Time to say goodbye (selling)
Following my last poll and after many thoughts, I am deciding to sell this beauty.
It's still a watch I like very much, it's exactly my dream watch regarding the aesthetics.
Unfortunately, it for sure does not work on my wrists (yes, left and right). I have tried all possible combinations of straps and positions on my arms, but there is always an issue resulting in big discomfort after a few hours (or even minutes).
It's certainly that the 41mm are just too big for my wrists (16cm left, 17cm right), and it's also probably very specific to my anatomy.
I am not sure yet I am keeping my new Baltic watch as a replacement, but the Baltic for sure proved one thing : it is extremely comfortable, so any way I will need a similar watch (38mm diameter max, 47mm lug-to-lug).
I believe there is no point to keep a watch that I am not going to wear and feels discomfortable, as much as I like it.
I hope it will suit a good new owner.
Welcome to my WatchCrunch profile.
For reference, I believe the Alpina is 41mm diameter and 49 or 50mm lug-to-lug.
Baltic is 37mm and 46mm. Quite a big difference.
That's rough. Also rough that you have two left wrists, lol.

😅Fixed, thanks !
Oh, I read your post back then. You sound almost apologetic and sad. The watch was not for you from the beginning, I hope your can get a significant amount of money back! There are hundreds of watches in this field watch style, so the hunting may begin!

Thank you my friend !
Yes I am quite sad and a bit lost sometimes, but hopefully I will find the right one!
