now you're just bragging.
I tried one on, light as a feather. Couldn't pull it off. I'm hoping future update will be more ahem, "asian friendly".

😬

now I better understand your comment!

To be fair there are many amazing vintage pieces I wish were made better for big wrists

Dollars to donuts that if they are actually worn, they would fail due to flexing. This strongly comes under the "Ok, you can do it - but should you?" category. Also this looks like an absolute piece of Cracker Jack toy BS compared to the Bvlgari Octo Finissimo Ultra, which is $400K, and has an actual bracelet. As I've said for a long time, RM watches are a way to separate wealthy people with no taste from their money.

This one is way uglier if you ask me, like really ugly while the RM is just peculiar, so I like it.

It's not the watch. It's the dude wearing it. 1) This won't work on wirsts under 7". 2) He practically wears it on his hand. I can't imagine a shittier way to present a watch--this is from a watch blogger, no less.

Could have just hold the damn watch and photograph it. The watch wears him.

Could also be pressed into service as a shim beneath a wonky cafe table leg.

Or be used as a caseback knife 😁

Skinny-wristed Scandinavian here, same issue. That, and the price naturally. I would love to be able to wear/afford one.

I get it. It really is a marvelous technical achievement. But 2M watch with a velcro strap? I'm sorry, WTF?

Well, a Bund strap would sort of defeat the purpose 😁

Almost 8” wrist, when it’s hot.

At 101F this afternoon, that would have been my wrist size when I was outside on the lawn a little while ago. Otherwise it's a 7.75" wrist when making snowmen.

I will say I think the Piaget is WAY better looking, but I do not in any way find this unattractive:

It's absolutely unique - and puts the RM to shame I think. But the Piaget is so nice and way more traditional.

And citizen at 2.98mm for 3,500 or whatever can save you a few quid
