I know because after seeing your post I instantly went to check the internet to find a second hand one ππ. Really beautiful watch but sadly not apt for my thin wrists.
When I tried it it wore more like a 42 than 44 mm watch, hence why I thought its was a 42 mm one. So you were right to correct the size, my friend, no worries about that.
I think I posted a few weeks ago about my set of Jubilee Portuguese (in three metals), Ref. 5441, made in 1993 to celebrate IWC's 125th anniversary. Perhaps one of the most beautiful, simple, hand wound watches ever made, IMHO!
