How big is your wrist if i may ask? The 232 looks good on your wrist to be honest. Also, despite it being 47mm the wire lugs are quite short so it doesn’t jut out too much on the wrist, unlike a 47mm Luminor. I really really love the 232. But like you, I found it too big for my 16cm wrist. I also preferred a domed crystal, as it provides a better visual. Hence the 294, but the premium on the watch is too much for me. I think size is a matter of perspective in the end...as I said it looks good on you, maybe you can reconsider.
