[seangoh]

i have 6-6.2inch wrists, skinniest ever skinner than many girls. even 40mm looks large on me. proper sucks.

 

but i think there are some nice ones i can pull off without looking overly ridiculous   (plus they all appear bigger in pics, smaller in real life)

 

 

38mm

 

38mm

 

 

40mm

Here's a few pams, and a 50mm Vostok Europe: Anchar, on my super small 6" on a good day, wrist.

 

I swear I eat! I can put some food down!

Kasper like Vostok but at 50 tough to wear ,I do not even go there. To be honest 47mm tops and then if it over 16mm thick I stay away. Wish I could wear Rolex surprised you guys are not inclined to go that way.

Like this thread a lot My smuf-like wrist.. Clocking in at 6" (15,5cm) Pam 111 h-factory Love it to bits... Dreaming of a DSSD... :0)

Yeah, it's a tough wear. That's why I put the 5 ring zulu strap on it, it kind of draws away from it's size on me.

kasper have a 48 x20 diver on Nato wears better but still a load and I am pushing 8in. I have the most beautiful Rolex-es but rarely wear due to size.

Hey guys, I'm new here. i was wondering.. is there like a secret guide to sizes depending on your wrist size? i have very small wrists (i can circle with my fingers my wrists) i took a string wrapped around and i think im roughly a bit bigger than 6.5''

i was looking to buy a U-boat 50mm will i look rediculous in my work suit and that huge thing on my tiny wrist? or will it look like i have guts and outgoing? thanks!

Here's a 42mm Speedy Pro and a 40mm Milsub on my 6.5 inch wrist. Sorry for the crappy Speedy pic.

I don't wear watches larger than 42mm. Without bezel I stick to everything 40mm and under as they tend to wear considerably larger. I'm really looking forward to the new 40mm Ingenieur and would love to try on a 15202 or 15300 Royal Oak to see how they will fit on my pretty flat wrist.  

 

 

 

 

 

Here's a 37mm 6265 and a 37mm Seiko SARB033 for comparison.

I need that Speedy   and the Milsub too looks great, care to share where you got it 

[mjmj]

6.75 inch wrist

 

[wiesn089]

Thanks!

It's a MBW 5513 case with CGs shaped by Highoey and modified by JMB with fixed Springbars. Both did an outstanding job, it really looks very, very accurate and even has correct MOD engravings on the caseback. Partswise it has a serviced slow-beat ETA 2846 ticking inside, gen modified Omega Seamaster 300 hands relumed to match the lume color of the Ingod Milsub dial. Gen crown, tube and crystal are also installed as is a bleached CWP 60 minute insert with Yuki pearl. The strap is a Phoenix watch strap, the original supplier for the British MOD in admiralty grey. 

This build was meant to be a test run for a super franken 5513 milsub. I wanted to see how much I'd really enjoy it before spending more. I love it and currently I'm gathering parts for a Cal. 1520 powered franken with gen dial etc.  Until then this one's getting A LOT of wrist time!

Just giving this thread a love bump.

Post WRIST SHOTS of your watches if you have a skinny wrist that is 6.5" or less.

Make the pics useful by showing more of your arm to help others determine if they want to give that model a try. Also include your wrist size that day in addition to the model and diameter.

IWC 3777 43mm on 6.375" wrist

PS try to host your photos where they won't get removed down the road.

I just got this PAM 380 Radiomir Black Seal today!

The PAM380 is the thinner model Radiomir, like the 183, but with painted dial instead of sandwich dial.

This 380 has a 45mm case diameter (52mm with wire lugs) and I measured 13.5mm thin which is very thin for this size watch. Here are a few pics on my 164mm - 6.375" wrist.
