i find SAs are harder to pull off then bentleys due to the sheer thickness but a 7.5 wrist is fine

i'm also in the small wrist but want big watch group. my wrist is about 6 3/4 (generous) and my gf and mom says the b-2 below looks too big. I think it looks just fine and was looking for a navi world but now i'm having second thought and might just settle for the good ole navitimer :x

You should only listen to what you are thinking. Any gf/mom opinion can of course be partially advisory - but on the other hand, how often do they really take your advice on their clothing?

An excellent point well made, Aleister! The opinions of loved-ones do count, but at the end of the day you have to wear it and feel comfortable with it. Buy what YOU (and you alone) like - you'll DEFINITELY regret it if you don't.

I have a 6.5" wrist but I had a SA for a while. yeah, I got the occasional jokes from my buddies that it looked like lil bow wow's watch but other than that, its harder to go small. But these days, I am looking for a compromise size between avenger skyland, navitimer world or bentley GT... Still, every time I see the SA, I almost break down and buy...

I spent time in the AD at Heathrow Airport waiting for my delayed flight a couple weeks ago trying on Breitlings, and in my opinion (small wrist) the only one that didn't look ridiculous was the Chrono Evo. I could never pull off a full size.

I also found that the watches with darker dials looked smaller on the wrist, which suited me fine as I always wanted a black dial anyway, but something to bear in mind if you're going for the bigger ling on the smaller wrist.

Yes this is true. White SA's 'look' a whole lot bigger than the rest ;)

Perfect! I find that the GT wears VERY nicely. The bracelet is super comfortable, the lugs arent too long, and the case is surprisingly thin when compared to other Cal. 13 models.
