Hi guys,
I know there are many members who are huge fans of oversized watches, the craze started by Panerai.
Let's see some wrist shots of your favourite oversized timepieces here. Please state the watch model, case size and your wrist size if available.

I'll start with the largest size watch in my collection:

Azimuth B-Uhr 48mm on my right wrist (wrist size - approx 18cm)

Hi Chan,
Looks like I was wrong in thinking that Panerai started the oversized watch craze. From your posts it would seem that Seiko was the culprit.
Very cool looking Slide Rule.

Hi Besview,
The BR-02 (44mm) and PAM176 (44mm) look perfect on your wrist.

Danny,
It helps a tad when my wrists are biggish

Wearing this watch on my right hand avoids the "crown poking into wrist" syndrome.

I agree with you that the 40mm is still the most comfy size for Asians.

Yes. The "F" in "BFS" stands for "freaking" and nothing else. Don't let your imagination run wild.

Thanks Danny. Of all the watches in the lineup, the PO is definitely my favorite son.

This is also the biggest I have and I don't think I will get any watch bigger than this.
