      I love how photos distort the apparent size of a watch on the wrist.  I would never have guessed that's only a 36mm watch. It looks more like 40 or 42.

        The smaller size may work for me actually. I tried on some 38mm Hamiltons in the Spring and they looked borderline too big. It seems I have broad upper arms, big hands but cute little wrists.

              Eeeh… I’d like to think so, probably slightly more effeminate though.

                        Thanks! I don't know what it is about this watch, but I am so smitten with it. The aesthetic is so perfect for me, and I love looking at it. Plus, it's fun to wind every morning.

                                    I’m sure you know what I mean.
