Don't care for the proportions. Way too thick for a 39mm watch and too long.

Case Diameter 39mm
Bezel Diameter 39mm
Length from lug to lug 49mm
Case height 14.8mm
No, it's not Tourettes.

I love this one. Super tempted.
39mm is a tad small but the length is good which is important for me

I actually don't think 14.8mm is ridiculously thick for a chronograph these days, especially with a 7750/7753 inside. By comparison, a Sinn 103 Sapphire is 17mm at 41mm wide.

Having said that, I'd agree this watch would be improved with a diameter of 40-42mm, would better match the 49mm LTL.

I like this a lot, but feel 39mm will be too small for me. Still find myself very tempted to give it a shot. I wish I could see it next to something like the 39mm Tudor Black Bay just to see how it compares.

Too cool J ! 8-) :) As if the classic style wasn’t nice enough,
then they add that vintage stealthy finish right? ;) It’s just
fantastic, and adds more character to a watch and company
that already has a ton of character.

Can’t thank you enough for the look !!!

Not interested at 39mm x 15mm
