HydroConquest 39 vs 42, 18cm wrist, which one?
Hi Guys!
Need your help :)
This will be my first automatic watch, already decided on the HydroConquest. Just stuck between 39mm and 42mm. Wrist is exactly 18cm. May be a really tiny bit above.
Pics attached, green one is the 42, black one is the 39. Going with black either way so ignore the color, just need help with size. Disclaimer, the pics don’t fully do them justice, they look better in person.
Honestly I like both. 39 feels a bit more refined, 42 has more presence. Even the AD leaned 39 but couldn’t fully decide either.
Before this I was set on the Seiko SPB383 GMT, so this is where I landed after a lot of back and forth.
Anyone with a similar wrist, what did you go with?
