Due to the overhang of the lugs nice watch though
It is on the larger side, but the photo didn't do the size or proportion any favours. Face and lugs are on the wrist rather than hanging over the edge

Sorry to bump, I'm just perusing this thread while mulling over the current Goldsmiths deal and this wrist shot isn't helping!

Always a great resource this forum!

There's no doubt it's a fabulous watch and I can see why there are so many fans. I had no issue with the size either, the lugs are definitely longer than my CWs but still fitted. The strap was a slight disappointment- I have a zulu sail cloth which was on a par with the Longines strap.

I did send it back in the end but that was because it didn't fit quite right with my style or collection. I found the hands a little delicate compared to my preference.

I would still recommend the LLD though. It wasn't for me but is still an excellent watch
