No.

moonwolf · 23 July 2016, 12:50 AM

Nope. I think 47mm is meant to wear too big for 99% of us. So, I think if it looks a bit too big - that's perfect!

manilenyo · 23 July 2016, 12:53 AM

I see a little overhang at 12 o'clock side, which is very negligible and still it sits well on your wrist. Go for it!

Babolat · 23 July 2016, 01:04 AM

I tried on the 321 44mm and 422 47mm - surprisingly the 47mm feels more comfortable than the 44mm. Sits lower on the wrist...
Still it's a big watch!!!

Psmith · 23 July 2016, 01:06 AM

Looks fantastic

Cru Jones · 23 July 2016, 01:55 AM

from that photo, i would say you are good to go!

but, if you have any doubt, don't, IMO. get what makes you completely happy.

dysondiver · 23 July 2016, 02:08 AM

47mm is too big for my waist ,,,, but you do carry it off very well , is it comfy is the important thing

Knappo 1307 · 23 July 2016, 02:12 AM

Looks good...

prubio · 23 July 2016, 03:46 AM

for me it is perfect !!

But if you take the right hand, why not try the 557 ?

nick c · 23 July 2016, 04:17 AM

It's perfect enjoy

Babolat · 23 July 2016, 04:34 AM

Wow the 557 is a beaut !!!

kilyung · 23 July 2016, 12:38 PM

I think it works on my 6.5" wrist.

tinygears · 23 July 2016, 12:53 PM

Only if you're listing to starboard when you walk.

Ruud Van Driver · 23 July 2016, 02:11 PM

If in doubt, take the photo again from about 2 metres/6 feet away an then you'll see how it 'really' looks.

Look at the pics of the 44mm 533 on me below; close up, it looks a bit too big but from a more realistic perspective it looks fine.

Looks good, do it… J

1William · 23 July 2016, 09:34 PM

From the camera angle it looks too large. If it fits for you go for it. If not or not sure look at a 45 mm or 44 mm.

1st amg · 23 July 2016, 10:53 PM

Looks perfect.

B. Doggy · 24 July 2016, 12:24 AM

Looks good to me.

Thanks all for the input - going to be 372/422 or the new 1312 !! With the thinner case it should fit better than the the 312. Plus I love the blue seconds dial

DOUBLE 0 SE7EN · 24 July 2016, 07:07 PM

I was thinking 47 mm is too big for me but when I tried it wasn't too big.. Fits perfect..

Babolat · 24 July 2016, 07:16 PM

That's a lovely watch ...

brookish · 24 July 2016, 07:29 PM

no

Coffes4closers · 29 July 2016, 02:40 AM

Looks perfect to me! Love me some 1950s case! Especially polished. Really pops and just reeks of quality.

travisb · 29 July 2016, 10:52 PM

Looks awesome!

sea-dweller · 31 July 2016, 11:54 AM
