So I've recently become obsess--err interested with rep watches and have ordered a couple. The only issue I have, is I am 6 foot 4, former defensive lineman, so I need MAN-SIZED watches. :) I am looking for recommendations of cool bigger (46mm+) watches. If they are close to the gen, GREAT, but I'm just looking for awesome timepieces. I love a variety.


So far here's what I've got:
48mm Hublot Big Bang Power King (all black)
50mm U-Boat Flightdeck PVD Carbon Fiber
48mm Corum Ultimate Challenger Admiral's Cup


Here's what I've got my eye on:
47mm Panerai Radiomir
46mm Graham Oversized Chronofighter Scarab
46mm Bell and Ross Heritage
51mm Rolex Deep Sea Challenge
IWC Big Pilot vintage

Here's where you tell me the cool stuff I haven't found yet!

How much you weigh, hoss? Hard to think that 44-45mm PAMS wouldn't be suitable.

280, but I'm all upper body. When I stopped playing, I slowed down on the legs portion of my workout!

(8.25" wrists)

Being a lover of big watches myself, I personally enjoy my Scarab (as you already know!) and My U-Boat Classico. I have a Hublot (fantasy) now, a Hublot BB King on the way, and I have my eye on a Hub 4000m Diver.

That said, I would also recommend mixing it up a bit. I have a PAM 111H that I wear often, I have another Pam on the way, and the Arktos is always on my mind! LOL!

You could be 7' tall, 300lb, but your wrist could be 6,5". So, your height/weight have nothing to do with watches size.

Our beloved Kenny is 6'2", about 220lb, bodybuilder, and he has small wrist.
Go figure.
