I wish I could say I’m clever enough to have done that on purpose, but I’m not, and I didn’t.

Purple on the bracelet has me hooked... in spite of what I said just a few comments ago about FLE lovely monochromeness
Re: New Spring Colours Drop 09.02.2023?
My wife has taken a shine to the purple dial worn on a bespoke white leather strap. She has very small writs and a bracelet is a no for her.

Re: New Spring Colours Drop 09.02.2023?
Some interesting new colour ways, my favourite is the oxygen. My issue is that I’ve decided that I can’t go as small as 36mm. I bought the 36mm Lucerne and did like that apart from the size, I probably should have gone for a 39mm Lucerne whilst I had the chance.
I even tried on a 36mm Explorer recently and again it just looks too small to my eye, even though I only have a 17cm wrist, great watch as it is.

I think the purple looks great. 36mm might even work for my wife, if not for me.

I think the Ombre' effect dial makes a big difference with these 3 colors.

Jump on it! No time to think, the way recent LEs have been flying off the shelves! I think I saw these are limited to 150 each?

Re: New Spring Colours Drop 09.02.2023?
I like the two sensible colours of the three. If the clasp was a sensible size I would likely buy one for Mrs nbg. However with her small wrist there is no way that she could wear it on the bracelet.Thegreyman wrote: ↑Thu Feb 09, 2023 11:31 pm Some interesting new colour ways, my favourite is the oxygen.

As to 36mm?
It is a fine example of how two discerning watch aficionados can come to different conclusions.
No correct or incorrect views on watch size all down to the individual. With my massively larger 17.5cm wrist, I am more than happy to wear 36mm case watches and looking forward to adding the new 36mm Explorer to accompany my old 36mm Explorer.

I guess we are all different, logic would probably state that I should be fine wearing 36mm but I've tried a couple of times and it just looks a bit too small to me, I think 38/39mm is the smallest I would go to. So maybe a 39mm Sealander in my future and/or a 39mm Explorer..who knows?!
