126710 Pepsi question
Would like to purchase a jubilee Pepsi. But can’t find any in the city so I can’t try it on in person.
I have a very small wrist(about 6.5 inches). Don’t know if the maxi case will considered to be too big for my wrist. The biggest watch in my collection now is a 168000 and I think it’s already my limit. Need some advice from those who also have small wrist. Thanks! |

I have a 6.5” inch wrist as well and fits fine.

The super (not “maxi”) case watches don’t wear as big as they look in photos. You’ll be fine

Your wrist size is less of a hindrance than the chronic availability issues.

I own the BLNR Jubilee — same watch case and bracelet so same fit.
The jubilee bracelet makes the watch wear a bit smaller vs. an oyster bracelet. On an oyster the first centerlinks protruding from the case extend out further than the jubilee. The jubilee hangs straight down from case. I actually made a video comparing the GMT to my 114060 here: https://youtu.be/hBybAZNEzzA Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

You should be fine with modern Supercases. Pity you can’t try one on at an AD. I suppose you can try one at a gray dealer and see how you like it.
Good luck in your quest |

I have the same wrist as you. You will be fine with Pepsi. I am ordering one myself in WG.

As others have noted, you will be fine. I have a 6.5” wrist, and wear both the 14060 (which has a bigger case) and the 126710 (the lugs are thinner than the Sub).
Good luck! |

I think you would love it. The proportions are near perfect to me. It's not a maxi case as compared to a SubC

Yeah, my 6.75" wrist is fine with the super-case with oyster, so you should have no problems with the jubilee, which wears a bit smaller.

Watch Tim Mosso's review of the pepsi on youtube.
He also has tiny wrists |
