Great comparison! I'm in the market for a Navitimer and want an ice blue. That one is. It available (yet?) In Europe in 41 mm size. Only 43. But seeing this comparison on your wrist with the 41 and 43, it's visible larger and don't like the step up to 43. This was so helpful! Sad I'm not near your store, otherwise I would visit for sure! Greetings from The Netherlands!
I would have thought all of these were too big for me, but you surprised me with the relatively short lug-to-lug on the 41-I think I could wear that one! I know the focus here is on the size range, not the straps, but let me ask anyone who has some experience with them-how comfortable is the strap?
I would have to try them on to decide between the 41 and the 43. I love the Navitimer, but Breitling's pricing has gotten a bit out of hand for me.....at about $7,000 - $7,500 I would be interested, but at over $9,000 now, that's just a bit steep, IMHO.
I like how you downplay the size on the thicker/larger models. Not everyone has a smaller wrist. Just show naturally. It is what it is!
Thanks, I do my best to be as objective as possible and know others have different size wrists.
41mm please Brad. 🙂
46mm is magnificent.
7.25 inch wrist and I prefer more compact watches, so I would go for the 41.
They all wear smaller than their dimensions would suggest, but I think the 41 would look great on any size wrist.
