Thanks for the comments

Thank you to everyone for the comments. I went back to the store and after much thought have decided on the larger size! The pictures are really quite deceiving since they are up close and from a single angle. After looking in the mirror for quite a while I found that the small was too small. The gold bezel sits within the broader border of steel, and it makes both sizes seem smaller than they really are. I liked the presence on my wrist that the larger size had, and I preferred the wider looking strap too. Thank you again to everyone in helping me through my decision on here, in particular to SJX for the great writeup. Pictures to come!
