Well the SBGE201 is listed at 44mm/14.7mm thick. Not sure how accurate that is. But it just seems really chonk to me. The Rolex GMT Master II is 40x12.4 I believe. I’m just looking for them to scale it back a bit. 42x13 for a sports model is fine I think. I guess I’m not a Maxicase kinda guy. Who knows maybe in titanium it’s comfortable.

Their new SLGA001 is the only model with the movement I’m after and it’s a Godzilla monster.

If they could plop that movement in a time only diver or better yet a GMT. Scale it down to 42x13 I think it would be just right at about $7000. And better yet they put another $2000 into precious metal appliqué and bracelet R&D and ask $9000ish. That’s sort of the sweet spot I think.

Everyone’s got their own preference and opinion that’s just mine.
