What’s your wrist size?

Steve Essex · Jul 28, 2018

I’ve always considered my wrists to be skinny, snappable twigs. In a recent post of mine regarding clasps, I was asked my wrist size. Turns out they are 7 3/4” which, looking around, seems about average. I’m 5’11 and 15 1/2 stone. What’s your wrist size?

How do I measure it?

Steve Essex · Jul 28, 2018

Well, I just used a tape measure but reading this, I should have added 1.5cm to my measurement. Anyway, my wrist size changes throughout the day so I have an adjustable clasp.

6.5" but luckily flat rather than round so I can wear a decent range of watches. 36mm the sweet spot though .

41.5mm on me. Flat wrists, thin side-on, shaped like a cricket bat!

🤪 getting sick & confused here with measurements in inches and millimeters 🤪
.
Remember that's why NASA's Mars Climate Orbiter was lost in 1999 as Lockheed Martin engineering team used English units of measurement while the agency's team used the more conventional metric system

Mine just under 7" but flat. Sweet spot 37-39 that I like nowadays. Speedy Moonwatch 42 mm fits well so does Seiko Turtle 45 mm.

“Just the facts, just the facts” sgt Friday. Ohhhhh...I get it now. You thought I was talkin dirty. I had a big watch in mind.

DIV · Jul 28, 2018

6-1/2 to 6-3/4 in the summer. 36-40mm seems to be my speetspot for watch diameter (what else is new!?)

Spruce · Jul 28, 2018

Six and a half inches for me - wrist too! 😉

Looks like all that pen-pushing excercise paid off.

Hmm I am the bird bone one here. 6". Does mean that the modern trend of ever larger watches look a bit daft on me.
