Ok, I know it says "especially for women," but are any MEN wearing this? I feel like my 36mm Datejust is a great size for my wrist, and I've gotten to the point where I never wear my Navi World because it's not comfortable. I really like the Transocean series, and I've always wanted a 2 register chronograph!

Forgive the rambling, just wanted to know who exactly is wearing the TOC 38!

Thanks

PS- Wrists shots appreciated!

There was loads of discussion about this on the forum when it was released. Breitling have totally stuffed the marketing of this watch. It's a perfect watch for guys! It's actually the same size as the original Top Time 810, on which the transOcean series was based! I tried it on my 6 3/4 inch wrist and it was brilliant. FWIW, the sales rep at the Breitling boutique agreed when i tried it on.

That's such a nice looking watch, and looks great on your wrist. I'm going to have my AD call next week.

Sorry to resurrect an old threat but i came across this photo and remembered the original tagline about it being "especially for women". I think the 38 looks just about perfect on Mads Mikkelsen and i notice they've dropped that line from the website.

It's a beautiful watch. Men or women, it doesn't matter in my book.

I hope Breitling never repeat the marketing mistake they made with this watch. I love the 38 Transocean.

Be interesting to read how many sleekT's Vim sells to men.
