    Good day, IWL.

    I'm afraid you may be missing the irony - it's a beautiful and sunny day (26ºC) here.

    The weight and the thickness of the watch, those are the big issues. And of course, the dress code distortion is more than obvious.

    No, I didn't

    If you look elsewhere here you might find a beautiful sky I witnessed this morning, whilst pretty darn cold at the time (3c) it was lovely, now it's just grey.

    Out of curiosity what diameter is that behemoth ?

    Directly from the Breitling web

    Dimensions
    Diameter 45.00 mm
    Thickness 18.39 mm
    Weight (without strap) 93.00 g.

    It's quite something, isn't it? But the weight and the thickness are much more problematic, than the diameter.

    I think that Sinn 144 I was looking at is similar weight - EDIT: 90 grammes without strap, but only 40.6mm diameter thickness a more modest 14.5mm
