1st Wrist Check

SSK001. Happy to have this for a starter. Might be a little small lug to lug.

I think the lug-to-lug length suits your wrist well!

Not nice when the lugs and end-links extends too long IMO. The Certina Action Diver 43 is an example of this (Not my picture)

Appreciate the perspective, Gustaf. I'm a 7-1/8" wrist size so the thickness of my watch is likely contributing to the proportions feeling slightly off.

Got it! Yeah, I get what you mean.

The SKX and similar Seiko models are proportionately thick, especially the GMT-movement adds even more thickness. But I think thats part of the design elements of it 🤘It’s a bold and sporty design rather than a dressy approach

Hope you enjoy your watch, it’s a great piece 🙏

The SSK is certainly making a name for itself, good pickup 👍

Too small? It must be the photo then because if anything it looks a bit on the too big side…

Macro lense on the first shot is probably messing with the perception. That’s what I am getting at with this watch though. I think a slight tweak of 1mm greater diameter dial and 1mm shallow thickness and it might feel more proportional.

Lug-to-Lug is the most important aspect if you ask me. Right after that comes thickness.

To cut things short: If you like wearing it, wear it (in good health)!
