The Gombessa is *such* a cool and unique piece, and honestly doesn’t appear overly large on your wrist.  I believe you can pull it off, and do so well.


Here’s my Citizen “Ecozilla” (48x17) on my 6.5” wrist (photos taken just now).  Is it too much?  It’s a lot, for sure, but still is it’s own kinda cool.  The Blancpain is *tip top level* cool, with a design, color way and layout that’s just stunning (in my opinion).  And, as tool watches go, this is *it*.  Go for it!

Orange is pretty cool

Thanks Mark. Your Citizen is a cool summer watch. I liked The Gombessa when view through a mirror and when hold in my hand, but the perspective from the wrist felt like I was wearing a dinner plate, maybe because of the concave bezel. I could probably liv...
