Could anyone be kind enough…

to offer insights comparing wrist fit between the current Overseas and the 40 mm 1921? I ask because I read how large they both wear and I am considering an Overseas.

I made a boo boo with my wrist size. 18 "cm" and not "mm". (if mm the wrist would be smaller than the watch. Ha! ) And I too love my 1921. It was a grail watch for so long and I was finally able to get one used in excellent condition. I am not sure which ... 

No need to correct…

from mm to cm; I got the intent! I hope to see a blue dial in the flesh some day. I bought a 1921 40mm in white gold and slate Traditionnelle in platinum without seeing the watches in person. The Overseas 4500v makes me nervous because the dimensions of t... 

Thankk you...
