Congrats on DD40. Looks like it needs to be sized for your wrist. More shots out in the wild. Enjoy it!

Couple of days--why wait? Should have had AD do it for you. Am I missing something

Reason I say that, walking around for a couple of days with that flopping on your wrist will most likely cause plenty of scratches.

Enjoy that beauty!

picked it up at an ad, but since before acquiring the watch i always pictured myself wearing it loose, as i have seen on many wrists in popular media. but i must say its rather uncomfortable. will enjoy the watch like this for a day or two and then get it sized :) should be more comfortable

Congratulations on a fantastic piece!

I too envisioned myself wearing my DDII just as loose as your photos depict, but the watch is way too big and heavy for that.

Beauty - congrats. Please get it sized properly, or you'll soon regret it. The 'nonchalant' floppy, bracelet look is a bit passé IMHO (Miami Vice)...
