    I'm new to the forum and considering an IWC chronograph 41. However, I do not have a AD close to me and I was hoping for input. I like the look online of the IWC chronograph 41 pilot's watch, but one of the hang ups I have with this watch is the thickness.  I do have a larger wrist, but I am concerned with the thickenss. What is everyones thoughts on this watch. Also is the Mark XX a better watch?

    Hello and welcome to the forum. I can say that I have a large wrist as well, I have MArk XVIII's and I have chrono's, the height of the watch never was an issue with me, not even with shirts with long sleeves, The MArk gives a cleaner look on the dial, the chrono is more sporty, but that comes down to your own taste and liking. You can't go wrong with any of both

    Thank you sir.  I do like the sporty look for sure but I would like a little thinner.  However, I guess I have to try one on to see.  What are your thoughts on quality?

    IWC has for years a great reputation for the chronos, so no worries
