Loving this and the 34mm size feels and looks great!

Very nice!
I’m wearing the modern version with a pure white dial.
They’re like small Explorers..

Congratulations Josh, that’s a beautiful dial.

Out of curiosity, what’s your wrist size?

They are like small Explorers with different color Dhaka

I don’t know my wrist size but I’m not a slight person generally - I’m 5’10” 185 lbs - and this watch is on a 12 link bracelet with me wearing it adjusted as big as possible (I could do when an extra link to give more flexibility but this works fine for now).

Honestly, I’m torn on the 34mm size and have been going back-and-forth for the last 24 hours I’ve had this on if I think it’s great or a tad small… my 36mm Day-Date is more the size I think I’d prefer if I could redesign this watch but 2mm really isn’t much and I love the color of this dial so I think I’ll keep it. Either way, it looks great on my wife and I have an aftermarket bracelet on order that we’re going to size for her so we can share it.
