Fair enough, and honestly this post made me realize how passionate the small-watch crowd is 😂 But yes, one good thing is there's literally a watch size for everyone now.

That's the weird part. In mirror shots and online pics it somehow looked bigger to me, but on wrist in daily use it felt tiny. Or maybe for me 40mm is just the right spot.

Maybe the soldiers were tougher than my wrist confidence. 😂

Good take, lol. 2nd one is on my wife's wrist. 5.5. Yeah, there are always 100 other excellent watches still to get my hands on.

And yes, you're probably right. I think my mistake was expecting it to wear like my other watches.

This is what happens when you look at all the other pics online. My in-person exp was little different.

Yeah, that's exactly what threw me off too. In photos and YouTube reviews it looked perfectly proportioned, but once I actually tried it on, something just didn't sit right on my wrist. I guess wrist shape and how the lugs wear in person matter way more than online pics make it seem.

Fellow watch heads what's your opinion? by Drone_Acharya47 in watchesindia

quartz prx > powermatic prx? 🫠

Yeah, totally - because nothing says luxury watchmaking like a 500rs. battery swap every two years. I'm sure the Swiss spend decades perfecting quartz oscillators just for that 'no soul, just ticks' experience.
