[Seriously]

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

After a day wearing this thing, comfort is certainly a word that doesn't come to my mind. I'm pretty sure I will never buy a similar watch again.


P.S.: That's not a Sinn, that's a Penitence.

I've got the Puck with is similar diameter - 2mm more actually, I would have to check the weight though

Strangely enough, the Breitling's case size doesn't bother me; the lug to lug distance is not that big and the watch sits on the wrist perfectly. The heaviness, on the other side, is hardly acceptable. I guess it wouldn't matter, if it was used for its intended purpose: diving. Not being the case...

[Seriously]

Yeah the size never bothers me (it does have hidden lugs which help) - I've never really considered the weight either. I think if it's kept a snug fit it might help.
