I know what your saying about how the Rolex feels small compared to others but the guy wants something classic and timeless. When i went to try on a Sub for the first time it felt small compared to my Ocean-7 LM1 but honestly that is a classic size. I personally would stay away from the oversized trend like Panerai and such.
Swatch + Anderson & Sheppard 3 piece suit.
The Speedy is probabily more classic than any current production Rolex, virtually nothing has changed about that watch from an aesthetic standpoint, not to mention the price is pretty darn reasonable at about 2.5K USD, compare that to your run of the mill Sub Date which is what 6K now...ouch, bought mine at 4.5 and thought it was a bit much back then.

The two brands you recommend are appealing. I have a particular fondness for Bucherer ... as my first timepiece was of that make. But, I'm not sure I would dismiss all of the 'hoary chestnuts' just yet. Some, yes, but not all.
The guy who said Panerai.
I was talking about size and asthetics not about how long that particular design has been around. Yes, the speedy is a classic sport watch and priced well but i still fit it into the grossly oversized category.
