Mine is bigger than yours!

...Now you really need to put a hornback strap on that one.....biggest there is

OK,

This took a bit longer to arrive than I would have liked, but eventually it turned up!

My research points to this being the biggest production watch made.

From Towner in Japan, it measures 115mm across, and the strap is a whopping 52mm wide.

Seen here next to one of my Omegas, and a Richard Mille for size comparison.

The one thing I wasn't aware of was that its a mechanical!(and even has an alarm.)-(and it runs and keeps time)

I had to cut up a womans belt to get a strap to fit it.

It will be mounted it on a display board as a curiosity for my market shop.

Would be really interested to know if anyone knows of a bigger production watch...anywhere.

And ..No...its just too big for a wristy..I would have to strap it to my thigh.

Damn..that watch is BIG! :D

For who it is made really? For some gorilla from zoo?

@sul,

I believe they were built as a promotional piece for the company-Towner.

Now I am seeing a few different reports...some say 100 only were ever built (I hope so!)

Others say it was a run of 1000.

It has a cast alloy case, which would require an inexpensive mould, and I would wonder if you could ever sell 1000 of these things. (Maybe give them away- if you had 1000 dealers?)

But its not something you could ever wear....maybe a slim person could strap it around their waist...but that ain't me!

I actually tried to take a "wristy" but couldn't even balance it on my arm long enough to snap a posed shot.

Anyway, its now on a display board, as a conversational piece in my shop.
