Thoughts on the white ROC 41mm? (The cover pic is wrong, from CODE Starwheel).

Got to try on at AD, and I have to say. I liked it a lot more in person than I expected. Although in pics it reads as white, the dial is more of a silver in person.
Not 50th…
Does it read too big on my wrist? I didn’t notice it in person, but in pics was surprised.

Yes they are both 41mm. I have no problem with wearing the Diver, and it’s a 42mm. When you put the Starwheel photo right next to the ROC, in some ways the Starwheel reads as bigger. I think that you are right, it’s probably the focal length of the photos...
Nothing too much more to add except that…

That being said it does look a bit large on some of your pics, almost panerai-esque. I would suggest trying other sizes if such a thing is possible at least to compare.
Thanks!

I think you manage it OK.

Tough to tell with the sweater. I have forever been enamored with 39mm APs, but have come to very much enjoy wearing 41mm. The extra dial real estate is appreciated on a chronograph, and for me the case fits fine (I have a rather flat top wrist, which is ...
Thanks!

That makes sense. The bracelet wraps the wrist, so it looks bigger, but I do love the bracelet.
