That's a beauty!! 39 isn't big. In my opinion, 39 is a great size because of its versatility. How about buying it, trying it, then shipping it/returning it if it's not to your taste?

La Grande Classique de Longines?

La Grande Classique de Longines

Thanks, but I don't like the lugs (or lack of them). I don't think it makes it an "intemporal" design.

That's about it then if you want that kind of thinness. You can try finding some variant of Citizen Eco Drive One, but IIRC thry tend to be larger.

If more expensive it's fine. I will look if there is a small Citizen Eco Drive. Thanks!

You should take a look at Seiko Dolce SACM150, with a small 34mm case and a 5mm thickness. Sakura Watches have some in stock at the moment

Any of dozens of vintage Seiko quartz watches from the 80s

Frederique Constant FC220NS4S6 Slim Line

Eterna might have something similar in their vintage arsenal. There are many many pieces on eBay and for reasons unknown to me this brand does not get the love it deserves.

Not sure if you specifically want quartz, but there are some models from Hamilton in their American classic lineup with a similar look. However this model is slightly larger at 38mm: https://www.hamiltonwatch.com/en-ca/h38455781-intra-matic.html

Thanks! I will have a look!

[–] DeathByDeebo@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

No problem! Best of luck on your search 😊
