Here it is folks -- I blame YOU for my new found Doxaholism ;-)
Couldn't be happier with the watch, by the way -- as well as the service. The quality, heft, and fit/finish are outstanding. Sven has been great -- patiently answering all my questions and responding to various concerns.
For those considering a 1200T or other Doxa, my wrist is 6.75". As much as I'd love to own a 1500T someday, I think the classic, 42mm size is just about right.
Thanks to all of you. I've appreciated your insights, experience, and good humor.
John

That looks great.
I have the same wrist size, and I think both the 42.70mm and 44.70mm feel at home on said size wrist.
I had the 1200T Pro and Searambler and still own the 600T Searambler(44.70mm).
Great watches for sure.
Congrats!

Axelay2003,
Good to know the 44.7 mm size will work too. If you have any pics of a bigger Doxa (e.g., 750 or 1500) on a 6.75" wrist, I'd love to see 'em

Don't sweat it, bro. If I am not mistaken, I believe the 750T and 1500T share the same case size as the 600T.
If so, here are my pics:
1200T Pro and Searambler(long gone):
600T Searambler(my only Doxa):

No. 600 is "similar" to 1000, 1200, and vintage...around the 42mm mark...but individual cases.
600Tgrapgh is a beast unto it's own...much larger and taller, more like the GMT in stature.

Correct Sir, the 600T is the most comfortable of the family...IMHO
Here's a chart for those interested:
