If you are happy with it then it's fine. I personally prefer a 40mm watch.

I think it looks great on you, but ultimately it’s your opinion that counts!

Come on, are you men enough to wear 34mm watches? 7.5 inch wrist here and I love the 34mm Air King. I just need to source an extra link.

It's still a beautiful watch! I wear some of my watches that are smaller than the 40mm's that I've been using and still appreciate it for what they are.

Get yourself an SD43 and you will be much happier

Hahaha. What was it... something about great minds thinking alike: I already own the SD43 and holding my breath for a SDDS JC from my AD.
This photo was taken in Sept 2019, picking it up from my AD. That is a serious watch. Can’t even think whats like with a SDDS JC on.

LOL... thank you. You mean this one? Oh, yeah. I’ve been with this one for a few months already...

That’s a good strategy, been doing that in the past with other watches but this one seems so fragile to wear for a full month, cleaning the chain on the Bike and so on...
