Wow so the lug to lug is over 50mm. The diameter at 44.8 really isn’t that crazy. I mean there are plenty of watches in that size. But IMO that is an intense lug to lug. Mind you that’s just my opinion I have a hang up on lug to lug size and a lot of it has to do with my job but that has no bearing on this topic. So yeah I’m not going to trash a watch because there is something I don’t like about it. Like I said I’m not in the market for one anyway. That is actually a desirable size for many people these days. Beautiful looking timepiece. I even like the “power indicator” sorry I’m using the wrong word it’s not coming to me right now long week. I hear some people complain about that and the text sometimes saying it clogs up the dial, I like it all. So enjoy and wear in good health.
maybe I can ask you. This year I will be making one, major watch purchase” well for me it’s major. It’s most likely going to be a seamaster but Tudor and GS are on the short list. Have you yet had to service a spring drive. I’ve heard tell for a period of time the GS or at least the spring drive needed to go to Japan for service. Then I heard they now have a location in the US that services them. I’m curious about that and the price difference say seiko servicing a spring drive and maybe omega servicing one of their co axials. Just curious I can look it up again but I was getting conflicting info in cases like that I like to talk to humans who have done it.
