SWATCHman Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 A vintage Rollie is the way to go, if you like them that is... They are smaller than the current Subs and hard to identify as fakes, at least the better ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dec Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 I have 6.25 inch wrists, and my advice is go with a leather strap if you are in doubt. The metal bands make anything look bigger. For years I wouldn't go bigger than a Datejust, but with the current big watch style I have become comfortable with a 40mm Sub and GMT2. On a leather band though I max out with several 42mm watches. 44mm PAMs look comical on me, IMHO. Also it depends on the dial/bezel design which can affect the apparent size.

We're all shouting into the wind. Im back! I just bought a car so didnt have the money for a new watch, but now i do and iv read this thread with intrest. I have no idea how thin my wrists are, but they are tiny. Im very very slim. I think im guna go ahead and order one soon though, i live in the UK, where would be a good place to purchase a watch from, i really am very new to the scene. Any models you recomend i should look at? That looks fantastic, what is it called? I also like the Omega one in the same style Thanks very much for the advice so far guys, i apreciate it.

PunkJr Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 well my wrist is about 9" and it can be a pain in the [censored]. i sometimes wished that i had small wrists so i could wear one of these babies. but it comes down to preference. another watch i would like to be able to wear but is just too small is the ss datejust, silver dial with baton markers and jubilee bracelet. well my wrist is about 9" and it can be a pain in the [censored]. i sometimes wished that i had small wrists so i could wear one of these babies. but it comes down to preference. another watch i would like to be able to wear but is just too small is the ss datejust, silver dial with baton markers and jubilee bracelet.
