I purchased the ladies Victoronix Maverick 34mm as an inexpensive grab and go watch. It's 34mm and I love it! Also the Glycine Combat Sub 36 is an amazing watch for the money. That's my daily now.

It's so frustrating to find a "normal" sized watch as a woman these days. Women's watches are typically ridiculously tiny and men's watches just get bigger and bigger. I find myself going to vintage men's watches for more medium sizes. I mean, some of us aren't trying to prove how itty bitty or how super macho we are with the size of our watch. We just want a nice watch that fits well!

Such a narrow view in world of bazillion of choices by restricting it with a "vintage style"? Skagen and casio also made plentiful of a perfect size below 40mm just like Timex but more modern in Design. Oh, if you're not looking to be validation with "Brand" there's plenty of chinese made "fashion/boutique" watches with fantastic built & accuracy these day. Nowadays it's very subjective accessories to own, because I saw no difference in time keeping accuracy between my $8 chinese made and my $800 Timex. I saw plenty of naysayers in watch forum saying cheap watches are "inaccurate" such a hogwash statement! My eye widens when i realized my discoveries. As for chinese ones, i suggest you should take look at Rebirth watch they're an expert on smaller watches with "vintage size" but much modern in design

Great vid Brock, I really appreciate how you emphasized lug to lug measurements as that is really what determines suitability more than people realize even though that damn measurement is rarely if ever mentioned on watch specs. One thing to add: shape of the lugs matters too. I can get away with longer lugs when they curve down versus go straight out and with my 6" wrist that is what allows me to sometimes get away with a 38-39mm versus a 35-37mm. Props for highlighting this all with some sweet Nomos selections though :)

My wrist is roughly 6.7 so it's on the smaller side. 41,5 mm Mako looks perfect. HOWEVER the biggest problem having smaller wrist is finding good fitting leather strap. Sometimes I even need additional holes and usually the strap end is way too long (the end gets loose and flappy) so I end up putting the strap in a drawer. Finding nice looking strap (especially online) is much more challenging than choosing a case size. My only solution is bracelet, nato straps or adjustable (with scissors lol) rubber straps. Maybe I haven't had a quality leather strap where that little leather ring (to fixate the strap) is very sturdy and can hold the strap in place.

Very interesting video. I love Nomos as a brand and their watches and in fact I'm looking to purchase one of their watches. Here's the thing though...... I also have 6.25 inch wrists, and the watches that have 100m or above WR are 40mm or above. I tend to settle for 100m WR as a "safe" OPTION. I understand that companies like to keep higher WR for their sports models, but a lot of these Nomos watches can easily be dressed down such is their Bauhaus style. The Ahoi Date is the one I'm looking to purchase. It's 40mm, but I really wish it was also available in 38mm.

@alexandermarquardt597 4 жыл бұрын

Bought a club, about the size, I cant emphasize this enough: try the Ahoi on. Even the colour (I went for signalblau with mine after I saw it in real life) makes a difference. Only problem: you will end up buying an expensive watch WAY faster than planned after you had that experience. (maybe just me)

@christophneuschaeffer7489 2 жыл бұрын

Just like Alexander I have two Nomos watches. A Tangente 38 Date with hand winding as a dress watch. For me it epitomizes what Nomos is all about: Bauhaus elegance at its finest. You should definitely try a Nomos Ahoi though. I have the Atlantik date, the dark blue version of it. Although a 40 mm watch fits better on my nearly 7 inch wrist than your smaller wrist, you should try it in person, how it looks and feels like. I consider Nomos Ahoi to be one of the very few watches to work well both as dress watch and as a robust everyday and outdoor sports watch. I wear mine regularly while hiking, biking or swimming. There is a third Nomos watch I am still thinking of and that you might want to consider, too: the Tangomat Ruthenium Date. It has 38 mm case diameter just like the larger version of the Tangente. But WR might be an issue, because it is not made for any water activities. That's the job for Ahoi.

@tfergieman 3 жыл бұрын

I’d say that lug to lug (as well as lug curvature) is more important than diameter, by far. Consider a Seiko Tuna. Really any model. ~48 overall diameter, but a lug to lug of ~48 also, as well as an offset crown. The lugs sit low on the wrist, therefore the watch wears extremely well on even small-ish wrists. Then there is a 39mm NOMOS Orion with a lug to lug of ~50mm, and lugs that do not have much curvature, therefore they tend to ride above the curvature of smaller wrists, and the proportions look off. The minimalist bezel makes the dial look bigger as well. A NOMOS Orion in 39mm wears more like a 42mm watch to me, simply because of the lug to lug, lug curvature, and overall proportions.

43 mm in 20(8 inch) cm Good?

@xfall86 Жыл бұрын

6.1 inch wrist and for non sports bezel watches. The max I will go is 38mm. So 35 (dressy) to 38mm (sporty)

The case diameter can be rather big, but the actual dial diameter can be much smaller. In this case even 41 mm case watches may look nice on 6.25 mm wrists because the dial is only like 30mm or less. But the bezel should be bright for this effect I think.

Same. Focus on dial diameter match on your wrists first. Then big/thin bezzel with no prob. Example you are good in 40mm at your wrists. No matter with your big bezzel (make into 43mm) or thin bezzel (make it to 41mm only) its still good in your wrists. Conclussion, small wrists wearing case 38mm with big bezzel is looks funny instead same case 38mm with thin bezzel.

if someone thinks they look good with a bigger or smaller watch, that is up to them (regardless of what others may say). Stay safe.

I would say, in general a 39mm diver looks good on most wrists

34mm Rolex Dj for a 6.5 inch wrist?

I just bought on eBay a luxury watch from a private seller listing his watch case as 36mm which was ideal for my 6.25inch wrist. When I received it I measured case and it's 38mm which I think looks a little too big. I hate it when sellers don't take listing items accurately seriously. I spent a lot on something I'm not 100% happy with but I will keep.

5:20 There are 2 wrist guides. What's the difference between the guide on the top (7") and the one on the bottom (6" and 7")? If my wrist circumference is 6.1" (15.7cm), which one is the best size for me? Is it the 37-41mm one?

@BrockMcGoff 4 жыл бұрын

They're overlapping. Your wrist is basically 6" so go with that "zone".

Usually dress watch are smaller in size. Regardless I still prefer 40mm and above for my wrist. I would wear diver with formal wear.

I don't know but i think that 41mm looks best for you

Hey I am a super skinny guy (6" wrist range) and I am having trouble finding thin watches. I don't know if my skinny wrists look right in watches that are 10mm thick or over and most automatic watches I find are at the minimum 10mm. Any help or advice?

@BrockMcGoff 4 жыл бұрын

You can find hand winding mechanical watches that are very thin (like the 35 and 37 Nomos in this video). Autos are generally a little thicker, but I think 9-10mm is still okay for you, as long as the diameter and lug to lug is small.

@joshackermann7679 4 жыл бұрын

If you like Nomos, the Minimatik is small and very thin.

@Stanjara 4 жыл бұрын

Don't worry about thickness, 1cm if fine. Size is the problem for you. Try looking at lady versions of popular models. Timex Marlin is excellent. Also Seiko Presage line has some lady 33.8mm models. Nomos is really expensive to recommend for someone who doesn't know how he feels with watch sizes. Tissot Everytime medium is also great. If you want thin, try Citizen Ecodrive ...mmm...Stiletto.
