Omg, how big is the first one? Like 53mm?

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : November 23rd, 2020-13:40

LOL! No, it's just 48

By: India Whiskey Charlie : November 23rd, 2020-13:42

Indeed only 48! They are big BUT they are nice!

This 48 did not wear as big as my 46 mm IWC BP.

I love these watches.

I always wondered whether a 40mm version would feel right, given the particular nature of this watch -- or, whether this style of watch is more true to form in a larger version (i.e., 45mm). Hope that makes sense. Any thought on this?

This particular 40 is too small for my 7.25" wrist, that's why my wife is wearing it.

I imagine the 45's would work well, however.

Really Special, indeed.

Big bold and very cool.

45mm is the sweet spot for the Pilot imho

You have me beat big time with your collection of large sized pilots 👍

I have a terrible weakness for Pilot watches unfortunately!

Can’t stop buying them and now I’m also focusing on vintage pieces which is even worse 😂
