Isn't she pretty? Stowa Airman Ikarus, 40mm Auto with rhodium dial. Nice eh? PS I say 'uh-oh' cos it didnt take me long to start looking again... as long as I don't touch tho right?

The 40mm aspect is appealing. I found the Archer Aero hard to wear, not just because of the crown.. it's also very long from lug end to lug end.. ie it extends across the wrist quite wide.

If Al made a 40mm version I'd be all over it

Right now no plans for a 40mm version. I do have a new 42mm case style though with more traditional lugs...I think this would fit the wrist better than the original Aero lugs did.

For 40mm it would have to be a different movement as the 6497 and 6498 are too big for a 40mm case. I do plan on an auto movement in one model and that's in the works now...but with a 42mm case.
