Federico is making one big mistake: outside of America people just are much more skinnier. For most people outside the US the BB54 is actually the sweet spot and also the most true to its history. The BB58 isn’t near as comfortable on the wrist as the BB54.
I bought my wife a Black Bay 54 and she LOVES it. It's a gorgeous vintage looking dive watch that feels very high quality.
Love my BB54 on my 7.5 inch wrist
The BB54 crystal width is 28.5mm, which is close to the average 30mm for typical dive watches and chronographs. But the 20mm-16mm steel bracelet width taper makes this compatible with the average person, big or small. When a band goes below 16mm width a big-wristed person should be concerned about how that's going to look. This is also why a big-wristed person can probably wear one of the Kuoe Kyoto Smiths wristwatchs, even at 35mm, because its proportions still work. A band size of 120/80mm in length, plus the case size, adds up to 8 inches, maybe even 9.
I'm not going to say that every small watch works for big wrists, but knowing the key sizes can open up a lot of opportunities.
BB54 wears almost the same as BB58. Have tried them side by side and you can’t really tell.
Federico, your comment about size wrist and the BB 54 is more than ridiculous. I don’t have an small wrist, the opposite, but I respect that everyone is different.
Calling the Black bay 54 ridiculously small is a terrible take.
The watch may have a 37mm case, but the lug to lug is 46mm. So it's not a small wearing watch on the wrist.
Bigger ain't better, someone said to me once. Panerai's are not appropriate for most of us, I happen to love the 37mm Black Bay 54. It fits my wrist perfectly and doesn't jump off the wrist and draw attention to itself like many big watches do.
I really like the Turn-o-graph. I like having a timing bezel!
I too really like Turn-O-graphs, Thunderbirds, Air Kings, Millgauses, and Sky-dwellers. In other words, all the oddball Rolexes.
I didn’t think the 54 felt small at all. It felt very similar to the 58 to me. Both are great but I think I prefer the look of the 54 a bit more
I bought the 54 for my wife’s 51/2 inch wrist. It looks fantastic on her. Not enough brands produce good looking sport watches for women. Wake up everyone she loves watches and she is the one who keeps talking me into my next watch. Thanks
I love those gold bezel Tur graphs with a champagne dial,on a brown leather strap,LOVELY .
TurnOgraph is funky and I like it.
I've recently began my obsession as a watch collector. And i must say- out of all the luxury brands I've been researching, for me the amzwatch's watches are the most intriguing.
Love the Santos! But I like the GP Lauriato too. Decisions decisions...
First world problems can be sticky. "Choose well young Luke".
I watch alot of older films and see alot of 36mm and 38mm case sizes and they look great. On big guys like Robert Mitchum, John Wayne and Lee Marvin. So if the Duke could do it I'm sure you can Fed.I was just watching Marked for death with Steven Segal and he wore a Day date 36mm which was his personal piece in real life and a TAG Heuer chronograph 38mm and Steven Segal is 6.5. Now guys that are 5.8 on a good day think those sizes are too small 😅 and before I get hit with the that's all was available at the time. There were plenty of 40mm and 42mm case sizes at the time but that's what he choose to wear
Nah, small watches look bad on big arms.

I agree I am 6 foot 176 lbs and I have a small wrist and 36mm looks just too small
That was the past, in the 70s every gent wears a suit. Times have change, even big corporations are casual attire now.
Been watching your videos for a while now and was inspired to start a collection. Started with the amzwatch, its specs for price and clean looks, now am looking for a dress watch to add.
The TOG is a must have 👍 Love it
Hi Federico, maybe you shouldn't make fun about guys with tiny wrists by saying their watch size is ridiculous! A guy your size should know better.....
Best intro on TH-cam hands down. 👏🫡
The Rolex TOG you showed is the best one. My wife picked it over anything else.
Loving the GoodPlanet Aqua Terra you have for sale currently. If I had the readies, I'd be splashing out on that bad boy.
love the Turn-o-graph
Federico you can count me as one of the thousands of watch enthusiasts you have educated over the years, and while I believe you would not buy a black bay 54, I think it is just irrational to claim that a 37mm case and a 46mm lug to lug is too small except for the smallest wrists. Especially since over half the population is female. That was is at least fine for all but the largest of wrists conventionally. I agree you are against it personally but I don’t see how you can extrapolate the generalization.
