lmao, you are famous now the first QC!

I am still waiting to see blue dial before I pull the trigger on this but once you get it and can give a mini review, that would be amazing

what are the chances for a 38mm?

we would all love to know. I am curious if any TD's have a connection with APW and can put in a good word for us

All speculation at this point. My honest assessment? Probably not unless this model sells very well. How many factories released a 38mm 7750? Only OMF. Should tell you loads about the state of 38mm AP chrono in rep market.

Another question is if the rep movement fits a 38 mm case.

I don’t get it though. It’s not like Asian people have huge wrists.

I don’t get it though. It’s not like Asian people have huge wrists.

Then why did factories bother to rep Panerai, and Breitling 44mm, 45mm, VS repped the 43 and 45mm Planet Oceans. By your logic they would not rep anything above 40mm since non of these models would fit any Asian right?

You're assuming all asians have small wrists but like I said in this thread, China has 800+ million people, some of them have large wrists and the stigma of <40mm being woman's size.

The majority of people buying watches don't really care about arbitrary rules of lug overhang about what they can and can't wear. That's only for watch nerds online.

Additionally it's about business in replicas, pure and simple, if there's money in a 38mm Chrono then they would rep it. 100 people in a RWI thread does not make a market for a replica.

My neighbor Pauline does. What flava flav wears round his neck, she wears round her wrist and makes it look like 47mm

Agreed. I have 7 inch wrists and I wouldn’t wear anything smaller than 41 in a royal oak. Even something like a Rolex sub feels small to me.
