I actually went in to look at the Pelagos 39, but gave this a try and LOVED the matte blue. I always figured the full size Pelagos would be too big for my 6.75" wrist (and it probably is slightly too big, however not as bad as it appears in this pic), but I was wearing my Forerunner 945 at the time and its 47mm dial is so much larger that this looked reasonable in comparison. It’s definitely thick, but I have found it to be easy to wear, unlike the Garmin who’s rubber strap and plastic case always seem to catch my sleeves. Anyways, super cool watch!
Lol, I’m a huge fan of the older no-date subs for their versatility and practicality, but I think that these ooze character and really stand out in the endless sea of black faced dive watches.
