 I had coffee with an old boss of mine yesterday. I wore my new 43mm Ball Night Train and he had on his 20 some year-old Rolex President in yellow gold.

The old Rolex President looked tiny compared with my Ball. I'm not sure the size of the Rolex, but I'd guess it was 36 to 38mm. It was an interesting comparison in terms of case size and how big watches have become. FWIW, the watch STILL looked good on his wrist and he is a large size man with an 8.5-inch wrist.

I also just bought a vintage Seiko moonphase quartz for a friend. It is a man's watch. Size is 32mm.
