So good to see things go back to reasonable sizes. I still rock a 1950s Eterna (34mm?) when wearing a suit. Milgauss or speedy for daily wear, so I'm not completely against 40mm-ish cases. No bigger though - I'm a medium sized guy with skinny wrists. Some of those aforementioned watches would do better on a chain from my neck.
I associate huge watches with the guys that will make certain that their watch is visible regardless of what shirt/jacket they're wearing. They attract attention, whether they want the ladies looking for cash or other guys jealous that they can't have that toy - neither are of interest for me...
