    Great tip to open your hand when measuring. I didn't know that! Thanks.

      Oh yeah you definitely have to open your hand. Depending on how your arm muscles are from a clinched fist to a splayed hand there could be a huge difference. I wasn’t sure if you measure it on the wrist bone or right behind it

    Great video! I have pretty much the same wrist size as you, what watch case diameter fits you the best. I thought all the watches you tried looked perfectly sized for your wrist. I want to avoid buying sizes that go beyond the width of my wrist.

    16,5 cm = 6,5 inch here.
    Waiting for a 33 mm Casio and 38 mm Seiko 5 in the mail. My current 40 mm feels like the limit, but maybe 42 mm could work, too? Not sure...
    I'd like to try some in a store, but they are pretty intimidating, to be honest...

    I was surprised because I am a small person, my wrists seem rather small,. but they measure 7" and when I was shopping for a bracelet, John Hardy listed 6.75" to 7" as large, so I thought I was measuring wrong.

      Always try watches which do not go past your wrist lug to lug. Although you could go a little overboard if you are muscular or longer limbs
