I always get a chuckle when people chime in that, "it looks too big on your wrist." I don't wear watches to impress other people. I wear watches I love. I don't give two cents what someone thinks about the watch on my wrist if I love it. Watches are about ME not YOU. :) Anyway. Great review! I just bought this watch yesterday and LOVE it. It is one of the most beautiful watches Omega makes. Great company.

YES. This is part of why this video has been super useful! But it has also introduced me to the shininess of the case- which I'm personally not too big a fan of.... Idk what my next piece will be but now I kinda do know at the same time... But I can't say what that watch is being that it'll only have a very limited quantity made....

What I’ve learned is that the lug to lug measurement is more important than the case diameter measurement as far as wearability. 2 watches with the same case diameter but different lug to lug measurement can wear very differently.
@BrokeWatchFanatic3 жыл бұрын
I learned that as well. Here's a tip, take the diameter of your wrist. Mine is 2". Then convert that to mm which is 50.8mm. That should be your maximum lug to lug.

I recently tried on this watch at my local AD and, I have to say to anyone worried about the size, it absolutely does not wear like a 42. I don’t have large wrists and was also not sure about it after reading all of the comments that it’s too big but after trying it on in person, for me the size felt perfect. In fact, I also tried on the new 41 Submariner and that one actually felt like the larger watch despite the measurements. Personally I liked the rubber strap option as it was more comfortable than the bracelet which actually did look a bit large since it doesn’t taper. It’s a completely different experience seeing it in person vs online and photos so if you’re able to, check it out in person!
@Pler197814 күн бұрын
Sub 41 feels and wears bigger because of male end link that effectively changes the lug to lug profile. I have a just under 7.5 and after reading on net about sm300 and how small it looked in person. This looks good on broke watch fanatic but most ppl with well under 7 this watch is too big and looks like a child wearing his dad's suit.
@luketradeslondon Жыл бұрын
I've got the Speedmaster Racing that is 44.25MM, which actually really wears like a actual 42MM. Eventhough it tells you that the case is bigger, it really doesn't wear bas big as they say. If you would wear a 44.25mm rolex, it will feel like a brick, but this isn't the case with Omega

As they say, "shooters gon' shoot!", so the same applies in this situation - try it out, give it a shot, and most of all make a smart financial decision in going for what you love. Great video bro!

I've got the white one, 2 days old, got to say it looks nowhere near 42mm. Bit of an optical illusion, when you have the blue, black and silver together with the white; the white looks smaller than it's stablemates. You are correct, you don't buy a watch for numbers, how wide it's lugs are, you buy it because it make you go wow! A beautiful, accomplished watch. If you get the opportunity go for it. Happy horology.
