Is the Emperor really too hugh for most people ?
For me the issue with sbdx011 wasn't the size - it's the balance, and the comfort I had to give up to achieve the balance on my wrist. If you've largish wrists, the relatively close lugs and the inability of the straps to flare out (because of the shroud) may reduce either the comfort or balance on the wrist. This watch is fussy on wrist size and strap choice :mad:

If you expect good ergonomics regardless of wrist size, given the price, then you might be disappointed. It's not universally a good fit for all.

I personally find sbbn's and the vintage 7549's overall more pleasant to wear.

The following photo shows the maximum flare of the straps on a 7549:

Like that.

Try looking at 015 or 007.
Not bad also.

Tough choice between the SBBN023 and SBBN015... Pulled the trigger on the 23.

Was very worried that the Tuna will be too big as I only have 6.25inch wrist. Fortunately it fit just nice.

Now to charge up enough vitamin M before getting in line for the SBBN015 :mrgreen:

Thank you all, happy to join the Tuna club :D

Anyway the red lume is really weak, gone in like 5 minutes. Overall my Monsters have better lume :(

Any recommendations where I can get a nice PVD bracelet to match the Golgo?
