Hello everyone,

I am in the process of buying an Omega Seamaster Professional "Bond" style and am looking for some information about the different sizes of this watch.

I was until recently going to go for the full-size model, until I saw someone else with thicker wrists than mine wearing the mid-size model. I am now undecided as to which size to go for. I have tried on both sizes several times in jewelers stores in my area, but I am still undecided.

My dilemma is thus:
I have about 6.5" inch wrists, and although the full-size SMP did not look extraordinarily large when I tried it on in the jewelery store, I have been wondering how many links would need to be removed to get the watch to fit my wrist. If there are only going to be 2 or 3 links left between the case and the clasp then it will look stupid and ridiculous; however the jeweler obviously cannot remove any links until the watch is paid for, thus I am left wondering what the watch will look like if I were to purchase it.

I personally prefer the full-size model but do not want to look like a pillock by wearing a watch with an absurdly small amount of links on the bracelet.

Also, are there any good comparison photos availible of the two sizes side-by side that I can view?

I would greatly appreciate any advice that anyone may have to offer.

Thanks in advance.
