When is big too big - or not big enough
I know this is always a touchy subject because there is a feeling that big is a trend. But the trend seems to have legs. You can't deny that more and more are going for bigger. Across Europe over the summer the trendy ladies are all sporting Rolex Submari...

It really is the talk of the "Hour"
I find it very difficult to guess right on such an issue. For those saying that it is just a trend, please go back in time and remember the evolution: 1) First the pocket watch. Just to start, it was quite big. 2) Then, who would have guessed that it woul...
Size does matter but...
it's not the only parameter. In fact, our feelings about the size of the watch are influenced by : the thickness of the bezel the case shape the design of the watch the lugs the materials etc... A perfectly designed 42/44mm watch can appear to be more bal...

Data from a survey I did...
Here is a short survey I did across several boards recently. The sweet spot appears to be 40-42mm. Number of Respondents: 158 Wrist Size: 6" (min), 7.2" (avg), 6.5" (mode, 18%), 8.75 (max) Watch Size: 30mm (min), 40.7mm (avg), 64mm (max) Modal Watch Size:...
I think size should not be substitude for a good design..
I think for me 42 mm is maybe too large.
What's an extra millimeter amongst friends . . .
. . . Mike R's gorgeous Grand Seiko on my wrist, weighing in at 37 mm, I believe. Balance and proportion are attributes commonly discounted today . . . cordially, Art...
