Manhattan Constellation

I am not surprised and I prefer the original sized "claws" based on 1982 style.  The later, oversized "claws" absolutely detract from the bezel and spoil the concept.  I did expect the Manhattan style to be dropped in favour of the Globemaster and of course for some unknown reason all humans have suddenly developed much larger wrists to accommodate the now oversized watches exceeding 40 mm in diameter!  Most of the new watches I like are made too large to wear.

Here is my 2003 version of the 1995 Manhattan, and I love it for its comfort and understated, all steel style (an old archived photograph).  Only criticism is too many words on the dial. 

Best
