Embrace the girth guys!!

No but seriously, those chronos at 40mm or 42mm would look even better, but as mentioned by Ben, the increase due to the crystal is ridiculous.

Nice looking Hanhart, I've always wanted to try one, should pull the trigger some day.

Rockmastermike had a beautiful 356 for a while. I don’t remember it looking too small on him. I’d still prefer they had offered these in the 358 case, or split the difference with a new 40mm model.

The 358 case would have been perfect.

Different configurations but the same 356 platform

7 - 7.25 wrist

I remember a few points about these

while they are not the thinnest watch in the world.....the crystal eats up a lot of the height and fit well beneath a pull over, hoodie or sweater. I stopped wearing dress shirts a long time ago so can't speak to that.

bezel - less design means 38.5 wears more like 39.5.....especially true of the 2 register design giving the dial more room to breath.

At the end of the day - on my wrist - this case is comfortable, balanced and easy to wear to work, doing chores, traveling or just about anything.

The new ones are, but RMM had a vintage rubber one he picked up from our own vintage guy, Doxa Mike, who got it from the original owner, River Rat.
