It really isn’t the size of the wrist as much as the shape, no matter what the round-wristers claim. Truth is the flat wrists are a bit more versatile and even larger watches can wear well. Your size is objectively (my objectively as much as possible and based on years on this forum) looks pretty good. Would I go larger? Probably not, but this looks fantastic on you.

And if others don’t like it and you do, then who gives a rat’s ass about people you don't know at all, people—frankly—you might think are nuts in real life and dismiss the opinions of faster than it takes an AD to laugh and say “No GMT Pepsi for you.”

Very well said, and I agree with this. There’s a lot of discourse on this topic in the forums and now also Reddit, with everyone saying the trend of ‘big watches’ is a trend that should go away, etc.

It’s hard to objectively define what a ‘big watch’ is - there’s some that are just huge, but there’s a subsect which are probably borderline. To your point it’s very subjective
