I got a 16.5mm wrist and this blue 37mm looks perfect. The dial is not supposed to be huge as this is strictly not a sport watch like a Rolex Sub or GMT. It is refined and classy and the dial size represents that.
Thanks, I agree, the 37mm looks even nicer on bigger wrists than mine (as I mentioned in the video). However, the RO is a sports watch, maybe different than a Rolex but still a sports watch. When it was first launched in 1972 it was not meant to be small at all, back then 39mm was far beyond average, hence the nickname "Jumbo"
Yes I would agree as I have the same sized wrist as you. The Cartier 2113 Chronograph is just perfection as is the Omega 37.5mm Planet Ocean Chronograph - both which I own. There are not many options on the market and the understanding from manufacturers seems to be going smaller as huge watches on small wrists look ridiculous. I have yet to see a watchmaker wearing a huge watch.

From the title of the video, I was expecting to see some side by side comparisons, not just one 37mm. Without other different size watches, we cannot see the size differences.
Thanks for the feedback, fair point! Unfortunately I didn‘t have other sizes available, was hoping that the info in the video was also somewhat helpful. Will do another one when I get my hands on some of the other models.
Thanks for the comment, I understand what you mean. I could definitely wear the 37mm (while it looks different in reality). Regardless of that I prefer the 38mm, will do another video once I have it on my wrist
that being marketed as a ladies watch is CRAZY. no offense to anyone, but one overlooked reasoning of the giant watch hype is literally the worlds obesity rate climbing
if I'm being completely honest, that shit almost looks too big for you, and i would stick with a darker dial to make it appear smaller for your wrists.
RO 37mm is woman size 👯♀️ Toooo small dial and 37mm RO dial is smaller than 36mm datejust dial. It is a big disaster. Looks like a gay 41mm RO is for normal men. 39mm RO is for unisex. No more choice I think.
Can't wait until they come out with a 38mm. They should have came out with that in a 38mm, instead of the chronograph. Or, at least came out with one 38mm version along side the chronographs
Great video, would be happy to see more of them coming. I am planing to get the gray dial version. May I ask Your wrist size? Did You have to remove any links?
Thanks, glad to hear you found it interesting. I think my wrist is ca 15.5cm (always depends where/how you measure it) and I had to remove two links. However, I would argue wrist span is more important than overall size/circumference (I have a rather thin and flat wrist).
Hi Cem, from end to end link this watch wears like a 39mm - similar to a Rolex Daytona or Tudor Black Bay 58. I would say for a 16mm wrist it would fill your full wrist comfortably with one link removed, or for 16.5 - 17.5mm wrist no link removal is required. 17.5mm+ will be a stretch or more link(s) required.
With the 41, you can’t see the transition to the iconic band. All you see is the watch face. Also, I would argue, big isn’t all that special anymore. In fact, you see all these invictas and fossil watches in giant 45s. It’s no longer cool. Restraint is the way to go.
my choice 15450st i had 15202st that not sporty, and 15450 is good coulor for me. 15400 is too much long index. 15500 is too short index. if coordinate T shirts its ok big watch. but formal shirt 37mm best for me. And 39mm is too much high price now.
Agree, unfortunately it wears too large on my wrist. Besides that I must say I prefer the Grande Tapisserie to the Petite Tapisserie, but that's clearly a matter of taste/preference

Too much tabletalk mixed with personal opinion without full understanding of the historical significance of caliber 2121/2120 but hey, we all started our watch collection journey somewhere so good job nonetheless. 👍
Minimum 42 mm for me Of any watch. 37 mm looks like a stamp on me like a spec. How could anyone put such a tiny watching the rest unless they have pencil wrists. I like Rolex 43 mm the only one seat while it because it’s large enough for my wrist. I also like the offshore because it’s 42 mm and appears large. 41 mm looks a little tiny on me. And I’m not fat I have 8 1/2 wrist

The dial is perfect and you certainly don't need a bigger face for your wrist. It all looks well proportioned which is the most important thing!

I have a 41 mm, 7.25 inch wrist. I wish I had 37 mm.
Excellent video and info

37mm is woman’s size👯♀️ for under 15cm waist.
I have a 37mm in blue , agree that the dial seems a bit small
Glad to hear that you feel the same way :)
RO 37mm is woman size 👯♀️ Toooo small dial and 37mm RO dial is smaller than 36mm datejust dial. It is a big disaster. Looks like a gay
41mm RO is for normal men.
39mm RO is for unisex.
No more choice I think.
39 is the perfect size in the ROYAL Oak
I got wrist span less than 50mm with 15.5mm wrist dia! This watch looks perfect! I got the blue dial but the white one more interesting!
Can't wait until they come out with a 38mm. They should have came out with that in a 38mm, instead of the chronograph. Or, at least came out with one 38mm version along side the chronographs

15300 is the best they should bring it back I own one in black perfect watch
Yes indeed, to bad they stopped production, I guess they wanted a clear separation vs the 15202
Good stuff 👍🏻
The Blancpain 50 fathoms diver is another and better finished option that is more readily available. Discuss anyone?

There is also 15300 that is 39mm, which is even better than 15450 and 15500
I think it looks great on you 👍
34mm
Could you list the size of the dial (i.e. crystal diameter)?
180cm hight 17.2mm wtist
i sold 39mm bought 37mm
17.2 mm wow that’s really quite slim 😂
i have the same wrist thinking to get the 37mm what do you think ?
my choice 15450st
i had 15202st that not sporty, and 15450 is good coulor for me.
15400 is too much long index.
15500 is too short index.
if coordinate T shirts its ok big watch. but formal shirt 37mm best for me.
And 39mm is too much high price now.
37mm is woman’s size 👯♀️😆
Well I got 41 mm, but I couldn’t choose. They had one to choose from, the rest was gone or just on a waiting list
How long did you need to wait? Any purchase history needed?
39mm is the perfect size
Agree, unfortunately it wears too large on my wrist. Besides that I must say I prefer the Grande Tapisserie to the Petite Tapisserie, but that's clearly a matter of taste/preference
@@watchyouare what size is your wrist?
But 39mm is almost impossible to get from the boutique.
37mm
Would you mind telling me your wrist size?
This 37mm look very well proportion to your wrist.
Hi Jakk, my wrist should be about 15.5cm in circumference
@@watchyouare Thanks, nice watch.
What’s your wrist size
I thought i had small wrist
What’s ur wrist size?
15.5cm
Thought the size looked perfect
We don't care that you don't like leather

I think
41mm RO is for normal men.
39mm RO is for unisex.
No more choice.
which is the perfect size, only shows 1 lol
why did you delete your comment? I can tell by your voice you got 2 inches at most.
Too much tabletalk mixed with personal opinion without full understanding of the historical significance of caliber 2121/2120 but hey, we all started our watch collection journey somewhere so good job nonetheless. 👍
this is pathetic.. you really need gloves to handle a watch lol
when it is waiting to be sold at a price of $25k? of course lol. I wouldnt want some schmucks fingerprints on my 25k watch i just bought.
how is that pathetic? would you buy a new sports car that needed to be washed and detailed?

For most feminine sized men 39 is the best size. For normal sized men 41
