Small wrist/Large hand

My son-in-law also has very small wrists; we have removed 4 1/2 links and it is still loose enough that it easily slides over his wrist bone. We are now at the point that removing any further links will make it difficult to get the watch over his hand and onto his wrist. I think he is just going to put his standard size Seamaster on a strap and put the bracelet away. His watch does not really seem overly large because of his hand size.
I do agree that the black dial is more versatile as an accessory, for my slightly older tastes I like the white dialed Seamaster GMT. However, you are going to look at that watch many times a day for years, it only has to appeal to you. Some watches are so outrageously designed now that I doubt a young guy in Med School would have any concerns with an Omega with a blue dial.
