Apologies if I'm double posting and this topic has been covered already but I came across the below video on Youtube and the author states that he contacted Steinhart directly about the possibility of making smaller watches. He says they replied saying that "Ocean models with 39mm case are planned in the summer 2017". Hope this is true and not a wind up as I'm sure lots of people would like a smaller version of their watches.
That would be Amazing! The only reason I traded my OVM was because I really wanted a Sub homage in the 39-40mm range. This is great news if it's true! I just hope the prices are the same as current.
Only reason I sold mine was lack of wear because it was too big. I had changed the hands, bezel and straps trying to make it smaller but nothing worked.
I can't say for sure I'd buy another in 39mm but would consider it a possibility.
I kinda like Steinhart but the straight lugs on a 42mm case just made them wear too awkward for my taste. It will be interesting to see these new models. A 39mm vintage GMT would likely take my money.
I so hope that this is true, it'll trigger a sell off of 42mm Oceans though I'll bet. 39mm would certainly suit me better and would get my money for sure.
If they would make the OVM on the 39mm case, with either the v1-stile black dial, or even the v2-style gray dial, I am in. (Unless Mr. Trump completely sends the U.S. $ down the toilet by this summer and they are then going for $500 US +)

I'm kinda the same, except I'd love them to drop the Vintage part and have a more normal coloured lume instead on the curry powder stuff they currently use.
