Re: Here's a couple of moody 1153 photo's for viewing

For me it's not just weight, (although the Panerai and my O7 LM3 are both verging on the obese), it's size. I know, I know, size doesan't matter but I guess I've just got used to the larger case now. Even the Monaco and Silverstone look a bit small on my wrist to me now! I feel however, that I should have a Carrera so maybe I can have a play with yours Rich next time we catch up, if you excuse the phrase?

: Comfort? Who wants comfort?! I don't own a pair of slippers either!
: lol

: Seriously though, to me i can detect no difference between a Monaco
: or SS and C for comfort on my wrist, just a lack of weight which
: for some reason feels wrong to me. Must also be to do with style
: for me though as the 70s and 80s Carrera cases don't differ
: massively.

: I'm off to inflict some pain on my wrists with a certain 110.313B!

: Everyone have a good weekend.

: Rich
