Looks much larger than e.g. a Reverso. Probably because the dial is so large. I quite liked the first pictures, but you really took me down to earth as well On the wrist, it looks huge!
I didn't know this watch very well, it has a beatiful shape and movement. I just wish the minute track had been at the edge of the dial and uninterrupted by the small seconds dial...
A very impressive watch indeed. That said, in my opinion fabric straps tend to suit sportier watches better, even if straps are easily changed. I also feel that Patek may be leaning a bit too heavily on them across the current collection.
Could be a bit thinner perhaps, but the dimensions work. The dial is wonderful, and black and gold is always elegant. But at this price, there are some very compelling alternatives...
And I agree; VC, Patek and Chopard are killing it this year! I found the Rolex releases rather disappointing, but perhaps my expectations were too high... Look forward to seeing the new Octo Finissimo, sounds very promising!
