New Luxury Watch Releases & Upcoming Collections

Key Points from the Discussion

• The 38mm case appears slightly small, while the 42mm might be a bit large, prompting a suggestion to explore curving or angling the lugs of the 42mm for better wrist integration.
• The aluminum dummy cases may exaggerate the perceived size; the actual watch with a domed sapphire crystal will likely appear smaller. Despite initial concerns, the 42mm is favored, as Aaron Becsei's design aesthetic often benefits from a larger presence.
• While the 38mm might be more wearable for everyday, a size between 39mm and 40mm could be ideal. The suggestion to curve the lugs is reiterated for aesthetic appeal.
• In bespoke watch choices, selecting the smaller case often leads to fewer regrets. This perspective leans towards the 38mm option, emphasizing long-term wearability.
• The original author clarifies that the movement is specifically designed to fit each case perfectly, ensuring no wasted space. He also expresses a desire to maintain Aaron Becsei's original design intent for both the case and lugs, as they are integral to the movement's aesthetic.
• The choice between case sizes should consider whether the collector desires a 'statement piece' or a more understated, elegant watch that easily fits under a shirt cuff.
