Should Rolex make a 60mm watch.
.
Hey, all it's missing is a blue maxi dial and a TT Oyster Bracelet |

Past a certain size, it no longer qualifies as a wristwatch. Wristclock, maybe.
With that said, that is the ugliest wristclock I have ever seen. |

I dont think rolex should make a 60MM, but the watch you posted is nice.

I think the trend is basically putting a pocket watch size movement in a wristwatch case to match

Why not just wear a stone sun dial for that matter!

Possibly the only guy on TRF who could get away with a 60 mm watch on his wrist would have to be our friend, Ragu.....with his 8½" sledge-hammer wrist!!

EXACTLY. I don't want to work hard just to put it on, take it off, and wear it.
