But the IW500901 has less lum markers. It only has 4 lum markers at @12, @3, @6, @9

Performance out of the box (lift angle was probably set wrong so amplitude might be meaningless):

Good accuracy here.

What's about annoying rotor winding sound while wearing?

Is it quit or does large case back amplifies it?

What are your thoughts on the rep strap?

It is quite silent, probably due to soft metal cap inside.

Thanks! My wrist is about 6.8", I wonder if I can pull this off...

I don't think my 7" can do it. It's a preference thing of course, but I really don't the look. The wrist looks so small when you got a big watch on it. Like a child with a grown up watch.

I do love this watch so it sucks that I'm not a 8"

I got my QC pictures, I requested a few more dates to be shown as it appears it might be off a bit. I might just be going crazy, but I figured I would confirm by looking at a few other dates.

I can pull off a PAM372, so will try this one. I can always flip it...

Correct for the 5009-01. But this is NOT a rep of the 5009-01. This is a rep of the 5009-08 "Petite Prince". The gen has lumed all hands and all ciphers like the rep.

Bro, its not always about the wrist size.
I would rather have a 6.8" wrist with a Beckham body than a 8" wrist because I am fat.
My buddy around me has wrist below 7" and pull off 47mm nicely.
Wrist size ain't really important after all when you have a good size biceps.

Well put. This watch doesn't really look huge. In fact I think it's just nice for my puny wrist.

I'm 7.4" and I have had GEN BP Petit Prince on my wrist, defo bulky and heavy watch. Currently I'm wearing 47mm Pam 587 as my daily driver but his sleek design fits me better than bulkiness of the BP. I presume that rep is going to be even thicker than the Gen as usually in rep industry.
