I am very happy to have this community of distant friends. I hope you are all thriving. Notice that I didn't say "virtual friends" because you are all real. Zelos Visionary SS meteorite for Wednesday (40 x 11 mm, SW200 movement, LE of 175.)
Too many watches, not enough wrists.

Prompted by Wayne's acquisition, yesterday - Combat 7 Vintage today:
The specs say it's 41mm, but my calipers say it's 42.2mm; and 34mm of that is actual dial, so it wears on the large side.

You made me get out my calipers. I get almost 42mm diameter, 47mm tip to tip, almost 13mm thick. Tough to get a diameter with the integrated crown guard.
For comparison:
IWC XVII - 41x11x51
Fortis B-42 GMT - 42x12.75x52
The short lugs on the Glycine work well to make it wear a little smaller. It should be a thinner watch, but for the price it's very good.
And, of course, joining you with mine.

I measured across 2 & 8 and got 42.3mm; then across 4 & 10 and got 42.2mm.

It's definitely larger than the advertised 41mm.
