Re: Aqua Terra standard size vs. mid size
In Response To: Re: Aqua Terra standard size vs. mid size ()

Joey's observations are just so spot on, i wouldn't change a word. Although i went with the AT Railmaster, my size selection process went exactly as he described! And i opted for the standard 39mm size after trying on the 36/39/42. IMHO, the AT and AT railmaster designs are elegantly simple "classics" with clean, legible lines, that won't go out of fashion at any size! Happy hunting, let us know what you go with after you try them on. Enjoy!

: Thanks, this was very helpful. I've tried on
: the different sizes, and you have a very
: good point about the size of the AT face,
: given its slim bezel. In some ways the
: mid-size at 36mm looks as big on the wrist
: as 39mm watches with large bezels. So, now I
: just need to make up my mind about the look
: I prefer: the traditional look of the
: mid-size or the bolder look of the 39mm (and
: make a bet on what will stay in fashion :-).
: Thanks again,

: Jim
