Ken how are you finding the comfort (is it too top heavy)? It's almost 42mm, I know you're not a large watch fan, so curious how it feels all around. It looks killer on your wrist.

Found a great review and agree with the part towards the end of the article as to who would wear this. I'm not a 'traditional shape' watch fan--but the Zeit is just so damn hot that it really goes more casual to me--and that's why I love it so much.

PS - Pls post a side shot if you can--I'd love to see how high it sits on the wrist.

Paul for me with 7.5 inch flat wrist it is perfect. I also owned this before in platinum and always lusted after this combo. As for me not being fan of large watches I am a fan of all sizes! I posted the thread on sizes in Patek forum as it seems to me that members here like to say classic watches are out of touch and that it is only about large watches which couldn't be farther from the truth. I happen to own watches from 37mm to 42mm and have owned as big as 47mm and wore with no problem. So for me this is perfect fit and feel and a pleasure to own and wear. Thanks my friend!

I have a question for you Ken - I believe you have an AP 15305OR? If so, which would you choose between the two?

I had a few AP and no longer have any. Clearly for me Lange I would choose as I did and the quality is hard to match.

Wow, did you sell the jumbo too? I thought that it could have been your only SS watch.

Just found this thread ... Amazing!

I am an AP fan, but if I had to pick one watch for the rest of my life, the Zeitwerk could easily be it. Congrats Ken, it looks incredible! (PS, not the right thread for it but the Jumbo and the 5711 made such a cool pair).

Thanks Serg! Actually I still lust for RG Jumbo and I have buddy with one and as soon as he tires of it I will snag it!
