Large

So it's no secret that we all love large watches, PAM's and the like. Now the sickness has officially deepened for me. I saw a BP and absolutely love it!

I considered myself only a Rolex and Panerai guy but this might have to be added one day.

What do you guys think about the BP?

BP is a beautiful watch. I'd love to get one but 46mm was a a little too big for my wrist

If the quality of the IWC Portuguese is any indication, the BP is going to be an incredible watch. And you know they hype around 'em. It must be a hot watch.

Not my watch, but it is my wrist!

To each his own. I think it compliments the watch nicely!

Agreed, wish I could have located the 5002 but had to settle for the 5004. It's still my favorite watch that I own.

Perhaps too big for me, but definitely beginning to like IWC especially after seeing it on the movie 2012.
