American Classics (London) advised me that the Iron Ranger sizes up a bit more again than the other boots. I.e.: you could size down a whole 1 size as long as you were not uber wide foot.

Everyone needs some 875s in their stable! I'll try to grab some pics of mine this weekend. They're on their second set of soles and they are my favorite pair of boots by far.

I've got a pair of GTs in black and Iron Rangers in Amber. Love both of them.
REI has some great deals on some RWs right now:

I'm thinking about purchasing the classic 875 work boot, how do these size? I'm normally a size 46 (EURO).

Can't give you any firsthand knowledge, but I've been considering both the Beckman and the Iron Ranger, myself. I like the sole of the Beckman better; the lugs seem like they'll give better traction, but I love the cap toe of the IR. If I could get the Beckman sole on the IR, I'd be set. I've even played with the idea of getting the IRs and immediately getting them resoled, despite the additional cost.
I think the Beckman is a tad more refined looking, so if you want a slightly dressier boot, go with that one. Otherwise, I say get the IRs.

I wear a 10.5 US in almost everything and a 10 in these.
I'd also mention checking out the 1907 model. Same design but nicer leather IMO and no glaring logo on the side…
I've worn mine almost daily for 2 years and I couldn't reccomend them enough. -
