It is a special moment.

Thanks to Allan at WatchAuthority; for a smooth and warm transaction experience.
Serious congrats on the ultimate DD40 but let me go against the grain here and say that the watch looks enormous on you. May I ask what your wrist size is?

I'm glad you said it, looks like a wrist clock.

Congrats if you like it OP, but that watch is far too big for you.

I wouldn’t necessarily say so. The close in top down wrist shot view creates a larger-than-reality perception. But it makes for the best up close and personal view of the watch itself, which is why it’s a nice perspective in forums like this.

Never really considered a DD before. But as I reach 64 and retirement looming in a year a DD is starting to feel like a great retirement watch. That's a beauty! Wear in great health!
