are breitlings worth the money??... how are they compared to rolex?
Almost nothing keep the same value as Rolex. IWC, Panerai and Patek does but those are extra expensive watches, and even then not all keep the same value.
Breitling, the same a Tag, has to be bought as a keeper.
And I don't think I have a big wrist by any means, but I've owned 40mm watches in the past and they just feel too small to me (and I'm not a showy guy by any means). It might be because none of my older watches ever had any real wrist presence when compared to the Carrera, which stops people in their tracks (well me at least, I think it's a stunning piece).
The Carrera is definitely one of the most attractive watches in person, the beauty and design of the watches are what keep Tag Heuer's imagehigh. They are great, but as for your wrist, I think you need a thicker watch rather than bigger. Havign a heavy watch will really have presence and thethickness plays a big factor too. Try on a Zenith Defy Classic and tell me that doesn't command presence. Breitling might be the watch for you too, theColt Auto is only 41.1mm but it's thickness gives it a beefier look and looks slightly bigger than it really is.
