Crown stripping on Planet Ocean?

Hi guys, I've heard that the crown is stripped quite commonly on PO's which is putting me off them a bit. Is this only the case on the 42mm or on the 45 as well. I'm trying to decide which size to go for as my wrists are just short of 7' so ideally the 42 would be best but if there is a higher risk of problems then I would settle for the 45m?

Thanks

I have a V5 PO42mm and I can tell you that I could see where if you were to man-handle the crown it could easily strip as the threads seem very fine. But given due attention when making adjustments you should be fine. I have had no issues thus far, and the quality and accuracy of this rep is awesome.

Definitely get a 5GPO for 7" wrist. :)
