This show is on season 7 and he has worn other watches I found talked about in the past, but this one is on his new season and I haven't found it identified yet here is one of the best largest pics I could find of it in hopes it might help

Nixon 51-30. There have been some great shots of it during the show. Plus he does some great things for people. A win win!!

Lüm-Tec also makes some large 3 hand watches with that dial. It might be the LZ1 LumZilla for all I know about hockey puck sized watches.

I have a large arm and am a big guy 6'6" but my last watch a parnis 50mm was just too big for me, i like the look of this watch but would like to find something the next step down maybe 44-46mm range, any suggestions for a budget minded stay at home dad?

My marcello C tridente chrono is my primary watch and was a gift for our 10th anniversary, way out of my norm of buying range and I don't wear it often, at 40mm it doesn't feel too small (I love the tall case of it) but would like to find a nice daily wear watch in that 44-46 range in a similar design as that nixon holmes wears maybe under $150 to not raise the wife alert...hehe
