Anyone with a 7.75-8.25" care to chime in please? Would be of great help!

I think due to the flat back, the Motors might wear a bit smaller, if so I might just get the Motors Speed on an SS bracelet whenever that comes out. I find the red markings actually reduce the visual complexity of the wath, which I like.

While I don't own te 6.75, I can say that my Motors wears nice a flat on the wrist. I find it wears slightly smaller than the 48mm size would suggest.

I have nearly 8 inch wrists and the 6.75 wore thicker at the AD last week. Still trying to decide. Maybe I will try again next week. :wink:

I own the 6.75 but have tried both on the motors wore a little smaller. I agree that the red numbers reduce the cluttered look a little but i also dont like that much red on the dial.
