rek001 Posted February 13, 2007 Report Posted February 13, 2007 I thought it would be helpful to post some wrist shots of my bigger watches on my slim 6.5" wrist, I promised my forum sisters I'd do this, so here we go: MBW blue Tt Sub (40mm), upgraded dial and mods by RBJ Breit Navi (42mm) from Joshua Quartz PO chrono (41.5mm) from Andrew Pam 090 Power Reserve (44mm) from Joshua Pam 253 Regatta chrono (44mm) from Josh These are some of my fave watches, I know they look big but I've gotten over that a long time ago Thanks for looking.
andreww Posted February 13, 2007 Report Posted February 13, 2007 Thanks for sharing! Its nice to see some female wrists for a change! Great collection too.
rek001 Posted February 13, 2007 Author Report Posted February 13, 2007 You are welcome, mkm! I was hoping you would see this post. My wrist is narrow and deep in cross-section, if it was wide and flat the watches would look better, I think. It took me a long time to talk myself into buying my first Pam, I tried on the genuine 5 times and walked out of the shop each time thinking "no way". Then I decided to test one by buying Josh's inexpensive asian Pam power reserve, and I really liked it. It makes quite the statement on the wrist, I've gotten compliments and glances (admiring I hope) from people on the street. The Pam I'm really in love with is the 253 Regatta (last photo). It is thinner and sleeker than the power reserve, so it sits and looks better on my wrist. Very beautiful and avant garde timepiece. I wore it recently on a holiday to San Francisco, we went with another couple and every time we were at a restaurant my friends kept commenting on what a beautiful, interesting watch. Made me feel good
rek001 Posted February 13, 2007 Author Report Posted February 13, 2007 Thanks Andreww, the Navi is one of my faves. some think the bracelet is too blingy, but in my opinion it's a work of art.
andreww Posted February 13, 2007 Report Posted February 13, 2007 Mine is on a genuine Breitling strap. I like the SS, just find it scuffs way too easy, so I just keep it for special occasions.
ubiquitous Posted February 19, 2007 Report Posted February 19, 2007 Nice wrist shots, Rima! Lookin' good!
rek001 Posted February 19, 2007 Author Report Posted February 19, 2007 Thanks Randy! About time I contributed some useful info to this place.
jonthebhoy Posted February 19, 2007 Report Posted February 19, 2007 Nice idea for a post. Well done Rima. JTB
Victoria Posted June 23, 2007 Report Posted June 23, 2007 Pam 253 Regatta chrono (44mm) from Josh Thanks for looking. Thanks for doing this, Rima. You've helped me a lot, since I ordered a starter PAM yesterday; filled with trepidation that my wrists will be too small for it. You and I look about the same, wrist-wise, so I think it should be fine. And yes, that's my favourite of the two PAMs you have. I do see its more effective narrowness, as well, thanks to your description. *kisses fingers* Grazie! P.S.: Silix-prime has the 253 for 210, whilst both Andrew and Josh go for around 248. Hmm...
Logan Posted June 23, 2007 Report Posted June 23, 2007 I'd love to see a Big Bang picture done as close to these as possible so I can compare. I'm still having a tough time visualizing the size of it on my smaller wrists.
Dani Posted June 24, 2007 Report Posted June 24, 2007 I'd love to see a Big Bang picture done as close to these as possible so I can compare. I'm still having a tough time visualizing the size of it on my smaller wrists. I have about same wrist say as Rek001 and i can say a big bang looked just stupid on my wrist
doopey Posted June 24, 2007 Report Posted June 24, 2007 You should try a PVD PAM, they look smaller than the ss PAM's.
Kollektor Posted June 30, 2007 Report Posted June 30, 2007 Very nice to see female members here. I love the rare occasions when I spot women with cool men's watches. BTW, I agree completely about the Regatta. It's one of my very favorites in my collection. Gets more wrist time than most of the others. Nice Breit, too.
FasTTaP Posted June 30, 2007 Report Posted June 30, 2007 Pretty usefull shots, I needed this to decide on a Pam thanks a lot
rek001 Posted June 30, 2007 Author Report Posted June 30, 2007 You are very welcome, glad to be of use.
P4GTR Posted July 23, 2007 Report Posted July 23, 2007 Resurecting the month or so old thread to thank you, your pictures helped put things in perspective for my girlfriend and I.
jeff g Posted July 23, 2007 Report Posted July 23, 2007 6.5'' Wow, I am only 6.75'', I feel really lucky to be able to wear some of these larger watches. You are an inspiration. Your wrist shots are much nicer than mine. You have great taste in watches, thats for sure. Wear them well. By the way... get one of THESE!
