The RQ in 40 mm
(For Jay)
I could only try the 40 mm in RG. It is definitely my preference even if most people ordered the 42 mm case.

It looks great, on your wrist.
Funnily enough you are the second person to show me a 40mm RQ today, a friend just visited a boutique earlier this week. When the world returns to normal there will be a lot of catch up for me in terms of seeing watches for the first time in the metal, th...
I hope it works size wise. It’s a fascinating watch and I think it offers something else than the original.
It doesn’t have the slim elegant profile of the R though. It is packed with a crazy movement and for that I find it very reasonably sized.
40mm would definitely be my preference too! :-)
Not withstanding my smaller wrist, the movement will fill up the case back a lot better.
I went with the 42mm
Honestly your wrist seems big enough to have the 42mm but it is all personal preference...Jim
The watch was designed for the 42 case and FP was wearing the 42 when I saw him in august.
You are right, I could easily pull off 42. It’s just more a preference thing for me. My preference is 38-40 mm.
Thank you for the information Christian
It makes me feel like I made a good decision going with the 42 since the watch was designed for that case. I’m sure it will fit me fine and I never plan on selling it so I’m one happy guy if I ever get it . Have a wonderful weekend… Jim

Do most people you know really order this in 42mm? I know it was designed as a 42mm but most people I know still ordered this in 40mm.
.
Right, thinner bezel as in 40mm. That is also my preference but was surprised when Christian said more people he knows ordered the 42mm. And he knows a lot of people!
