    Meanwhile shaq is looking for a wall clock to convert as a wristwatch.

    34mm-40 for most men and 26-36 for women typically work’s best.

      That seems rather small for a man’s watch. I would say up to 43mm is good

    When I was in the military, many males in my unit wore oversized dive or aviation watches. There was even a self-deprecating saying: "big watch, small ("male organ")."

    Just wear what you like.

    I prefer watches that look big even on me, yet sometimes I enjoy wearing my f91w even though it practically disappears on my wrist.

    @Str8baller32 ปีที่แล้ว +25

    Great video I too find the sweet spot at around 38-40mm, that being said I appreciate diver watches such as the seiko turtle/samurai being slightly larger at 44

    • @ChronometerCheck
      @ChronometerCheck  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you! And same here. A large dial diver is definitely part of the aesthetic.

      ​​​@@ChronometerCheck I wear a thick case orient sun and moon version 3 that's 43.5mm with the blue dial and I have small wrists I like watches that cover the whole wrist 😁😎👍

    • @all-caps3927
      @all-caps3927 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I don’t like those Seikos, the larger the bracelet and the watch the more the lack of quality in the watch shows with the cheaper metals on display to a greater extent. It’s as the person in the video said, when you’re wearing a watch that’s too big you look like you’re trying too hard and that applies to a greater magnitude when wearing a cheaper seiko

  • @esteban8840

    My biggest watch is a 42mm Tudor BB Chronograph, love it but I prefer 1940-60’s watches between 32 and 38mm, they are lovely

    You do a great job to give us a lot of information. I’m glad someone is doing this so people can buy what they like to me. 36 mm to 40 mm is the right size I can get away with a 42 is from the log is 44 to 46.🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

  • @vernonwilliams8644
    @vernonwilliams8644 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    I do 70% of wrist width max. . Which comes to 54 mm of 60 mm. My lunar pilot being 53 mm and fits best on the zulu or my nato strap.

  • @jzayas5698
    @jzayas5698 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    There also is the form factor of the watch, for example Diver watches tend to be chunkier than field watches, so field watches can look good while smaller, but a small diver looks kind of weird in my opinion.

  • @jesseesparza4974

    I have 7 ¾ inch wrists, so 40 mm feels like a woman's watch

      I have 8 1/2" wrists and these skinny snowflakes only want tiny watches that fit them and moan if anything is too big. Suck it up I say.

  • @4120306
    @4120306 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    The reason wearing big watches is "not ok" is because of rules set by watch/trend snobs. Wear what you like!

    I love your Seiko Alpinist. I wish they had a no date version. I’m not a fan of watches with a cyclops.
    Other than that, perfect watch.

  • @KuToga007
    @KuToga007 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    i would love to wear some nice 39mm or 40mm, but i'm 6'2 and my wrist is 7.5, so if i don't want to look a watch funny on me, it has to be minimum 42mm-43mm, but alot of great watches are 40mm or below :( so better luck for me in next life

    6.75 wrist here. I have a 42mm with a 46mm lug-to-lug and there's no overhang on my wrist but it still just feels a little big. It's just personal taste.

    I guess it just depends I have a 32 mm watch and I have a 40 mm watch and truthfully they both look fine. So long as you wear it with confidence haha. Unless it's a giant Invicta. Don't buy a giant Invicta.

    I have a 7 1/4" wrist and have been wearing a 1950s Imperial I got recently, which is about 32mm and 39-40mm lug to lug. Honestly doesn't look too small, maybe our grandparents were on to something with the sizing.

    I had to stop wearing a watch after I was paralysed. I can't wear one because a watch digs into me when I'm wheeling myself around in my wheelchair. I was gifted a beautiful A Lange & Sohne watch from my fiance and its just sitting in the safe.

    40mm is definitely the sweet-spot for the average guy. I can tolerate smaller sizes but there's nothing more disturbing than a watch that's too big.

    A video about the right watch size, while you have the watch so high up your wrist, it’s practically choking your hand. Okay.
