Just joined the Omega Speedmaster Family with my brand new Speedmaster Racing

So what is interesting is its a 44.25 mm case.

The actual bezel is like 42 mm. And the visible face is like 35 mm. After I got it I realized it did not look super large.

Compared it to my other watches that are 42 mm at the bezel, and it's the same.

It really wears more like a 42 mm 😀

That got me too. I was put off this version because of the 44mm (and a quarter) size. If it wears like a 42, it's probably going to be OK

In the same way, I didn't appreciate that the speedmaster professional only has a 40mm dial, and the 42mm spec includes the slightly oversized button protectors.

Maybe it's the lighting, maybe the Speedy is a little closer. 45.5 vs 44.25