Love your channel with so many stellar watches! For me the MAMACOO’ watch is my favorite. Keep the videos coming. Thanks.
I’ve a 6.75” wrist and own the 58 and 54. The 58 wears better and oddly is more comfortable even without glide lock. Still, I’m keeping the 54 to put on a Bond NATO for a bit of fun. 🤵🏻
Can you describe more why 58 fits better than 54?
@@insightman9632 The 54 feels more sharp on the edges. Particularly the bracelet. The polished “rivet” plates extend ever so slightly past the bracelet creating a sharper edge than 58. Not terrible but noticeable. Possible that this is an issue with just my 54, since I’ve not heard it mentioned by others.
Every big mobster wore 36 and below every thing don’t need to be big compensation ain’t for everyone …
Sounds like cope. Tying the size of someone’s ____ to their preferred watch diameter is some petty shit. Grow up.
That’s because they only made 36 as the largest size or 37 as a jumbo. It’s not like they had options.
Mobsters also wore striped suits pulled up to their armpits and greased their hair back with boot polish.
This is a different time with different styles
This isn't the 1940's, Slick. And besides, there's no shame in an adult male having the wrist size of a 9-year-old girl...
Okay, yes there is! 😂😂😂
Wrist sizes have increased in the developed world right along with waist size,neck size etc. Most gentlemen with 8 inch wrists are not bodybuilders
When he said “smaller, diminutive wrists” 🤦♂️
I like the watch I got from MAMACOO. That rubber strap combo looks really cool! Been wearing it since last year and love every minute of it.
Tudor Black Bay 54
Watching from Nacka Forum, vacation day 20/37.
Fed is like the Doug Demuro of watches, all about the quirks and features!
The Black Bay 54 is great for members of the itty-bitty wrist committee (shout out to Jenni Elle). My wrist is 6.38 inches.
My wrist is 6.25” and I bought one recently. Fits like a dream
amzwatch watch are the best, I say this from experience.
I bought this popular video watch from amzwatch , which was originally priced at a few thousand dollars, but now it's only $380! It's really suitable to pick up feces!
What da best heavy hitter for up in da club? A real bait and tackle watch to gets the girls rizzed up?
Duder, you sounded out of breath. So much so it took me out of the video. Maybe it's the audio, but we love the content and want to see a happy healthy you. Looking forward to the next video!
I don’t get Tudor, it’s the tissot to omega
If they'd get rid of the snowflake hands, it would be a good start
I don't think the gap is that big. Tudor are close to Rolex in terms of quality.
@@mariusdanfilip7204No they aren't. Tudors finishing is terrible and constantly have QC issues
@@mariusdanfilip7204that's not a good thing for Rolex though when prices are compared
@@mariusdanfilip7204NO they aren't. Tudor has awful finishing and constantly have QC issues
My daily beater is a 37mm Rangemaster and I love it but it’s definitely smaller than I’d like for an expensive luxury piece. My main high dollar pieces all range from 40-43.5mm
The Reverso... LITERALLY EXISTS FOR SPORTS... With no polo there is no need for a Reverso. Stick to Moser.
Watch size and wrist size are inextricably linked. I like dress watches, and 37 mm is a perfect size for me. However, because of the relatively small dial and large bezel, I think divers wear smaller than equivalent size dress watches. I have never seen a Black Bay (54 or 58) in the flesh but I do know that even a 42 mm dive watch doesn't look too outlandish on my wrist provided the dial isn't too big. So I imagine I would prefer the 39 mm 58 rather than the 54.
I enjoyed the chuckle about the black bay 54
I have to be honestz what a load of crap
Anything in particular?
Agree 💯, the 54 is just way too small even on the bracelet. Imagine putting it on a strap and it’ll even look smaller!
That’s right Fed. The Tudor BB 54 is for women and children.
Those people with diminutive wrists are called women. I do think it was specifically created as a ladies diver.
