For my wrist size I try to stay around 40-41 but it depends on the look one is going for

The 43mm watch is for big dumb animals. Go 40mm.

On your wrist... I think 40mm is looking more demure and proper while the 43mm is just on the cusp of being too big.
All comes down to what else is in your collection I guess.. But I would go with the 116600. |

Funny, your response was typical of the cuck who insists on wearing what are considered lady's watches, saying that they "fit me beautifully" and "look great on my wrist". We can each have separate opinions, but insulting a majority of watch wearing folk is an unacceptable way to express your view. I myself have 8" wrists, if I wear anything less than a bulky 40mm like the Submariner/GMT, it looks ridiculous.

The 43mm looks ok since you wear it on your hand. If it were where a watch should be, 40mm.

Sorry...but I think they both look too big for you. If forced to choose however, the 40 looks better.

Man, this forum is really going down the toilet fast...
We need a “like” and “dislike” button for thread replies. Quote:
OP: they both look about same on u. Choose whichever watch u can’t stop looking at
