Just ordered. Will arrive this week. There are a couple reviews on YouTube but not many. Went with the 36 mm as I have a 6.5 inch wrist. One review states the 39 mm wares more like a 41 or 42. Trying to kick the habit of getting so many micro brands so I recently sold all of them. Now I will be down to three watches. Black dial is the 39.5 mm Omega Planet Ocean, blue dial is the Tudor black Bay 58 also 39 mm and the white dial will be the sealander GMT 36 mm.

Tell me how it turns out! I tried one on at the Atlanta Intersect show…very impressed with how they pulled off the design in a smaller package!
Would not hesitate going with 36 mm if your wrist is like mine which is 6.5 in or even 7 in. Very comfortable great lume, The clasp is a little long but manageable. The quick release bracelet and the on the fly adjustments is a must-have.
I'm really torn myself between the 36 and the 39mm.
I have small wrists (less than 6.5in) but am afraid 36mm accentuate a feminine look that i absolutely don't want. It's so hard to choose without trying

All I can say is that my wrist is about 6.7 inches and my biggest watch is 38mm…everything else is 35-36mm. To this day, I still stick with 36mm because it sits just right in my eyes. The 36mm CW GMT was designed with proportionality in mind and in my opinion executed beautifully when I tried it on at the Intersect show. Also (with regards to femininity), 36mm has been the sorta default size for so-called men’s watches for decades, and yes I proudly share my watches with my daughter, so obviously I don’t let online opinions ruin my enjoyment of midsize watches.

How’s the time keeping on it? I know it’s not a COSC certified but was curious how well it actually runs

Thanks for the feedback and of course the feminine was from my own perspective about my own arm and wrist, I'm usually the first telling people "that's not too small, it sits well on your wrist". But never as easy for myself because I have a biased opinion of my body

CW says this movement is plus or minus 20 seconds per day mine is running at about plus 9 seconds per day.
