For such a big watch, it wears very comfortably. I'm guessing its a combination of the big surface area and the wide 26mm strap.

Agree the wide strap is a size neutralizer, It feels great & is comfortable in any of 3 holes... (Please hold the jokes ![]() You narrowing down your decision? ![]()

1 is called a 1950 case , the is unclear as to the name (according to the salesperson @ my recent trip to OP boutique. The newer one has a straight ridge along the side edge vs the older ( original) that has a gentle continuous curve.

I am sure you saw this. Some great comparison pictures between the 2 watches.

What kills me is that no single model is "perfect" in my eyes. I love the case shape and domed crystal of the 127, dial layout of the 372, and PR display in back of the 422.

True. All three are great. But I will say that the case on the 372/422 is so cool and sleek. The 1950 case to my eye is more rugged and bulky. Still the 127 is to die for. Too many choices. No one perfect PAM.
