Sometimes I wish I didn't have taste or sophistication. My income just doesn't quite match my tastes unfortunately. I'd be living large if I liked Casio's and Honda Civics.

The case of the watch should be a size that allows between 2-7mm of "wrist" beyond the upper and lower part of the case (using a 2D model, not accounting for depth).

I'm a big guy, Ill post a pic later of what a 44MM looks on me. I personally hate the bling look and was worried about how a 44 would look until I wore one and saw it looked normal. I think the max that I would ever go is a 52 or a 50. I know they make 56s which just look ghetto and ignorant.

These are 2 of the best watches I've ever owned. Although I may sell the PP when the economy gets a little better, and upgrade to a PP5159

There are a lot of great time pieces out there in the 2nd hand market right now that will never depreciate much if any, and should be safe to good investments. You can spend $1500-5000 for a nice (but not amazing) watch. That is a better investment then the stock market in many ways.
Thanks
