It's a ladies watch. Sorry but it is. Tiny bloody thing. Even Jim agreed with me on that one.

So many watches, I was super impressed with the orange accented Porsche Carrera, that looks amazing IRL. Really looks like a £6000 watch.

Jim was blown away by Oooooblut.
Thanks for confirming on the pink. Still not shown up locally.

That Porsche Carrera looks great on screen but not seen that yet either. Like everything about it though.

No comment on the Hublot…

And yes Jim, it looks red because my phone is a crappy Samsung android phone.

I can't tell you how many times I heard that yesterday.

Also.... "Oh, my wrist has expanded a little, I think I will adjust the clasp on my Aquaracer.... but of course yours does not have this function."

This lovable oddball…

Pity they never got around to following it up with a slightly smaller, closed (& patterned) dial three-hand-version. The overall case design was just great, IMHO.

His comments are unrepeatable.
I have seen the following pic on the web, which has convinced me that TH has done whatever they could to make this a ladies’ watch as far as on-wrist “presence” is concerned. And this is the white variant, which - as we all know - should normally look the biggest…

Thank god for the t-fit clasp. After cutting the grass it’s gone out a notch or two!

Very misleading photo, all watches look much bigger in wrist shots. One would need like a 13cm wrist to pull this one off in my opinion. Short lugs, thin, tiny dial and a very narrow tapering bracelet all combined ruins the 36mm Carrera from being a proper actual unisex watch. Shocked how tiny it was. A black bay 36 I could totally rock, for comparison, the Carrera no chance ever. Wish they made the pink in the 39 case. Dial was mesmerising in person

White dial? There isn't a white dial, it's silver.

^That is the distance all wrist shots should be taken from to get a more realistic perspective on size.

Your previous pic on Jim's wrist made it look like a fairly nice fit, for those who like smaller sizes.

I really liked the Porsche Orange Racing too when I had a chance to try it on. It is very impressive when you see it in the metal. But I'd never seriously consider buying one unless I had an orange Porsche to go with it.

Well, there is that... but then again the Porsche logo is quite small and hard to notice so I think I would take the chance.
