Help assessing size
With apologies, asking for a bit of honest advice. Smitten with this ceramic pilot’s chrono, but is its 44.5mm case simply too big for my wrist (maybe 6.75 inches). Thanks! ...
I would recommend looking at it in a mirror perhaps 1 metre away.
Instead of close up
It’s down to individual preference
I don’t mind wearing huge pilot watches since traditionally they were meant to be big. The black ceramic case makes your 3789-01 looks smaller too ...
Mixed feelings there, as there is no straight forward answer.
As such, the watch suits you pretty well, but you are probably used to wear smaller diameters. Diameters are really a matter of habits, I used to wear only 40/42+ mm watches (Seiko Monster, IWC Rattrapante), and then I suddenly got interested in vintage w...

Wear it and enjoy it.
Looks great to me!
Even up close, I think it looks fine. The photo with a bit of distance makes it look great! Go for it! BW, Chi Kai
Just went through the same dilemma
Hey Bob, Funny to see your post. I just went through the same dilemma between the ceramic chrono 44.5mm and the 41mm ceratanium. While the 41mm case is a little better for sizing it did not feel that much smaller. So I got the 44mm and it has been great. ...
