Nice watch, I wouldn't mind trying one on to see how it fits.

Who's wearing who?
A tad big for my taste.

Could be just the pic, but it looks clown like on this particular shot.

Per vendor it's 44.1MM with crown. (Think the wearer is probably suited to a >40MM watch, JMHO.) |

It may actually be not so bad on that fellow's wrist. The outstretched arm and the camera angle put his hand farther away from the camera than the watch making it look bigger than it really is. |

Perhaps...But either way, it's totally wrong for dress attire IMO. |

A dress watch should blend in with the clothing and not draw attention to itself...this one screams at you to look at the clown watch on my wrist  |
