I think this is a great comparison. Those that say a DD36 is too small can see that the dial is almost actually the same size.

Can't begin to tell you how much I dislike driving gloves. Sorry.
I can't tell you how much I agree with your last sentiment! Hahahaha Just goes to show you, money can't buy you everything. ;)

Both look great on you and, as others have said, are well-tailored to their respective "looks," i.e. tool v. regal.

Buuuuttttt...am I the only one wondering why the Benz has keys in its ignition (insert R. Kelly joke here) haha. Seriously, though, when the F was the last time cars had keys??

However, you can see that alone, the Pepsi fits great and sits well on my wrist.


But so does the President!


Here is a shot in full attire, which obviously. have not had to wear since March shelter in place...




The bottom line is that both watches command their own allure on the wrist regardless of size!
Great looking dash too. My wife's little MB convertible isn't quite that nice, looks similar though...

Nice watches.

Both sizes look good.

Great pix.

Cute glove but it will scratch your DD.
