my wrist is smaller (5.8") where 39.5mm is the better option, but i chose the 41.5mm instead mainly because of the size proportion and less crowded dial.
I bought my 39.5mm Oris Aquis two years ago and love it. I had them special order my version which has a black matte brushed ceramic insert, matte black dial and fully brushed bracelet. I have the same size wrist (6.5”) and I much preferred the 39.5mm over the larger 41.5mm, though my version wasn’t available in that size. I preferred to get the SW200 movement as the servicing is much cheaper and can be done anywhere. Absolutely love the watch though. Very high quality and a beautiful design. Can’t recommend an Aquis enough.
I’m on the verge of pulling the trigger on the calibre 400, i do love the sellita version but the sunburst dials of the calibre 400s are just too good. I went back a couple of times just to see the watch again. 😂 like an annoying customer that i am, but it’s not a cheap watch, it needs some thinking but i agree with you regarding how beautiful the watch is, and the quality, is too good for the price point. I just couldn’t decide which one to get between the 3 colours. They are all amazing. 💆🏼♂️😂
I actually think the dimmer light makes them look better. My local AD has very bright lights, it can make watches look shallow somehow. I’m thinking of getting the 41.5mm in blue, agree that the new dials are something else!
Good point. In person, dim or bright light, they all look awesome. 🤩 and yet here i am, still haven’t decided on which one. Good thing they are all easy to get. I’ve tried them multiple times but i’m getting close to picking one. I’m still betting on the green but the blue and grey just gets me every time! 😂
