- I find myself going back to the 42-48mm size range although I never really went away from it. My tastes are going back to the more elegant, less cartoonish watches (no offense intended). My larger watches such as the SAS, SAIII, RDs and the like are not getting a lot of wrist itme. What does are my more expensive watches although some are a bit smaller (36mm-41mm). Sweet spot is porbably 44-45mm
I am with you Koi, although I never really got into the huge watches. The 40 - 44mm range is where is am most comfortable. | |

- I'm with you on that Alan, the funny thing is my favorite Z is my SST which is 42mm but it does wear bigger than it's actual measurement.
Im really thinking HARD about selling some Z's, maybe even some Oceanaires...I will let you know. Put them up here first, so we can have 1st dibs!!!! | |

- I don't have a large collection for two reasons.
1) I really, really have to love a watch before I buy it. 2) I don't have alot of extra cash, so I have to - See #1
I don't buy different colors of the same watch. I try to buy watches that are way different than what I already own. I try to buy watches that have different materials for their dials. Ex. Brown mop, blue mop, fiber etc. I don't buy into the hype.....I just have to really like the style, color, the fit and finish and it helps to trust the company that I'm buying from......Right George!!!!!
Just my 2 cents. Those are a coupla' good cents too. | |
