Therapy session - How to get used to a watch that seems too large (41mm Bond SMP). Or should I move on?

Can I cut this to the chase? Get the full size. Many watches work best at 34, 36, 38mm. The SMP does not. Just buy the 41mm and make it work.

I’m pretty sure he has the full size 41 mm. It feels too big for him.

Even Prince bloody William wishes his mother had thought ahead, she bought the child size for him, when he was a child. Now it looks daft.
Pretty sure he already owns the full size 41 mm. He doesn't like the way it feels.

for how long have you been wearing these watches?

The SMP's I've worn off and on for more than five years.

I agree with you that the 36.25mm SMP looks too small. I own one. But the 37-38mm TAG Heuer 1000 and 2000 do not. The TAG Heuer 39mm Aquaracer is not too small. The Tudor Black Bay 58 (39mm) is not too small. I also owned the Tudor Black Bay 54 (37mm) and loved it. I only sold it because I prefer blue dial watches.

If Omega comes out with the long-rumored 39ish mm SMP I will probably buy it and make that my daily.

Edit - I already own the 2531.80 and 2541.80 SMP's that are 41mm.
