Think I need to revisit a 38mm and especially the 26315st
I know size doesn't matter but 7.25" is above average haha. My wrist is a bit over 6.7" and the 38mm is about the right size, along with the jumbo being perfect. I can see how it would feel smaller on your wrist. Also depends if you are accustomed to wearing large or small watches. After wearing some of my vintage watches, the 38mm (esp with the chrono pushers) and jumbo feel large. Really comes down to preference, I think photos can be a bit deceiving as watches appear larger when photos are close to the wrist but optically from the eye appears small - had photos of a 37mm which looked fine on me in photos but was entirely too small in person. Lots of factors come into play.

Also the color of the dial optically can make the watch wear slightly smaller/bigger. Try it with an extra link and report back, curious to your thoughts. Would love to get my hands on that platinum 38mm chrono.
