Perceived size…

Hi Tony,

 

Thanks for the images. As you say, we don’t get to see the Marine on bracelet too often and it’s an interesting change to make and a nice ‘option’ to have.

 

One thing that struck me from your comparison images on leather and metal was how it changed the apparent size of the watch. While I always knew that a leather strap accentuated or emphasised the watch itself, and that smaller watches seemed to benefit from the added ‘heft’ of a bracelet, your images really brought that home.

 

Very interesting.
