    yes it is a ladies watch but men's watches these days are too big for my skinny wrist. Academic anyway as I'm not going to pay that kind of money for a watch.

    Still can't open the link, but I can understand your problem. IMO, today's men's watches are far too big, chunky and 'macho'. It's probably fashionable, but my watch of 50 years has a dial diameter of about 26.5mm:



    I hope the current trend for big watches has run it's course.

    I also think that a lot of current men's watches (particularly Rolex) are too 'blingy'.

    Nice, is that a yellow dial or just 'yellowed'? I have large hands and normal sized bone structure, but little muscle, so I also like to wear smaller watches, max 40mm, preferable size is 38mm, but also wear old 36mms. For me austere is the best look for watches, one or two colours, brushed metal rather than shiny, and absolutely no ****ing diamantes!!
