and the price would be a huge factor, although i love this place, i have limited funds to play with. :doh:
This about sums up my situation as well....and 42mm max would be my vote. This might be a lame suggestion, but what about simply picking a custom dial and hands for one of Noah's new watches? And maybe a cool finish of some kind....like the Bob Thayer teflon?

I too would strongly consider participating...price and style would be a major consideration. :thumbsup:

Hey Guys. I'm new here , and can see this effort already has some momentum as a 42mm case.

However I have to agree with this poster. I have a huge wrist and without 44mm minimum, I would just be a spectator here, not really interested in buying. Is a two size run out of the question? :popcorn:

I can attest to Bloozy's "huge wrist". I took three links out of the new/old U1 today.

Also, I'd like to comment that the 42mm -vs- 44mm decision doesn't mean a whole lot to me. It is the lug-2-lug dimension that actually makes a difference on my wrist. This 44mm U1 doesn't look all that big with only a 50-51mm lug-2-lug measurement.
