    BR03-92

    Hey I'm thinking of getting the br 03-92 in steel. a couple of questions,
    does it look big on a 6 inch wrist?
    and is it easy to get leather straps? from where?

    thanks

    it would look big on a 6" wrist. you got to try it on in person. maybe look at the smaller size. BR S 39mm. that is what you need.

    +1 to trying it on!
    -1 to everything else. I've seen guys with 6 in. wrists wear the 01! It's a matter of opinion and feel. If you like the way the 03 feels you could definitely wear it!
    You gotta see for yourself!

    You definitely need to try them on since they're square shaped, they wear quite bigger than regular 42mm watch. Straps can be found pretty easily whether it's OEM or aftermarket you're looking for.

    Agree you need to try it on. One persons 6" wrist will be totally different from another's 6" wrist. Aftermarket straps aren't too hard to come across and can be had fairly cheap, even full custom. I have an aftermarket leather from Stone Creek straps that was <$100 IIRC. Fits like a dream and soft as butter. Great customer service, too!

    Good luck!

    Couldn't agree more, my Omega Planet Ocean is 42mm but looks loads smaller than my BR03-92. If you're used to wearing a bigger watch youll be ok. Before I bought my Omega PO I tried and BR03 and didn't buy it because I thought it was too big as I was wearing a 38mm Tag at the time.

    Try one on and look in the mirror, I've just put a James Bond canvas strap on my BR03 stainless and it looks the nuts.
