Are these Montjuïc watches ugly or just too big?

That obsession with the digit “6”!
They’re certainly too large for me at 43 mm. Yeah, at least they’re not 45-46 mm, but I can’t wear anything over 40 mm. The optimal size is 38 mm (hello, Timex!), maybe 39 mm (hi, Orient TriStar Automatic!). Japanese 36 mm watches work for me too (even 35 mm if this is how Casio likes it), and they’re technically unisex.
OTOH, Montjuïc quartz-based watches aren’t that expensive.
