I wish I had the new Ed White to help you with the decision, but I'm sure someone with deeper pockets will chime in shortly.
Welcome back! I hope to see @JwRosenthal back from his hibernation one of these days, too.
YMMV, better to try it out before deciding.
Here’s my Snoopy 50th, ST1, and 321 EdWhite. My wrist is slender, ~16.7 cm, and I always feel 321 EdWhite is the easiest fit, despite l2l longer than the Snoopy.
I have owned 3861 sapphire before, could not find wristshot with it offhand, but wearing it would be easier because it’s thinner than the Snoopy.
Welcome back SC1. Owning Trilogy models, the 3861 professional and the Ed White- the 3861 is the easiest wearing on my smaller wrist.
I sold both heritage models of the Seamaster 300 as they were just on the longer side, especially the 2014 iteration.
The Ed White fits much better than those models, similarly to the Trilogy model you mentioned. If you like those you’ll wear the Ed White very well.
The watch is well worth the price of admission, and if you are anything like me you probably overthink an issue that does not actually matter or exist. Go for it. I’d happily keep just the Ed White over the others.
My wrist is 6.5 inches or thereabouts.
Regarding prices for used ones, you can do pretty well in Asia vs US prices. The money saved is significant enough to fund the trip from the U.S. and you can enjoy a vacation in Japan, Hong Kong, or Singapore to boot.
For those with the Ed White and 3861 Speedmaster how do they compare in fit in the wrist? What about the 321 versus the modern FOIS (1st 1861 or second 3861 generations) ?
