    Hello and good day. I have recently tried a Moonwatch and was wondering about the forum's opinion on whether it fits fine or if it's too big on my 6.75" round wrist. I am a watch bracelet kind of guy so I wouldn't change straps if I ever get the watch.

    Dude...you need to visit Burger King and eat a wheelbarrow full of Whoppers and beef that wrist up...that Speedy Gonzales Moonwatch looks like a boat anchor. ;)

    Just kidding! :D

    Seriously...it looks good in my humble opinion! :thumbsup:

    To be fair, most people I know, including the Gf says I have girly hands and wrist, so no worries :D

    Anyway, it's probably because of the first two links protruding like that, that I see it as kind of big on my wrist. Also the fact that my daily wear is a 36mm vintage Connie. Thanks for the reply! :thumbsup:

    I think it looks good.

    I also like the R34 in your avatar (for obvious reasons). :)

    As usual, if you have to start a thread to ask the question, that means you already know (at least on some level) that it's too big for your wrist. I agree.

    I'll say that with a 6.5" wrist, I always feel scrawny in OB's or AD's when trying on watches because of the ginormous sagging bracelet. But with the bracelet sized correctly it feels totally different and a lot less clunky.

    Yes, I do think it's big, at least bigger than what I'm used to wearing, but not too big in the sense that It's like a wall clock on the wrist. That's why I wanted to ask for opinions here because the Moonwatch is a popular Omega watch and people with various wrist sizes wear them.

    Lookin' good. The lugs are at the limits of your wrist, so be weary of future watch purchases with a case above 42mm

    I have a 6.75 wrist with 53mm width across viewing from the top. Moonwatch on bracelet is indeed a bit too large due to the solid end link, but, it fits like a dream on straps.

    I find that the end links flare out a bit causing it to look a tad large but if you put it in leather or a nato, the true lug to lug on the case fits well. I have a 6.5 inch wrist and the bracelet wears fine. Wears even better on other options.

    I think it looks good, but if you want something a little bit smaller you should check out the FOIS

    Only on the newer model bracelet. The older ones don't have that problem.... even the last generation 1998/849 with sold end links.

    Yep, your are right. I was referring to newer speedies, 3590 and earlier models has a shorter end link

    It looks nice on anybody.
    The question is around the size on a small wrist.

    I have rather thin wrists as well so when I first got my speedy pro, I thought it was way too big on me. After wearing it for a few days, I got used to the size rather quickly. You might just not be used to the size yet. I think it looks good on you.

    It still may be too big.
