Trying on "hard to get" pieces

Approved for 6.5

I must have some form of Dyslexia because I read the title as "Trying to get a hard on"

I picked up the 124060 the first week it came out from my AD and I have 6.25" wrists, sits perfectly in my opinion. I'm sure you'll be fine.

Unfortunately "hard on" and "6.5 inches" don't go in the same sentence for me

Try to find a grey dealer and see the watches you like in person. Try it on and see how it feels. It is a tough market out there but at least for me it is important to get the feel before you can commit to a purchase. At the end of the day these things are not cheap.

e.g. really liked the blue dial DJ on photos but still went to see one in the flesh before I started calling ADs for it.
e.g. Sky-Dweller no matter how much I like it, it feels too big and chunky on my wrist so there is no point to look for one.
e.g. Hulk - did not like it on photos and videos until I randomly stumbled on one and tried it on. From that moment it became an obsession and I had to have it

At the AD I've been able to try the new releases I was interested in, namely the Sub TT Bluesy and the OP41 in bright blue and yellow so far, more colours to follow (turquoise and green) . While I was there I also saw stuff I didn't like on pictures and got a confirmation in the flesh (GMT TT CHNR and full gold CHNR). I would really like to see a steel Pepsi at some point.

When visiting a grey dealer to get a trade-in quote on my Speedy, I was shown the new Kermit, not that I was interested but it was there and the dealer wanted me to see it, meh. I really don't get the appeal of this watch, it does absolutely nothing to me.

Your 100% correct. I was dead set on purchasing a piece I only saw in photos and videos, didn't love it in real life.
