Great post! The same 44mm watch looks perfect in picture#1 and way too big in picture #2. Thanks for proving that close-up selfies can be very deceiving. For my smaller wrist 44mm is huge unfortunately since I like Breitling.

First, did you digest that the post is intended to show how wrist shots can be deceiving and how you fell victim to it? In fact, neither of those photos are truly accurate at all. Watches will always look bigger when taking a self wrist shot.

Second, does horology weigh in at all? Does it matter that historically, Breitling has always been a different look than Rolex, intended to wear big?
Sort of like saying an AP ROO should wear small or a Movado Museum looks too thin. Not meant to be.
It looks normal to my eye.. I like bigger watches & i understand the issue with close up photo
