Nice... thanks for posting !!
and reminds me that I do like small seconds at 9...
I tend to agree with you that 41 might be a tad large depending on the individual, and in this case the crown seems a little more substantial than on a smaller version (e.g. 37/38)... the one possible drawback of the smaller watch is when it comes time to set the time/date with larger fingers ;-).
Lovely example.

For Casey - GP 1966 Small seconds at nine plus date
Friends, Yesterday Casey mentioned he likes both date and small seconds at nine, so of course I like to show him one of the current offerings from GP! Reference 49543 This one has the bigger size, 41 mm Pink Gold case. The 41 mm is also a bit thicker, 10....
Cognac dial
I had the opportunity recently to see this cognac dial in real in the shop window and I have to say, it's quite something. Not as versatile as a cream dial, but definetly beautiful. CC PS: Blomman seeing your wristshot of the 38mm 1966, I feel that 41mm w...

My pleasure, Casey! :)
Yes, the smaller size have a smaller crown, but due to the case shape it is no trouble to operate the crown even on the smaller one! Will explain in my final review of the GP 1966. Best Blomman
Yes, you are right....
I forgot this one... Too many versions to remember all... ;) Best Blomman ...
Latest update!
I crossed paths with the Palladium again and this time I made no mistake... (",) I don't think I'm ready for it yet so I'm keeping it in the safe for when I'm old enough. Strangely, I can see this being my only watch when I'm in my 60s!
Congratulation! :)
But before you put it in the safe - please share some shots with us here! :) Honestly, I think it would be a shame not to use such a wonderful watch! Best Blomman
