Wrist circumference is irrelevant, what counts is the width of your wrist in top down view + your overall appearance: If the lugs aren't close to overhanging your wrist or at least don't overhang (danger territory), then you are good to go.
For date nights I actually find this a very nice piece of man jewellery. For anything seriously formal this is not the right watch.
What is worse than risking your life for a Rolex? Risking your life for a cheap knock-off.
I even went one step further before my last trip: Usually my travel watch was an Alpina Alpiner 4, which I bought used for 450$. Do thieves know it was only 450$? No. Does it look nice and shiny enough, that they might get the impression it costs more? Definitely. Do I want to risk anything for this amount of money? Definitely not.
So I bought myself a classic Resin G-Shock.
I chose Saphire years ago, because I hate scratches I will see every day. Never regretted the decision.
Really nice trio!
What I find interesting is that the Grand Seiko actually looks bigger than the Speedy? Is it just the perspective? I am very interested in that very model, but I got so used to wearing big watches, that everything smaller than my Speedy feels too small. That's why I couldn't convince myself to buy a 40mm GS yet.
