Just a little rant about the current trend to make watches bigger and thicker. It is winter in most parts of the country afterall. The cuffs on my shirts just won't button over these recent "barbells" that pose as time keepers. Am I the only one that appreciates the elegance of a thinner more conservativly designed watch? My Maurice Lacroix is 7mm thick, my Limes GMT is 9mm and I have a Jacques Lemans two hand quartz that is a sveldt 6mm thin. They are more comfortable to wear than the 46mmx16mm thick behemouths out there and that seems to be the new norm. Am I just becoming my father in my old age or are there a few sympathizers out there. Maybe I'm just turning into an old grouch. Or does everyone need to attend a "big watchaholic anonimous" meeting?
