42mm vs 38mm
Re: 42mm vs 38mm
Also worth noting that the bezel on the 38mm feels much better, firmer and higher quality.

The 38 is much better. The 43 looks like a clown watch on you.

Re: 42mm vs 38mm
This is going to be a tough one! They book look great! Clearly one will have more heft than the other but you might feel one fits your wrist better. At least with the CW 60 day promise you get the fun of road testing them both! If it were me I think I'd wear them on alternate days in a range of scenarios and just get a feel for them. Heck- you might decide to keep both!

Lol. It's definitely more elegantly proportioned but I've worn 42mm well for a while. The first picture of this thread shows me with a Steinhart and that was perfectly sized.mibby wrote:The 38 is much better. The 43 looks like a clown watch on you.

Re: 42mm vs 38mm
How is the 43mm likely to compare size wise with the C11 folks?
Love how my C11 fits but think I'd struggle with anything larger.
17cm wrist btw....

Re: 42mm vs 38mm
I have the 42 (43) on 17.5 wrist and it fits perfect thanks to the curved lugs. That said, a 40mm would be even better.
