Arrival!

This arrived today and I'm blessed to be a PO 8500 owner (42mm is the max for my 7" wrist)! This watch certainly has some weight to it, so the heft may potentially be an issue compared to the height, which doesn't bother me at all.

Overall, this watch is a beauty!

I like the height and it doesn't seem to be an issue for me...I'm more concerned about the 42mm size with my small wrists.
