NEW Guinand chronograph being launched...?
Recent Comments
I often wear my Guinand chronographs, with a height of app 15mm, on my 16cm "stick like" wrists. It works fine, as the lug width fits my wrist. I also make sure to wear them quite tight on my wrist, to avoid too much wobble around.
So I would say, that max height depends on: lug width, strap type and case shape (does it bed nicely into you wrist or not). That being said, I never get as comfortabel a wear with the Guinands, as I do with my super flat Nomos Tangentes.
In regards to the asthetics, well thats up to the wearer.
I wear mine on the "aligator" it came with years ago - but also sometimes a black Nato. But its hard to go wrong with any strap, with the Speedmaster.
Why this assumption, that a movement containing a plastic component, wont last as long as an identical metal component? From an engineering standpoint, this makes no sense at all.
"Applied" markers and logos, that are actually embossed.
Bracelets in general, but especially when fitted with long bulky clasps.
Watches that are simply uncomfortable to wear.
Tool watches (divers especially) with fashion coloured and textured dials.... YAK.....
Chronographs with unreadable subdials.
Such a cool watch, from a truely forward thinking brand - that havent forgotten about customer service. I own two Tangente watches, a manual and the Blaugold automatic. Love them both to bits.
I have been eyeing the Zürich for a while now, the white version especially is stunning. I have 16cm wrists, and are used the to 35mm Tangentes (but also wear various auto chronos, so used to bulky watches too), so the size does concern me a bit though.
But damn, its a cool watch 👍🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪
I use mine especially when working (engineering) in factory zones, with potential explosive gasses. Here I canr use a phone or quartz, but a mechanical chronograph is safe and allowed.
And apart from that - they just look damn cool ☺
