Wristwatch collectors out there?

Just picked this up this past week. I now have the bracelet version and the strap version. It came with a canvas strap but it was really uncomfortable and didn't adjust well. Decided to buy a Hirsch strap to put on and now I absolutely love this watch. Fairly cheap and just a great watch.

Alright, I can see that some of you guys are way bigger than me. 53mm would look pretty silly on my small wrist. Here's my biggest watch at 37mm. A Bvlgari Solotempo.

Unique styling of the 12 and 6 hands.

it was 53 with the crown, maybe closer to a 47mm.

I personally wouldn't wear anything smaller than 43mm because it would look just plain silly on my big wrist. That is a very cool design regardless.

And to MikeyC, the Stuhrling i bought isn't an hommage to any particular breitling although after further examination it does look like it robs a bunch of characteristics from several different brietlings, the bezel resembles the Bentley 6.75 for sure. Maybe all the breitling influence is why i like it so much.

Im sure it is but the watch itself doesn't change, how many times do we need to see it?
