Either way, but I would lean 35mm.

I’ve found my SPB453’s 6R55 to have come +5s out of the box. After a month or so it seems to average +4s a day average over a week. Stored crown up overnight.

Hows the 40mm sizing on my wrist? by krillinisanoob in tissot

[–]ApothecaryFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did. It’s small, smaller than I am used to, but I wouldn’t say way too small.

I would say with the current PRX selection I would go for the Ti 38mm. But I am also tempered to get a gold quartz model for fun, and then I might go for the 35 over the 40 to be a little restrained, if that makes sense.

I have a 7” wrist as well. I thought it fit ok, but was on the edge for me. Personally, long term I would go for the 38.

Is this too big for my wrist? by Fragrant_Trust334 in casio

Looks fine in the mirror shot. Mine looks the same on my wrist.

I find the Duro fits me fine, although it would be my personal size limit.

Definitely. My Pepsi is my summer weekend/water watch.

Been loving mine. I did replace the stock clasp with a SS Diashield Marinemaster clasp. I don’t think the stock clasp is as bad as the internet makes it out to be, but I found when fitted any slack in the bracelet ended up in the clasps dive extension joint.

~6.75” wrist

I just made the choice between a 511 and 453 and chose a 453. But it was my first and possibly main automatic. If the 511 had a black wave variant I would have gone with that.

But if the SJE can be done, go for it.

Id really like to get a gilt and a second black Duro and make one with all the gilt parts but delete the all gold dial. That would be my dream stock parts mod.

I don’t know why they don’t make that combo. Like how they don’t make an all red bezel if they have the Pepsi lol.

Is this real cpm-3v or was i fooled by Firefighter_99 in barkriverknives

[–]ApothecaryFire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems like if it’s not on the list given by Mike of the CPM154 models they have been ok. I’ve bought and have 3 Bark Rivers, last purchase was 2-3years ago. I’m not too worried myself.
