The 39mm wears massive because it is all dial, the 41mm is just too big, as for the 49mm, dont go there unless you are Flavor Flave.

i can't even tell which is the 36 and which is the 39 on your wrist.

the only time i see the size difference is when the two watches are next to one another.

does this watch wear big?

what is the 36 and 39 L2L?

Here are both side by side:

36 mm on left:




36 mm on right:




39 mm on right:




The railmaster does wears big. If not mistaken, L2L of the 36 mm model (2504.52) is 44 mm while on the 39 mm model (2503.52) is 46 mm so 2 mm difference in length

close up pics it's a noticeable size difference side by side.

far away pics side by side much less noticeable

individual pics of either look identical

i didn't know if this watch feel into that category or not. it looked fine in pics on a 7" wrist. and i have the same size and i'm considering buying one.

i do know if it's massive dial, opting to the 36mm might be the right move.

i've bought a 40mm zodiac cosc jetomatic and it wears huge and i had to return it. i also bought a alpina seastong heritage <5 bills new and it was too big @ 42mm and 50L2L..i wanted to keep it for the cost but i knew it would never fly.

the zodiac wears massive for 40mm..even with a 7" wrist

i wanted to keep this as well since i paid less than 1k new but it would never fly as well.

i'm still researching this

the 36mm is actually 35.5 & 43.50 lug to lug <<<<<<that is pretty small imo

the 39mm is 39mm and 47mm lug to lug

as to the 39 wearing big. i guess because the dial is huge it wears bigger? it doesn't look awkward at all in the pics.

generally, whenever i see any pic of any watch up close the watch looks bigger than it is. and when it's a distance shot it looks smaller. this is very deceiving as you could easily say the watch looks too big with close up pic

I measured my 2504.52 and the lug to lug size is 44 mm while the 39 mm 2503.52 was 46 mm. The 39 mm 2503.52 is actually as long as a 41 mm Seamaster 2254, so pretty long for a 39 mm watch.

my sinn 556 is all dial as well and it's 38.5 and 45mm L2L

i would even say this watch wears smaller than the dimensions indicate on a 7" wrist even with a dial that's in your face.

i'm now seeing that somebody reported that the 39mm is actually a shade bigger @ 39.2...ugghhhhh

this version is more readily available and much less expensive than the 36mm.

if the 39mm watch isn't awkward on, saving around 1k over the perceived rarity of the 36mm has to trump things for me.

my naked thoughts are the 39mm should be fine and the 36mm might be just a little too small with the specs i see

thing is i can't try it on before i buy............haha

Beautiful watch. i love these because there is something about them that says "workhorse" and "elegant" at the same time. Looks amazing on the gator and snoopy, I love these off the bracelet. Congrats!

The 39 mm 2503.52 is a great choice too; in my case prefer the smaller size sibling look fit in my 7 inch round wrist so kept looking until found the 36 mm. 39 mm is indeed cheaper and more widely available than the 36 mm model, which understand started production later than the 39 and 41 mm versions. Lovely watch on any size, wish you can find one you like!!! 😀
