My pick.. Zenith Pilot
Zenith Pilot Type 20 40mm .. they wear small since the lug are very short just like those on 372..
However IMHO to suit your ChromeHeart bag you chose, you do need the bronze case (zenith Pilot type20 bronze 45mm) with brown leather strap.
watch advice
Need to find a watch to compliment the backpack and briefcase/messenger bag below. The PAM372 and IWC Big Pilot are obvious choices but I need something suitable for an Asian size wrist. I've looked at the smaller IWC Pilots and Panerai Luminors but I thi...
Nice!
Nico, I knew I could count on you for an erudite selection but the stainless steel version is impossible to find now! I think it was a limited edition
thanks again nico
JLC tribute to Geophysic is the winner. The hunt for a NIB or LNIB steel version begins!
AP Safari...
I love the cream dial of the previous model (shown) over the current version. ...
LOVE safari
AP safari is in the right genre, especially the NAME but it wears huge, like a 47mm Panerai
mmmmm
would be more of a match if they used the fake patina brownish lume instead of the new bright green superluminova
I know you said the smaller IWC pilots lose a bit of flavor...
But this classic seems pretty yummy to me. Put it on a brown strap and I think it would be a perfect complement to your backpack. ...
love it
love the mark xv but this watch is going to be a gift so it has to be new in box
Not sure if this is going to be high-end enough for you but I think it would be a great match...
Oris Carl Brashear Limited Edition ...
bronze!
love this bronze oris and the tudor black bay bronze as well but they are SOOOO BIG made for giant Teutonic wrists
Oh, your wrist must be smaller than I realized
The Oris is 42mm, relatively small by my standards
lugs
I think the lug to lug is 50-52mm vs 48mm lug to lug for most 40mm diameter watches
There is only one small watch option for you my friend. On my wrist now... (keep in mind I'm 6'3")
Enter your post text THE MARK XII! ...
+1
That one is a gem and fits as a great watch. Not too small despite the numbers, and has a pretty significance presence, especially on the bracelet.
picky
I know this is nit picking and super OCD but I have one issue with the black bay 36 and its that the crown with the black spacer ring sticks out way too far from the case body. the crown is a thick crown which is appropriate for a sports watch but the use...
I know right!
I completely agree, the spacer on all the Tudor heritage models drives me insane. I can\'t deal with it and it\'s the principal reason I don\'t own one. So don\'t worry, but I know it doesn\'t bother everyone. In regards to the shoes, thanks! They\'re not...
How about the 38.5mm Aqua Terra?
The Annual Calendar version or GMT complications add additional function, plethora of material and color choices. Plus arguably the best movement being produced in any quantity.
My pick.. Zenith Pilot
Zenith Pilot Type 20 40mm .. they wear small since the lug are very short just like those on 372.. However IMHO to suit your ChromeHeart bag you chose, you do need the bronze case (zenith Pilot type20 bronze 45mm) with brown leather strap.
very vintage style
The Zenith Pilot Type 20 is a good match, the 40mm size is perfect, and the price is reasonable. I'm going to take a look at the zenith type 20 while looking for a LNIB SS JLC tribute to geophysic The bags are by Wellington & Cromwell, not Chrome Hearts. ...
Guess any of the watches suggested...
... in the thread would be nice with a canvas straps to match your great suitcase. Something like the one I got for my SM which matches the lume color. Cheers! Abel ...
I really like the direction you are going with this, Abel!
Edward, if you really loved your friend you would find him one of these(and one for me too)! ...
tropical dial
i love how the dial matches the strap exactly but that tropical dial looks too good to be true which makes me skeptical....lots of fake tropical dials out of asia now.
What about this Zenith Pilot?
Strap is the wrong color as your backpack, but you can easily find a strap of similar color. Cheers, Anthony ...
