I want 35mm watch. Unfortunately most vintage watches on eBay which attract my eyes have 30-32mm size, that the reason I search for this kind of video. 😅

To be honest there was a time when I thought a small watch just didn’t cut it. I usually go for a 40-42 mm piece. But upon acquiring and wearing my grandfathers 34mm 1960’s watch sure has changed my perspective. There’s just something very timeless and elegant about a nicely crafted small time piece.

Large watches always look gaudy to me. Gaudy is the perfect word for it because they come off as tastelessly showy. It always just seems to me that the wearer is trying too hard especially when they have a small wrist. It's the equivalent of putting a massive lift on a truck so that it no longer becomes practical to use...sure you get looks but no one is looking because they're impressed, they're looking because it stands out tastelessly.

It's the equivalent of putting a Hummer or other huge SUV on your wrist and trying to impress people with the sheer size of them. "Wow, look at how big that guy's watch is. He must be really cool, rich and important!" I mean, come on. It's ridiculous, it's cheap (no matter if the watch costs 6 figures) and it will only impress shallow bimbos. I am a sucker for vintage type dress watches. My favorite everyday go to probably is my 1968 Omega Constellation with a certified cal.564 chronometer movement. It's small, it's flat with a beautiful C-shape body and I get compliments on it all the time. And, above all else, after 54 years it still keeps the time exactly to +1sec/day. Now, if that's not manly then I don't know what is.

Depends on the type of watch. Certain sports watches and aviator watches probably still look great as big as 42mm, but for a dress watch or casual watch a better size is probably between 35mm to 39mm. Below 35mm for men probably looks odd unless it's a vintage or the guy has very small wrists. While I've never passed on a modern watch for being too small (as the smallest are typically around 36mm), I've definitely passed on buying a modern watch I otherwise liked because I thought it was just too big. I can't bring myself to buy a dress watch bigger than 39mm, and while I'd go as big as 42mm on a divers/sports...they'd have to really have a wow factor for me personally to want to go that big.

I like small watches however for practicality's sake as a pilot anything less than 35mm is a little too small and compromises legibility in the cockpit. The SARB033 is currently my smallest and the smallest I am willing to use for flying. For flying all my watches are 45mm or above for legibility.

Great video Jory and actually today I have changed the watch strap on my newly purchased vintage 34mm Ingersoll watch and will quite happily be wearing it tomorrow to work. Think there is an initial shock when you first put on a smaller watch when you aren't used to it, and it does make you a little self conscious about it. But that literally lasts a few mins and I personally now am more than comfortable wearing a smaller watch than I used to be. You just have to try it.. But, like everything else its all what you feel comfortable with

I have fairly small wrists (6.5") and by far the biggest watch I own is 45mm (I would NEVER go larger than that with my wrists), it is a little big and I much prefer the 35-40 range. I think what is most key is finding the watch that you love and that you feel fits best with you. also, be confident enough in your style to not judge other for wearing a small watch!

I think it depends on the shape of the watch, too - rectangular watches can have a smaller width and still look ok, and likewise small watches with relatively long lug-to-lug sizes (like the Hamilton Khaki Mechanical) can look ok despite their small width. That said, size is a matter of fashion, and like other commenters have said, the examples you used wore watches that, while small by today's standards, were just normal size in their day. I guess if enough people (or the right people) start wearing and promoting smaller watches we'll see a sea change, but as things stand today a 36mm watch on a (using myself as an example) 7.5 inch wrist looks odd or slightly comical, or "worse" (to a certain kind of insecure man), feminine. Even the 37mm Seiko 5 I'm wearing takes some getting used to after wearing 40mm+ watches, and even more so after my G-Shock GA-800.

Hello. I'm a big guy. On a good day I have an 8 3/4" wrist. I think I look silly wearing a 36-40mm watch. That's just me of course. Don't get me wrong, I think watches like Diesel, some Invicta, etc. watches look ridiculous. But I'm most comfortable with 46-50mm cases. By the way, I do enjoy watching your videos. You understand people are different, as are their likes, dislikes, and preferences. Believe me, some people are completely intolerant of tastes not their own. I just forced myself to finish watching a twenty-something fashionista, wearing skinny jeans and hair gel, tell me what type and size watch to wear, where to wear it, and why I'm a fool if I disagree with him. Go figure... Anyway, thanks for your efforts brother. I how you've had a good weekend. Mike P. WhorizonEarth

I have smaller wrists, I find that my Marathon Medium Quarts Diver (36mm) on an OEM Marathon 18mm stainless steel bracelet and my Seiko Sarb033 (38mm) on a rally leather strap work very nicely. I do have an SKX as well and I find it's borderline at 42mm.

The only one that I'm mad at are those watch companies who have awesome looking watches but never have a smaller option for people who likes smaller watches. And those people who laugh at me when they see me wearing smaller watches.

Eight and a quarter inch wrist and need reading glasses don’t think anything under 40/42 works for me! Anything smaller looks like a bracelet but appreciate you trying.

If you look at watch ads and promotional films from the past, men's watch sizes would be considered tiny today; go a bit further back, 30mm was not unusual for the first decades of the 20th century. Part of it was due to the connotation of being high-tech due to miniaturization, and then there's the fashion factor. At the time men were rarely seen without their shirt, suit, hat and tie ensemble, a small and slim watch would be essential for slipping in an out of the shirt cuff easily without help from the other hand: the body-cross where one arm crosses over to the other side of the body sends signals of displeasure, not something a gentleman would want to do. Thicker and bigger wristwatches were around, but they're specialist tool watches for pilots, divers, etc, wearing those outside situations where they were useful was a serious fashion blunder. But as fashion changed where men started dressing a bit more casual, the need for a watch to slip in and out of a shirt cuff easily became less serious, so the size of watches increased; it's as simple as that.

Dear people who have a problem with guys who wear small watches: IT'S JUST A WATCH. WHO CARES? I'LL WEAR WHAT I WANT, THANK YOU. Sorry Jory for yelling. It wasn't at you. It should have just gone right around you and got the guy you were talking about. ;)

Wearing a watch is not about compensating. It's all about enjoying a nice time piece for yourself. I like to wear my little Marathon general purpose field watch or my all white Swatch.

7.5" wrist here and the Seiko SNKs and a 40mm Sub homage I had (an Invicta, 😱❗) are what I had felt the most comfortable so far... not that my SNZG and Sea Urchin are not a good fit, those smaller cases just feel better in my wrist...

don't think I want to go any smaller than 32mm (just because anything smaller than that feels too fragile) other than rectangular watches (really want a gruen curvex 311)
