I'll know for certain how this works out tomorrow - as that's when it's scheduled to arrive.

Gonna have trouble sleeping tonight!

:hurra:
That's about the same wrist size and height as me, so I'll be very interested to see some photos! :)

When dressing with a suit or something I imagine a 38 or 40mm watch would be the norm so to leave a little space on the wrist and not overwhelm. What I have noticed when I take the bus or am in the city is that all the young guys are wearing giant watches that fill their wrists. Giant. Huge blingy watches is the trend for these young cool guys. And you know, with the hip, street way they dress it works fine. I'm starting to like it a bit too. A maroon C60 42mm would not look out of place on my wrist in Rhode Island.

Great anticipation of these photos ! I must ask does the face feel small with the bezel taking up quite a lot of the overall area ?

No it doesn't - not to me anyway.
The bezel and face seem in perfect proportion to each other.

These pics are taking forever to upload to to photobucket - the joys of having an ISP who are called 'Quality Net.'

I think they should get a dictionary and look up the word 'quality' then either change their name or change their service!! :problem:

I agree it is quite a dilema when choosing between the 38mm and the 42mm.

I have a 7 inch wrist and although the 42mm will fit fine, I think I prefer the 38mm due to its dressy qualities.

I'm have 6.75" wrists and I struggle with 38mm watches. They feel tiny to me. I have 43mm c60 and I think it wears well. It seems to wear bigger on the bracelet. I think a 41mm or 40mm would be perfect!

The info in this post is great. Helps to get a perspective on the difference between the two sizes. Thanks to everyone who contributed over the past year+!
