I was near the boutique on Friday and coincidentally walked past.
Turns out it was opening day! Walked in randomly. It was a nice little boutique with a very friendly team. As another sign from God, the exact model (and the only model with the blue dial that they had in stock) was available on the day. So I did what I had to do. Early impressions: The watch is beautiful. It looks stunning and is well finished, with a lot of attention to detail. Well designed overall and a good size (for a larger wrist), with many clever features that are lacking with AP and PP. The blue dial is absolutely stunning and shifts from a lighter, metallic looking blue to a deeper dark blue depending on the lighting. There is a certain charm about VC that you understand when you see the watch in person. I'm pretty chuffed to own watches from the entire Big Three/Holy Trinity now. |

Great thread guys...

What’s your guys opinion of the Dual Time variant vs the Chrono (both in Blue version) Ref 7900v?

I really like the VC chrono but the white background on the date window annoys me.

Is this way too big for my 6.5 inch wrist?

Looks ok in that shot. But looking from above on your wrist, it will appear big. I have a 6.5 inch wrist too and couldn’t get comfortable with the large sports watch look. I ended up moving it but I miss it. If you are comfortable in wearing a large sports watch that will occupy all of the top of your wrist, you will be ok.
