Small (in all directions) Rodina handwind

[Der Amf]

They've taken the 38.5mm Rodina and shrunk it. Firstly the diameter is now 34.5mm. Secondly thanks to removing the self-winding rotor from the ST17 and using a solid caseback (which is thinner than the display back and which also hides whats presumably now a slightly odd-looking movement?) the watch is only 7.5mm think. Hopefully this will mean it sits better on the wrist: with those long lugs the standard one never sat snugly on the wrist

Unfortunately they've rather squished up the dial in the process:



Anyway: a small date-free manual, not too many of them on the market

I don't think the dial looks too bad actually. Good to see someone making smaller watches

[is that my watch]

I didn't find the 38.5mm wore that small, because of the long lug to lug and the height of lugs - when I replaced mine with the 40mm Zungu, it didn't feel like a had got something bigger, tbh (smaller dial as well)

well it felt small to me it seem to fit right in the centre not that it was a bad thing it was comfortable but just seem a bit lost on my wrist lol if that makes sense ?
