I have been wanting a Lunar Pilot ever since I began collecting watches and understood the rich history and build quality associated with the Lunar Pilot. After receiving this watch and having it in hand, I can see why this watch is sought after to such a degree. The robust case and craftsmanship is second to none and reflects a watch two- or three-times as expensive. I have an 8.5 inch wrist and this watch wears like a dream (and genuinely feels lighter than some dive watches I wear at a smaller diameter). All in all I cannot recommend this watch enough - if the size does not scare you off, I have nothing but positive reviews to share about owning it.
There's a lot of things to love about this watch if you have a big wrist and like a hefty watch. The watch is 45mm and weighs in a bit over 3½oz with a Nato strap. It works well for those of us with thick arms and wrists. I'm about 5'10" and weigh 190lbs. I have a 8¼" wrist and this watch looks and feels good on my wrist. My brother is 6' even, 160lbs and has a 6¾" wrist. He didn't like the feel of the lugs on his wrist. The case is completely mirror polished. It gives the watch more of a dressed up feel than a brushed or mate case. The juxtaposition of the mirror case and the Nato strap seem a bit much. I replaced the strap with a padded black calf-skin strap. The new strap matches the case polishing a bit better IMHO. The high-frequency movement keeps awesome time. I have had the watch for about 2 months. It has gained about 1 second (if that). This is a true set it and forget it time piece.
This is such a beautiful watch! I love how it sits on my arm! I thought that it might be too big, but it is perfect!! If you are on the fence just get it you will be happy with it!
