Hey guys, I need you to help me out! What do you think, is the Zinex Trimix PVD too big for my wrist? I don't want it to look stupid goofy For you to be able to make an opinion, here are some pics with the Deepsea, Triton, Panerai Thank you Attachment: DSC00601.JPG (Downloaded 228 times)

Jayo, the watches are just right for your wrist. My wrist is just 6.75 inches but all my watches are large. My smallest ones are 40mm and I hardly wear them. My faves are in 44mm to 48mm. Nothing wrong with the Trimix too. I think it depends on your lifestyle. If you wear suits to the office, wearing a big watch might not be practical for your shirt cuffs. If you're in the field lots, like me, I go for the really big ones!!! Wear them big, amigohand6.gif

thank you guys! And another question about the PVD! Does it come off easy or is it hard so if you bump you don't see the steel shining trough?

I don't know why size is such an issue for most especially with this Trimix?....I would be looking more into why is the Trimix so expensive when it is made in China and houses a movement in the GMT version (eta 2836 modified gmt) that is used mainly by cheap replica watchmakers.... this movement does not exist in the eta catalogue and is not Swiss but Asian modified?....plus all the claims of it being a original design/ground up?.....other than that the Trimix is a great looking watch but then I have always liked the case design of the Rotary Aquadive from the 70's which it resembles...face4.gif Attachment: aquadive2.jpg (Downloaded 198 times)

That's great info, Oscar. Good to know. Hmmmmmm...... The mesh on the Trimix posted combines to make the watch a winner and I love the look. Jayo, on the PVD query of yours, I'm not sure. I recall seeing some traffic on other forums that if bumped or dinged hard enough, it chips off and you see some shiny steel underneath. Pressed zinc oxide, not forged zinc oxide, they say is the best because it's black all the way to the other side. Panerai's elusive all black Radiomir Black Seal ( I think it's a phantom watch) uses this pressed format. Very sturdy and tough they say.

The movement is Swiss in the Nitrox but the watch is made in China....nothing wrong with that and I have seen some nice deals popping up on the Nitrox lately....Congrats Jayo! ![]()
