Cynikal.Mindset 1 Posted September 4, 2013 So, I caved and picked one of these up on m2m sales the other day (patiently awaiting its arrival). I know this thing is small at 37mm and I damn well hope I like it on my wrist as much as I like looking at in pictures. So, I ask of you fellow forum mates is to post up some wristies for me...please! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baxter 6 Posted September 4, 2013 They are small but somehow manage to have a nice wrist presence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leedsbear 0 Posted September 10, 2013 I have a gen Sub and a 42mm Omega CrPO - would be interested to see a vintage Daytona comparison with other watches - I don't have a massive wrist but prefer the 42mm size watched - even dropping back to my gen Sub feels a tad small now so dropping further down to 37mm will indeed feel strange. Would be great to see some photos Cynikal.Mindset when you get it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 83 Posted September 10, 2013 for comparison. 47mm PAM on the same wrist Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DC109 0 Posted September 11, 2013 Awesome! Having never seriously looked at vintage Daytonas, I had no idea they were that compact. Also not having looked at them, I don't know any one maker's from another, but greg_r, that one looks great. What maker is it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cynikal.Mindset 1 Posted September 13, 2013 well I have mine now and I've been wearing it since it came in the mail and the smaller size of it does't bother me at all and I usually wear a Super Avenger! Thats a whole centimeter difference in case size (nearly half an inch for you non-metric fakahs) this movement like greg said is probably the best feeling asian movement to set, chrono function and the like...its just smooth and perfect.
