Watches Other Than Oakley

I like those but they’re too small on my wrist.

I have an above average wrist size and 39mm is pretty much ideal. I have no truck with the oversized watch fad - if the lugs are hanging over the edges of your wrist it looks daft.

I completely agree! 39-42 is as far as I'll go with 42 being pushing it (depends on the lug to lug).

Congrats. That is way nicer than the Roleks my grandma got me on the streets of NY years ago

Yep, 42mm is Speedy Pro territory and I wouldn’t go any bigger than that.

The speedy wears small for a 42mm. More like a 40 due to the relatively short lugs.

I got one of those too! Right from NY, the fakes are what got me into the real ones.

That's because if you don't include the crown guards, it is a 40mm watch. Beautiful speedy with hesalite!
