I’ve been wanting an all around casual/dress watch that isn’t too flashy. Today was the first time that I tried on the Oyster Perpetual 114300. I typically wear watches in the 40mm plus size range, but the 39mm size fits perfectly. It’s so comfortable and you really don’t even notice it on the wrist.

Once I saw the white dial in the flesh I knew I had to have it. The dial color changes based on different lighting conditions. It’s almost an eggshell with a pearlescent effect that slightly shimmers and changes to a silver then back to an off-white. I’ve never seen anything like it. All I can tell you is that it’s amazing. This will be a regular in my rotation and always remind me of this amazing vacation and the memories my family and I are creating.



Are you standing near the 4 Seasons hotel, I think it is to your right?

I’m right at about 7.5”. I have all the links in and I had the AD move the bracelet to the loosest setting in the clasp and it fits great. I still have a little bit of room to shake my wrist and and have the watch move freely. Hope this helps!

I love Kaanapali and the Sheraton. Another great thing is Hawaii's 4.5% sales tax. About half of what we pay in California.

Awesome. Thanks!
And you don’t find the 39 too small? I’m used to wearing a GMT IIc and my only hesitation with the OP is the size.

No I don’t. It fits like a glove and feels very comfortable on my wrist.
