It doesn’t look too small to be honest
In fact looks very nice on your wrist. Beautiful one, where the size and movement are paired well. A classic for sure.
PP 96
The watch is small, its dial is cleaned, the case is polished a bit, and I have yet to source a 14mm PPC buckle. I like the watch much. Excellent dial proportions. ...

I agree.
Proportions are perfect and while it does appear a bit small it’s representative of a more elegant and refined era.
Well the design was sold for 40 years or so
I acquired this watch as a gift for my sister. Going forward I may have to find another one for myself. Strong alpha hands. ...
Thank you. It takes about half a day for me to get used to the size.
Then 31mm feels quite alright. Helps that the case is made of gold too. I had tried on a stainless ref 96 with a sector dial. That 'feels' smaller.
Wow. A very interesting piece. The strap is just perfect
For the watch. Do you have an extract - do you know when this watch has been sold?
I don't have an extract, but
The auction house from which I purchased the watch, Dr. Crott of Mannheim Germany, says it's made in 1952. Aesthetically, a lot of the older (30s on) reference 96s have a closed sub seconds dial, whereas the latest reference 96s have printed minute marker...
The archetypal Calatrava ...
and looks great on you. Not too small at all, and perfectly proportioned. A wonderful classic.
A perfect watch
I have a 3796G and 3923J. Both the same size. They are a joy to wear and very legible and functional.
Simple is better. Bauhaus concept. Beautiful timepiece. 👍
Enjoy and keep for a long time for the next generation. Cheers 🥂🍾 Geross
