Is this too much?

Do you think I can pull this off?



Naw, I think a basic Sub is a better fit for me. It is just slightly too deep (thick) for my small frame. I do like the matte dial, domed crystal and ceramic bezel though!

Steph,

I've seen you wearing a Panerai and 7 watches at the same time, so the Deep Sea should feel like being naked compared to that

i think wide [gents 40mm+] watches look great on ladies but the depth and thickness of the DSSD kills it [for the fairer sex] , just my thoughts

IMO a large watch on a small wristed man looks wrong.

A large watch on a small wristed lady looks excellent.
go for it.

As long as it does not flop around on your wrist it's okay.
