Please show me Yachtmaster blue on large wrists

I have a 7 1/2" wrist that is a flatter and wide. I have loved the look of the Yachtmaster with blue dial. I tried it on and it looks slightly small to me. It's tough to tell looking at it from my own point of view. I'm hoping seeing it on others with larger wrists will convince me it will work.
Thanks in advance

Here's mine - 9¼ inch wrist. This photo was taken with the standard Rolex Oyster bracelet - after this photo I added 2 more links, for comfortable wearing.

Ken, I think you'll be fine. It will sit centred & you most likely will have a bit of skin showing from lug to side of your wrist/forearm. I think you're questioning the 40mm because of your Breitling being 44mm & having gotten used to that size. ;-)

I think you'll be fine, will take a little while to adjust from 44mms but you will, it is not a small watch and wears bigger than your Daytona.

Yea my Daytona wears small, it was a gift so I dare not complain. (wife would shoot me.)
Seeing the YM on other wrists gives me perspective.

Oh, 9 1/4" now thats a wrist!
