: Any opinion's on 36 Vs 39?

I got the mid size (36mm) after deliberating for ages and am very happy with it. I have a 7" wrist. A lot of people would advise the larger size but it is personal preference. Probably more than 50% of sales people in jewellers advised me to go for the larger one... mostly, I suspect, to try to get me to take their 39mm stock off their hands. (My mid size had to be ordered in, so I know it's brand new and not handled or dropped by hundreds of customers). Anyway, spend some time with the watches on and use a large mirror to get the overall look. I just wanted mine to look like a watch, not a WATCH, if you know what I mean. It looks normal.

BTW I have the black as well - I love it. Good choice!

: Finally any opinions on what % off I should
: shoot for? Email me if that's to dicey for
: the forum.

If you are in the US, there is a dealer recommended by a lot of people on this and other forums. Email Keith Downing for a referral.

Good luck.
