    Input Needed re: Sinn Arktis II v Tudor Pelagos LHD

    Hello All,

    I understand: highly subjective, not "correct" in style, dependent upon personal preference, etc. However, any input would be greatly appreciated. I'm new to this world (<2 yrs) and know enough to know that I don't know much, if anything.

    I'm in love with the Arktis II with the blue dial, but at 17mm (to top of crystal), I'm worried that it might be too "hockey puck-ish" for my 7in wrist. With that in mind, I'm also eye-balling the Pelagos LHD, but it doesn't seem to be as versatile (matte finish) as the Arktis - not as easy to dress up. (I miiiiight try and wear with a suit occasionally until my budget allows for adding a proper dress watch).

    At this point, I don't really know all of the questions I should be asking or taking into account. Any thoughts, especially from those that have either of these, would be greatly appreciated, as well as other suggestions up this alley! (Sinn, Tudor especially.)

    Thanks in advance!
