I have recently been considering picking up the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe. I love the combo of the grey ceramic case and blue dial and it would be a good diversifier in my collection. But at 43.6mm it would also be by far the biggest. I have a relatively small wrist and to me it looks and feels borderline but I think I may just be able to pull it off. So I ask you, r/watches, the age old question...is this too big for my wrist?

It’s a smidge too big. I feel your pain. This is my dream dive watch if they made the ceramic version in the 38mm. Maybe one day they will.

Yeah I looked at the 38 too...it looks just a bit smushed together at that size to me. I wish they made a 40 or even a 42. Feel like that would be the perfect size, especially given how open the dial is.
