This ^ and I like the short videos from Chrono24 that they recently started releasing. I’ve seen some Theo & Harris videos that I like but not the long format ones. I think I’m partial due to the fact that they feature some London Jewelers, a local AD. Bark & Jack reminds me if Crown & Caliber as it has a certain level of production value and the narrator seems like a nut (in a good way!)
I think it depends on the watch. If it’s a diver with a bezel, 38-43mm; if it's a dress watch 38 and under depending on the size of the bezel. If it's a field watch that also depends on the design. And then there's the mid case, is it tall? Is it chunky?
The best thing that I've done is try them on. It's like an article of clothing. They fit differently and one day you're in the mood for a heavy oversized dive watch on a bracelet weighing over 200 grams and some days you want the 35mm vintage reissue with acrylic crystal that disappears on wrist.
This Tag Heuer Aquaracer is in my collection (43mm) and the Longines was in my collection (35mm, I think?) i like how they both wear. My wrist size is just a touch under 7"
Lug to lug is important and so is the bracelet. A watch can be heavy but the bracelet may mitigate the weight. I think there’s such an art to designing these things. That’s why you don’t see the microbrand cases from the 2000’s with their slab sides en vogue anymore. Buyers have moved on.
