Longines always seem to have long lugs. So did they have a 37mm in?? I'm interested to see what the silver wears like.
The 38.5mm, was it the sub seconds edition?? They do the cream and black which I tried and liked, but as you say, lug overhang ruined it for me. Would be interested to see if the all black crosshair version sits differently as the case looked slightly different I thought compared to the other 38.5mm.
Edit: Sorry basically what @edscoble said, missed that.

Tried a Longines Spirit 40mm, while I was getting a link taken out: too long across my wrist. I'd have liked the titanium one on a strap, but not paying new now.
My Superocean (42mm) sits much nicer and continues to reward my choice. The lip on the minute track catches the light sometimes and almost glows. Overall I think it looks better in low light.
I asked to try a 37mm Spirit and was offered a completely different Longines in 38.5mm. But helpfully I thought, they did tell me they would adjust the bracelet on purchase.
The part of the cost of buying a watch from Breitling, that goes towards making it a pleasure, is money well spent.
