Do you have even a single fact to back that up?

Apart from the wrists, indeed even bones can increase in size due to heavy weight.

With a 10k budget why not a Rolex Oyster Perpetual (probably 34mm)? It’s a great everyday, do everything watch that’ll last forever.

No body seems to know I would be glad if you could suggest. A mechanical watch. Don’t like quartz. Budget 10k. All I can see is jewellery watches which r not appropriate in society I live.

Good point, sorry about that! Case diameter is the actual measurement. Technically, dial or “face” diameter would be slightly smaller, depending on how thick the bezel is. The terms shouldn’t actually be used interchangeably, but they often are.

Are they both the same? To me, “Face Size” means crystal diameter. So, which is it?

I have a Vaer watch. I love their build quality and size options. I am always checking if they’re coming out with new models that aren’t field or dive watches.

Nevertheless, I love the brand.

It’s certainly not a cheap watch, but you can rest assured that you are wearing a very high quality timepiece that will last you a long time, and can be an heirloom piece.

Mostly field but one dress one and another dress. One coming out. A great dirty dozen remake. All of their watches are amazingly priced, Great movements, 100 m of water resistance, and sapphire.
