Most Accurate Rep for 6" Wrist?

Hi RWI,

I'm looking to make my first Breitling purchase. What are the most accurate reps for a 6" wrist (about 50mm across the top of my wrist)?

The 44mm SoSF and 42mm BCE have come up in searches. Am I right in assuming that the 44mm SoSF is "the" most accurate Brietling rep, and the 42mm BCE as a "good" rep?

Is there a colorway of the SoSF and BCE that is most accurate?

What other Brietling options are there for my wrist size?

I dont think anything over 40mm will fit your wrist right.
Also forget Breitling if you got a small wrist.

I think you go better with Rolex.
Explorer I for example is very well repped.

It pains me to say this, but if I had a 6inch wrist, I'd get an omega constellation or a Rolex Day Date on a pres bracelet...

The 42mm abyss 2 would fit your wrist fine, it wears pretty small.

+1 on the Explorer 1. Get the 36mm.

I've got a 6.5" wrist and am starting to feel it's a tad small for my wrist. Should be perfect for your baby wrist!

+1 on the DayDate or even a Datejust
If the 36m is too small for you go for the DJII or DDII

Considering he's asking for a Breitling not really much use telling him about rolex reps.

The Steelfish on bracelet wears smaller than any other 44mm watch I own, actually a tad to small for my taste, I think it would fit a 6 inch wrist just fine.

Breitlings are somehow big and certainly a bit thick for 6" wrists...
...I have a SuperOcean myself and I don´t wear it that often, but I love it. It´s surely a nice chunk of metal.

I just saw the Abyss this last week and it at least *looked* almost the same size as the Rolex Submariner Ceramic I was wearing. I know it´s a display trick, but it doesn´t seem as big as the SuperOcean as well.
Byt the way, I have a 6,25" wrist, so, I don´t like wearing anything big, although I have 1 watch from each brand that are bigger than I would really like (Breitling, Cartier, Hublot).

Will try to post some pics later to give you an idea of the SOSF.

Also, there´s a thread here on RWI that was meant for small wrists like us.. 6,25" and below. search for that and it might be useful. There are tons of pictures there for different watches on small wrists.

Cheers,
Spirit.

I'm sure they do a sub 40 mm navi gen... Can't remember if it was datora or mont brilliant, but I think it was 38mm...

Never seen the rep though...

IMHO it is too big for your wrist and does not look right. The lugs look like they extend past your wrist and looks very awkward and out of place. I hate saying it bud.... But it's true

Agreed... But, if you like it, go hard! At least you're enjoying your watch :)
