She’s chubby but very comfy on wrist. I like the lume too

Similar height. They both need a diet. The dial is larger on the GS so it’s a bit more balanced than the T. I love GS but find most of them too thick

You have good taste. I don’t own it but have handled it, along with most of the range. Yes, thickness can be an issue, as with many GS. I appreciate the all brushed bracelet over the “higher end” partially polished ones and would welcome it on more models.

Perhaps the 39mm quartz is the comfort option? I’m actually more intrigued by the quartz but the 4 date and crown is a huge plus for me. I think it’s the most aesthetic and practical placement on sports watches without a magnifier.

Have you considered a SBGP015? 60th anniversary high precision quartz limited.

40mm but only 12.4mm thick, beautiful and unusual blue ceramic bezel, excellent wide lumed hands and markers and brushed bracelet. Plus, you can independently adjust the hour hand.

You are welcome. I’ve been looking at it myself for awhile.
