This is a silly statement. I own a DSSD and a few Panerai, so I like big watches, but there is not much else that is as classic as a gentleman wearing a 36mm datejust or day-date. Get with it...

Costco is not Sam's. Much different company. Sam's is the seem as Walmart except you have to pay to get in.

And there's that too!!! Service is about 3% of the purchase price.

Case in point! Looks great on your wife. Not as great on a 7.25-7.5in wrist, not to me at least.
