I tried on the Speedmaster at the boutique. It was a lot bigger and thicker than I expected (I have a 39mm reduced, purchased 20 years ago). I like the moonphase, a useless but very pretty, feature. I don’t like light/thin watches (tried on a Cartier Santos Du Mont and it was too light/thin).

My wrist size is 16mm. If you have shopped these two watches (about same price), what are your thoughts?

    We have the exact same size wrist

    I have tried both. The Speedmaster was definitely to big lug-to-lug wise, I also think the Speedy Reduced is a far better fit

    The JLC moonphase should have been perfect… but for some strange reason, it fit so awkwardly, and just felt wrong. Shame, I would 100% go for the JLC otherwise

    The perfect watch may be the one you already have
