Great tip to open your hand when measuring. I didn't know that! Thanks.
Oh yeah you definitely have to open your hand. Depending on how your arm muscles are from a clinched fist to a splayed hand there could be a huge difference. I wasn’t sure if you measure it on the wrist bone or right behind it
I looked at this video and thought "omg how does this take 5 minutes to explain"
But i watched it all and you made it really informative! Thanks =D
All I can say is thank you , we learn everyday🤙
Great video! I have pretty much the same wrist size as you, what watch case diameter fits you the best. I thought all the watches you tried looked perfectly sized for your wrist. I want to avoid buying sizes that go beyond the width of my wrist.
Thanks for the pointers in wrist-measuring!
My pleasure!
So simple…but so helpful! Merci!!
is 7.5 inch wrist good for g shock gg-1000-1a3
"...your wrists don't have exactly the same size"
My Right hand:
Great video. Thanks for sharing it 👍🏽👍🏽
Thank You! Exactly what I was looking for ! 😊 G
Thanks for the info; great video edit. Cheers!
Excellent information! Thank You so much!
16,5 cm = 6,5 inch here.
Waiting for a 33 mm Casio and 38 mm Seiko 5 in the mail. My current 40 mm feels like the limit, but maybe 42 mm could work, too? Not sure...
I'd like to try some in a store, but they are pretty intimidating, to be honest...
Depends on the lug to lug size. Some smaller watches even wear bigger.
Great video. Very helpful. Thanks!
Very instructive. Thank you very much.
Is a 7.0 inch watch pretty normal ?
your wrists look so thick, how 15 cm?
Do you have the ideal weight for your height?
Hi. May I ask bec. we have the same wrist size, what's your watch size, 40mm or 42mm?
Very insightful video. Thanks!
What is the ideal wrist size to wear steel strap watch
Bro please reply hurrycan watch watch which mm ❓ strep here
I am willing to toss my watch band in the trash if it is not adjustable. If my band has no pins to adjust that are easily accessible is it a cheapie?
I have a question, im a 1st timer rolex gmt master 2 owner, it is normal to a watch to stop running specially at night when ur not using it or when it's not fitted to ur wrist? Hope someone can answer.
Safarudin Manampan no not normal post to me and I will get rid of it for you free of charge
Probably wasn't wounded up all the way, and the power reserve is about a day and a half. So yes if you don't wear it it will stop working, mechanical watches are different from quartz watches.
@@abrahamvinod9804 lmao
I thought these measurements would be totally obvious, but there is more detail/diiferences here than I imagined - thanks.
My wrist is 15cm, what case size should I go for? 38mm? 41mm?
Always try watches which do not go past your wrist lug to lug. Although you could go a little overboard if you are muscular or longer limbs
What is the meaning of 10 x 10 cm bracelet in inches?
Excellent video.
Thank you so much Bobby!
I was surprised because I am a small person, my wrists seem rather small,. but they measure 7" and when I was shopping for a bracelet, John Hardy listed 6.75" to 7" as large, so I thought I was measuring wrong.
What Apple Watch size do you wear
Great vid thanks! I am going to get a bracelet watch do you consider heat and expanding skin when choosing a size?
Yes I do! Just go a little larger than you would on a normal / cold day. Or else on hot days, you'll get a handcuff!
Thank you this really helped
I wanted to buy a Miltat Strap code End Mill Jubilee Bracelet for my Seiko King Turtle but my Wrist measures 242mm so it is impossible.
Hey you should do a video os different prices of white dial watches!
You read my mind. I was working on this today, it should be live Saturday if everything goes as planned
FINALLY, TAHNK YOU. MAY GOD BLESS YOU
I have 21 cm wrist size is cant wear any rolex (stock) 😮
Great video especially when I’m of the same wrist size as you
Good Info. Thanks.
Hi, do you think a Lorier Neptune 3 would look good on 17cm wrist flat type :) ?
Good
Thank you 😊
Awesome thank you!
Can you just measure the diameter of your watch when open?
Why don't you review SNKP17J1 and SNKP18J1?
Your slander wrist is bigger than mine..so difficult to find a watch
What Mm of dial will suit a 6.5 inch wrist
44 - 48mm lug to lug, no more than that imo.
Mine is 8.5 inch, is it good
Every inch (mm) counts in some cases.
Thanks
Thank you.
My wrist is between 9 and 10 inches
Hot
9.5 😂
You serious
@@kurikumo4803 yep I have big hands too
Dang....ok frankenstein lol 😆 jk
Somehow I wanna hear Mobb Deep's "Trife Life" now
Outstanding
19 cm wrist, 188 cm height and 95 kg... What diameter is for me? I like 48 mm swiss military a lot... Do you think is ok?
@hiphophead555 is it true that you should add half a inch to your measurement for comfort?
@hiphophead555 oh ok because my wrist size is 6.6 inches and i want to get a galaxy watch active 2 but idk if I should get the 40mm or 44 mm
@hiphophead555 ok thanks
Thought my wrist was 15cm, it was 16cm making for 160mm, PERFECT.
1.72 inch
And you forgot to mention the scale of adjustment of the metal watch strap. The brochure said its length was 17.5 cm and my wrist 21 cm.
That's why u western are so far reached from us ❤

I thought my wrist was 6.5 inches, it's actually 6.75 inches. Thanks
You're lucky my friend, your wrist is HUGE compared to mine ;)
@@TimedSquare bruh, mine is around 6.7 inches but yours look larger
Mine is 17 cm and it does not look any bigger than yours.I think the shape of the wrist is also important to fit the watch.
Mine is 9 inches, from the ground!! 😂
@@domnic6271 flat wrists, mine is 6.75" aswell, buy I can easily sport an oversized watch, I now rock a 44 mm watch which fits perfectly, since my wrist is rather flat than round, it looks proportionist,
It's been 3 years, I hope you're alive man
mine is 173 mm 6.8 inches i feel that most watches look big on my wrists
i have a 15 cm wrist (150mm) and no, I'd say watches with a case diameter between 40-44mm look good on yours
@@iacobc.6845 44mm would be too big, but up to 42 is shortish lug to lug, 48mm or less
Slender: If you are going to reply to posts, then answer the questions...
... Don't hide behind a bunch of "Thank You's"!!!
Thank you
@@TimedSquare Well played lmao
@@TimedSquare 😂
My wrist diameter is 18cm
Should watches be super tight?
Not really. Aim for comfortable. If it means tight for you, then tight it is :)
It depends on a person’s preference, but generally people like them to be tight enough to not slide around, but not tight enough to be uncomfortable and cut off the blood flow.
My personal idea is wearing something under 41mm is perfect for all the short men under 165cm height.
42mm is good too
It doesn’t have much to do with height, I’m 184cm and my 37mm looks good on me because I have skinny wrists. It does look a bit small compared to the size of my arms and hands
me and my 26cm wrist getting no watches
Damn... wrist circumference = willy length
When you’re an amputee 😔
My d is like a inch longer than my wrist.
So i have 7,20 inches, i guess thats why i hate watches under 40 mm. 😅
yeah even though i thought my wrists were small lol
riiii.... betttt 🤣🤣🤣🤣
wtf you are making 8 minutes video just to measus your hand
My girlfriend says I'm above average size. That true?
Thanks!
wonderful video. Thank you
