Currently thinking of getting the following:

Citizen Gents Stainless Eco-Drive

but can only get it on line. Where the description states "Case Diameter 44mm" what does the "case diameter" refer to? Is it the diameter to the outer edge of the red rotating bezel ?

TIA,

KJR

Yep, the measurement will be from the far left edge to the right edge of the bezel, and then add another 3-4mm on for the crown.

size of the case across (left to right) at the widest point - that might be the bezel edge or it might be the case. My pan homage and my ORIS TT! are both 44mm but the pan is far bigger on the wrist. its really hard to believe they are the same size. My ORIS bezel is probably 40mm, the case flares out at the bottom to 44mm whereas the Pan is 44mm straight.

Case diameters as a rule do not include the crown (winder) this is usually quoted separately.

44mm is actually quite large if you have teeny weenie wrists.

p.s. nice watch

Thanks for the replies, and yes I think this is far too big for my "teeny weenie wrist" rolleyes.

The search goes on ...
