Re: My first completed build in awhile. “Albatross Bakelite Diver”
I like this one ,give a good Military yet sport feeling to it.What size it ?
I loos small and for me is the only "bad" thing ,otherwise is perfect and for the cost of the parts its even more better!
Well done

The case is 37 mm, which is the size that I prefer. Anything between 37 and 40 mm is my sweet spot.

Re: My first completed build in awhile. “Albatross Bakelite Diver”
For me anything bellow 42mm looks ,childish in my wrist,cant wear anything smaller!Besides ....i can read the dial better in larger sizes!
That's how my love for Pam's initially started ,back then in 2000 did not know history or details ,i first saw one in 44mm and said
finally a MANs visible watch and bought it!
Still have it and love it!.
Now i only need a machine to blow up your watch and come and grab it form you because i really like it! Except the size
Good work!

Re: My first completed build in awhile. “Albatross Bakelite Diver”
I lost over 45 pounds in the last few years and these ridiculously large watches look silly on my wrist now. Plus, its hard to have a nice shirt or sweater on with a 1950s size alarm clock strapped to your wrist. I'll stick to under 40 mm.Alou wrote: ↑March 9th, 2020, 8:05 am For me anything bellow 42mm looks ,childish in my wrist,cant wear anything smaller!Besides ....i can read the dial better in larger sizes!
