I have a bi-metal Rolex Sub and fancy another watch. Thinking a chronometer would be nice. Not particularly fussed if auto or not but want something quite big!

What would you suggest?

Probably new but would consider used for the right watch!

The next time you are in london do a few of the secondhand shops around Bond Street or sample the delights of Hull and visit Blowers lots of variety at all these and there is no substitute for trying a watch on for comfort and for styling

Do you mean a chronograph? I would have thought your Rolex was a chronometer (ie to COSC specs).

Something big, eh? Well, my Chris Ward C8 is smaller than my PO, but wears bigger because it's all dial.

Something along those lines, flieger-stylee, would definitely tick your "something big" box.
