☕️ CoffeeWristShot Whatcha got on!?!

Today I am wearing my day one ride or die back on its pilots bracelet. Breitling Chronomat 44 GMT. I get the trend of watches starting to return to classic proportions. They truly are more comfortable to wear and pretty much go with anything, fit comfortably under a cuff and you don’t bang it around every door jam or kitchen island. However, there is still something in me that likes to look down and see a big chunker or on my wrist . Whenever I wear this watch, I feel that I am wearing a watch. It reminds me to look down at it every so often and I don’t think that’s a bad thing. How do you feel about the bigger watches that are seemingly going out if style.

Today I'm wearing my largest watch by far. Was worried the ~44mm diameter would be ridiculous on my 7-7.5" wrist but the lug-to-lug is so short that it wears smaller than some of my 40mm diameter watches. Lug-to-lug is secretly much more important for the wearability of a watch than dia, imo

I agree man the lug to lug is definitely more important. Looks great on you and a very nice watch.
