But at 39mm in an era downstream of the commercial success of watches like the Tudor Black Bay 58 the sizing seems just right. And where the case width
link has shrunk by 3mm the lug-to-lug is more than 5mm shorter than on the 42mm model from
link 52.4mm to
link 47mm. For a watch that was often noted as being quite long in the case too long for my wrist this change might be the secret to making this beautiful design suit a wider range of wrists.
