It looks perfect on you. Camera perspective always makes watches look larger in pictures. Congrats on the new watch!

Honestly looks great on you. I think it's one of the best recent intros in many years. Does everything right.
Good luck on the hunt!

What is a maxi case?

You have the perfect wrist for the 40mm case. Jubilee is the classiest, the GMT BLRO is a sexy watch It doesn’t surprise me you fell in love with.

So this watch is a massive buy for me, and most likely my next purchase if I can weasel my way around the waiting list issues.

What do you guys think?

Here's some pics from the AD:

GMT II Pepsi love at first encounter (pics)

It looks lovely on you. And even if people didn’t like it, you should still go and buy it. Your opinion is the one that counts after all.

Looks great on your wrist. Wrist shots make the face seem much larger than it is. Very legible watch this is next on my list.

Wrist Curls will help.

The larger, blockier case and lugs that were introduced with the 6-digit GMT Master and Submariner models. Compare the 5-digit to the 6-digit and you’ll see it. It’s still 40mm across, but visually appears much larger.

It’s a super case but people always confuse the term with maxi dial

Looks really good on your wrist, but the most important thing is that you like the fit and finish. Funny thing out of all the post's only one that said it was to big. When you find one at MSRP buy it strap it on and never look back .. Happy Hunting
