Ignore Ken??? :shock:  Surely, you jest......:D   He makes it impossible!  ;)

Marc sent me a link and I saw a tonneau that wasn't bad at all. I don't know that much about Stovard Jurgenson, but a manual wind = heaven!  That's one great looking timepiece!

S T O P already......rofl.

Mr. McWright/mcwright:  enough already.........it's going to take time to go through all your offerings.  Orolus is a good outfit with which to deal.

Thank you very much.  They ARE out there, but you guys seem to be the ones who know where to look.

My appreciation..........oy, yoy, yoy--forgot about those bloody butterflies.....lol  :D

How could you possibly know that I cannot abide open-heart complications (shudder).......they wanted to make me a Tourbillon over at the other place and I had to beg to remain a Complication......really!  rofl.

Sir--note the diameters; too wide for me, which is what usually eliminates Trias from the loop (and most other brands)  Cannot do 40mm + crown--it's a saucer on my wrist; over that, it's a dinner plate.

Ahh, OG....always the diplomat.  :)

I'll drop it out of consideration for you.  However. . .  ;)

Did the rest of you consider it "whine, whine, whine"?  If so, I must take my problems to that other place, from whence I am banned.

I feel that I stated my case in a rather ladylike fashion--ticked, but ladylike.  That "gentleman" ought to be chastised in some way, shape, or form.  HAH! that's a laugh.  :D

And, with this, I bid you all adieu.  ;)

"He who laughs last . . . " fella.  Just keep that in mind.  Pistols or swords at dawn (or is it later in the day?) :?   Maybe arm-to-arm combat???.......rofl:D

Mr. jakisbck (hey, I misspelt it earlier and apologize)--how'd you know Jacky was around?  Thanks for talking to him about my situation.

No one can possibly spend more time researching watches than he does.

Thanks again. :)

Jacky I think they want to know from where as well so, maybe you should post the location and or maybe price.

Jacky why dont you suggest the Seiko5 that'll surely fit someone with a small wrist as well as fit the bill being an AUTO:cool:

Jacky, I'm sorry.  With all the responses flooding this thread, somehow or another, I missed yours.  Now I know what jakisbck (is that spelled right?) was talking about.

This reminds me of the Zeno Explorer. Sure looks similar.  At this point, everything's starting to look the same. :?

Thank you very much, Jacky.  :)

Hello Toni I was wondering what is your wrist size? also dont worry about the mis-spelled name it happens :cool:

Here's another Zeno you might want to checkout:

I have a 6" wrist.  Please don't knock yourself out. In all honesty, this one didn't "talk" to me. However, I'll have to read all the info and let it sink in.

Many thanks for this link.  :)

Just an idea, a friend of mine wears the mid. size 33mm Roman.  She really likes it and it is complicated, ETA 2892/2 with power reserve and independent GMT.  The bracelet and watch are much better designed then the pic shows.  The only thing is she wishes that it had blue hands like mine.  Her wrist is about a 6 may be a bit smaller plays well on her wrist.

I do like it. Think it's more attractive than the larger one with the shark strap.  Blue hands would really make a big difference.  Like the crown and coin-edge bezel, but the price is more than I want to spend.  :(

Thank you for the link and for the post.  :)

(was wondering if and when you'd join the fray.....lol)

Onething for sure it's narrowing down to something that looks like a man watches but can be worn by a woman also, the price range seems to be below $250. Has to be auto or mechanical and nevermind about the zeno I showed you it was only a test to see what you like and dis-like.
