I always liked this wartche, but the lack of a seconds hand is a deal killer for me.

I find tv watches to be like the guys who raise their truck you need a fricken ladder to get in. It’s a attempt to look cool... that’s all.

Reminds me of the current Rado DiaMaster Thinline rather than of 1960s Hamilton Intra-Matic models. No less, I find it quite nice.

Agree. Found 36-40mm just right for my 7.5" wrist.

Yeppers.
Especially with the "all dial" look.
Silly looking for a dress type watch.

My guess is that amongst the general public, this kind of watch is as much a daily wearer as it is a dress watch..as such, 42mm is in the ball park for a lot of wrists out there..

Had clients who whined about 42mm being...too small. But then again, the first thing to enter the shop were their bellies, then followed by the rest of the whiny hippopotamus.

The visual of this has me grinning. Definitely need all the grins I can find these days.
