Dear fellow horologists,
I have now owned a very lovely Tudor Black Bay 58 for a few months now and I am having some serious concerns.....
Is this watch too small for my wrist (19cm)?
Do I prefer a Pelagos?
While the 'right' size of the watch against my wrist is subjective, I do think I find it a bit too small for my liking.
I went in to my local dealer this morning to try on the Pelagos, sold the last one on Tuesday, so I tried on the 41mm Royal. I did find the larger size more pleasing.
I am pretty convinced I prefer the Pelagos...but I still find myself slightly unsure.
I will need to sell one to fund the other so there is no question of buying an additional watch.
Is there any defining advice (anecdotal or otherwise) which my fellow horologists can impart to help me decide either way?
