as you suggest, be a better fit for this purpose. But I prefer this one, nicer dial, more interesting dial with texture and colour. And I prefer the sub seconds dial too.

Two different watches indeed. And I completely understand your preference. I just had the impression from your post that you found the size a little too large for such a dress watch. But if I understand well, you fully like it as it is, even if you’re als... 

It is not even “dress watch” use case, it’s more “business casual”. I do think (for me) 34-38mm, depending on lug to lug, would be a better visual fit for these types of days. I used to wear my Chronometre Bleu a lot in these occasions in the past. But th... 

to your ALS and the CB, even if these watches are great in their own right of course.

37mm size are perfect in my opinion

I like the rose gold. But I also have a thing for the Little Lange 1.

The Little Lange 1 would give you some variety over the 1815 you already have. And, of course, ownership of a legend.

But looking very sharp 🙌🏻👌🏻👍🏻 As for what you have been looking for, you could always try this: ...  

And of course Habring fits the bill too. But if I’m honest about it, I kind want something that carries a little more weight. Not physical, but social. Something that needs a second look to recognize, but not as obscure as Habring.

Btw. congratulations on reaching 12.000 posts 🎉🎊🎈 Looking forward to many, many more 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

One of my first “serious” watches was an original 36mm 1815, which I traded many years ago. But here’s something just as good: the Langematic Anniversary at 37mm. Fits my wrist like a charm for any occasion. ...  

Funny enough it’s not always a watch that comes to mind for me. But you are right insofar as it being perfect sizing, and very interesting. Plus a lot of versatility.

that this watch isn’t the solution for. Lovely
