Just wanted to point out in the 70's there were some huge watches. Rolex held out then and did t go bigger than 40. Now they did and the trend is heading back to smaller watches. The new seadweller is back at 40 from 42. And looks great. Seamasters scaled up the bracelet and dial with the case. New subs look a bit odd with the dial and bracelet from a 40mm watch on a 42mm case. In my opinion of course.
