With the bracelet able to drop at 90+ degrees from the lugs, this watch suits puny wrists like mine quite well.

Fantastic shots, thanks for sharing. Makes me interested in this model again. Agreed with the above posts on the blue dial - I'm usually not a fan, but this looks great.
I'll also add that the blued steel hands of the gen look AWESOME in these macro shots. Love the finishing!
Lol...
always amusing how the loud the skinny wrist vocal minority is...
Honestly can't get enough of it. I wish every post was about this. Just so enjoyable.
In all seriousness, lots of 38mm watches out there. Go find one and enjoy it. I'm not in the 38mm watch section bitchin about them not being bigger. Why do all of you dainty guys always gotta be bitchin about making watches smaller?

So you presume that just because I asked for a 38mm that I'm dainty.... Ok then. Clearly you don't know me. So just hush. Wish there was a block button here.

Do they make a block button for any posts about making watches smaller in threads that have nothing to do with that whatsoever? Sign me up for that one...
They probably only make what they think they can sell most of. Unfortunately since not everybody wants to look like a prole with a refrigerator sized watch on his wrist.

Sounds logical enough. I suppose so yeah, it's probably not worth the effort to make a smaller case and dial if the demand isn't really there I guess..hmmm. I have a 7" wrist so I can wear 41-42mm watches just about right, heck most of my watches including gens and a rep Omega are 41mm and above, but I do have other watches that are around the 38-39mm range such as my Steinhart and Seiko.
Thankfully my wrist size works well for both sizes without making any watch I have be too big or too small. I have a gen 41.5mm vertical teak AT, so I was thinking of getting a rep 38mm horizontal teak AT if they were to do it. A pity they don't make it tbh so buyers have more options, oh well.
I too have a wrist that can accomodate botth sizes, 7 1/8" to be precise, my Speedy fits OK. But that is a tool watch that is aupposed to be super legible when traversing the moon.
I would prefer a smaller sized watch but to all intent and purpose the AT "wears small."
Been lusting for one for quite some time. May just pull the trigger on that lovely AT World Timer that is reviewed here. Which is even bigger I think ... oh well
