    Hi Alibaba,
    If Fong bought 2, I guess you bought the remaining after what happened yesterday?

    I am sure someone can help. But your chance will grow if you post this under a new thread, so that more forummers can see it ;-)

    Beautiful piece, albeit too large for your wrist.

    With all due respect, that's a very provocative comment.

    SC, thanks for posting the pictures. I am lifting weights to see whether I can bulk up my feeble wrist before I pick up my CF3. I am also considering putting my Big Pilot and Portofino 5251 up for sale on a well known auction site because those watches are also albeit too large for my wrist ;-)

    I do apologise Fong. It's a great looker, just the wrist shot image - it just looks a bit wide/tall in comparison (lug to lug). If only the lugs were shorter.

    Personally, I still prefer the sizing of the classic pilot 'non-in house' models. They seem to wear better on the average male wrist size.

    Leon K, the CF3 case size is the same size as the 'non-in house' Pilot Chrono 3777 at 43 mm.

    Thank you guys.

    For the record: The watch is mine, but not the wrist.:)

    My daily watches are over 46mm, hence I ask someone as a model to take pictures. Hahaha.

    Cheers,
    sc

    PS: I will take more pictures when my second one coming this week.

    Big congrats SC! I got scared when I saw the first two pictures but yours were a lot better and clearly show the nice color of the indices.

    Enjoy and wear it in good healt, I am patiently awaiting the arrival of mine!

    Kind regards,

    Clemens
