It doesn't matter what anyone thinks but you, if you like it, then wear it. You may think it looks a little large atm, but you will get used to it within a couple of days.

Thank you everyone for your opinions, I do like the watch but I also realize it appear kinda large on my wrist. For now I keep it in the collection collecting dust and make my watch box look cool until the BLNR or Pepsi or Hulk arrive. May be then I will decide which one to flip

Looks to me like you got another large watch in that box, maybe a Explorer II?, so you are not unfamiliar with larger watches. I would say use it if you like it I also see you have stacked some cash, for your next purchase perhaps? And moved the bed 15cm, good for you

The other watch is Daytona and DJ, I don’t have anything larger than 40mm as of now beside this SkyD. I am waiting for a daily use watch or whenever my AD call me, I specifically request for hulk, blnr, or pepsi only. May be a no date SubC but I rather have the other options first.

I saw a blue dial in person and wasn’t impress, IMO white look awesome on SkyD SS. Haven’t seen black dial yet though.
The car was just for fun LOL. First RWB in Hawaii.

Interesting, the Daytona looks so much bigger then the Datejust in the box (If the Datejust is 36mm)

Cool cars

At 60mm my Panerai Egiziano is not for the faint of heart lol

wrist shots can be tricky. some angles make it look big. my reference is if the lugs are floating on the side of my wrist or over my wrist then it is too big.

A tad too large, but how does it slide under your cuff? Don't want to scratch that piece!

The fact is....the watch is big for you.

If you like big watch...then go for it. Your watch..your wrist...your money...your life. Wear a 50mm if you like...doesn't matter to me.

If you like it, go for it, but it is a large watch on you imo.
