- Thanks to the best watch dealer in Coulumbia SC, Joey at Reeds Jewelers for letting me come demo this customer order, the Lake Tahoe chronograph 44. I brought my top gun 41 for comparison and, although the watch is big, it still sings on my 6.5 inch wrist. I used iMovie sound so as not to get background chatter.
Stunning time piece
It is. More to come
I never asked in your other Lake Tahoe video… what’s your wrist size? I’m seriously contemplating adding the Lake Tahoe next. I’m completely bit by the IWC ceramic bug after buying the new Pilot Performance AMG chrono in ceratanium. My wrist is about 6.8”, but flat.
I think the Lake Tahoe would look great on a black strap, not a fan of that white rubber they put on it... the black rubber with rivets that is made for the big pilot would look incredible on that watch, or even a black leather with white stitching
Let’s find out. Check back next month.
So I tried it on a black strap with white stitching. Nope. Maybe it’s for you, but it didn’t feel the same. This one is all about big and bold.
Really like the channel. All very relatable!
I think the watch is pushing it on 54 mm lug to lug. I got a 7 inch wrist, but even though it theoretically would not have overhang the watches tend to slide some and I can't stand overhang. Size wise the 41 Ceratanium-one is much I better I would say, almost pulled the trigger on one recently myself even though I was in the hunt for the teal Petronas 41 chrono. Due to budget constraints I had to stick with the latter.
Thanks for the positive feedback! Congratulations on your new piece. I’d love to try one on the black strap one day.
I hear you on size. 41/42 is a perfectly sized “big watch” on me. But when you strap on the Lake Tahoe, there’s something about the punch it packs. I’m starting to think we need to spend more time talking about the emotional connection rather than the clinical specifications of what is essentially a piece of jewelry.
