When I traveled to Paris some years ago, I bought the Sportura SLQ023 from an AD. It caught my eye because it's such an iconic limited edition piece, but I have a smaller wrist. That's why I find this video very handy. As a collector, I make profits from watches, so I will do my research and find out how much she is worth. I might buy the SRPK29 for my small wrist.

@alihossan6655 Ай бұрын

Great that will fetch you some cash. *I used to be a collector, but I liquidated my collection to venture into real estate. In January, I acquired homes in Malibu for $32million, and the returns on investment far exceed what I earned as a collector.

@stevenorris1 Ай бұрын

How did you grow your portfolio to $32m, I'm impressed, I have a lump sum in the bank, the rates are not impressive so I'm moving it, what's your cash flow like?

@alihossan6655 Ай бұрын

I have a financial advisor (trader) she grows my liquid assets and I reinvest the weekly payouts back into real estate and long-term ETFs like VOO and SCHD. I have also started acquiring some tech ETFs, including IITU and IUCM.

As someone with a 7" wrist, I really appreciate this video. Good choices, I think. But I also agree that it's slightly amusing that you couldn't borrow a friend with a smaller wrist size to model for you. Would really love to see a smaller wrist demo big watches, as @TheNeybor suggested, lmao.

@amilyester Ай бұрын

still so many watch brands (mostly the big names) who refuse to list lug to lug distance/height, and just a case diameter. alot of micros will list these details.

@kkatpheiz Ай бұрын

Yeah, the wrist is wrong here, probably would be better to demonstrate it on women's wrist (no offense, I have 6.1" too), and friendly reminder for all small-wristers - as in video mentioned - lug to lug is WAY more important than diameter.

@jaysterling26 Ай бұрын

Good selection. Watches that I own include: Certina DS action diver 38mm; Hamilton jazzmaster 34mm ( on sites sometimes as ' ladies' watch but it isn’t- 90% brushed ); Seiko 5 - snxs , snkl - old, new stock versins ( creation watches); Dan Henry 1962 ; Seiko SBTR027; CW c63 36mm - wears more 38mm on its bracelet; smaller on a strap.

@patmatsancheese Ай бұрын

Timex watches are truly beautiful, surpassing their price range.

@Desmutted Ай бұрын

Idk how you would call 37 - 40.5 small . Would say small is 32 - 37 depending on the wrist . However solid watches from your pick . Also the timex expedition is more like a gg-w-113 inspired.

@deceivery Ай бұрын

eh i would say by modern standards mens watches only really go as small as 35. but yeah i would agree anything north of 38 is crossing into midsize territory. i have 6.5-6.75 wrists and find 39-40 about as big as i can go without feeling silly

The Nomos is also available with a see-through sapphire crystal caseback for an extra 300 Euros or so

@StandAloneState 28 күн бұрын

The Longines’ lug to lug wears too large even at 37mm. You need at least a 6.5in wrist to make that work.

@Asbu666 29 күн бұрын

Am I tripping or did the Timex have a 2 second interval on the second hand?

It’s low on battery charge, that’s usually an indicator on most quartz solar watches that the battery needs some sunlight 😊

Love the JLC. But that Timex Marlin looks pretty darn nice too.

@kinslowrainer3982 Ай бұрын

Thank you for making this video! There were some interesting selections on here, but I'd say two for each category is just too few. I know you want to keep the video relatively short, but I think doubling the number of watches and talking about each one a bit less would be quite valuable to your viewers. And, yes, that's too big of a wrist for a video that mentions "smaller wrists" right in the title. Also, in no world is 40mm considered small, but you did do a good job coming in under that number. The magic number is 38mm diameter for future videos. Not sure about lug-to-lug measurements, but I suspect somewhere around 45mm would the upper end there. I'm looking forward to your next video on the topic.

1:06 PLEASE don’t ever fold a Reverso like that! It’s supposed to slide in like you slide it out, otherwise it just ends up folding as it wishes, due to the mechanism wearing out.

Well made and informative video. Minor feedback, you missed an opportunity to ask a lady to help you model these as the video lends itself to needing a smaller wrist. An attractive women's wrists would likely have gotten you more clicks.

@sharpe8888 Ай бұрын

Watch nerds don't watch videos for women's wrists. But I agree a smaller wrist would have been good
