SirDomino 0 Posted January 9, 2012 I have a friend who has wanted a nice watch for a while, but he has VERY small wrists. All jokes aside, I am wondering if there were any suggestions on a great looking watch for a man with small wrists. He wears a lot of suits of various colors and is also somewhat short. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 81 Posted January 9, 2012 Rolex Datejust or Day/Date. Original version is only 37mm and it's a very elegant watch, yet it has enough wrist presence to work for pretty well any size wrist, small or large. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
opus9 0 Posted January 9, 2012 whats small?I have a 16.5 cm wrist but wear 43-49mm reps...measurements would help... A 'friend'... reminds me of when I was young... Q. What would you advise 'I have a friend who has got these spots on his knob'... A. Well i would tell 'your friend'..etc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarkA 1 Posted January 9, 2012 Rolex Explorer I. There are two versions of that too and it's a great looking watch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amit 72 Posted January 9, 2012 Tell your "friend" the watch Greg recommended is the one to go for Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SirDomino 0 Posted January 9, 2012 Thanks for the suggestions so far. I believe he has a wrist just under 6". As for me, I have an 8" wrist. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Member X 91 Posted January 9, 2012 An extra 2" makes all the difference, so the girls tell me... AirKing is also a great watch for small wrists, it has presence even on a 7" wrist Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Markliquor 0 Posted January 9, 2012 OMG guys this thread cracked me up! I'm not the friend but I do have pretty small wrists for some reason. (Oh and don't be fooled I get a lot of "Ouch, not that deep!" from the ladies...and no it's not peg wood sized ) But why not wear a big ass watch still? Sure it'll look extra bulky but I think that's a plus!...it's like skinny girls with giantic knockers . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

solkryssare 109 Posted January 9, 2012 Vintage Daytona, like the one greg just got. Or just a sub. No wrist is too small for a Sub Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Member X 91 Posted January 10, 2012 Mid-sized DJs are always good, but I think a full-size (36mm) will be your best bet. Plenty of options available, effectively there are millions of combinations of dial / bezel / SS / TT / strap...!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KeNnY 29 Posted January 10, 2012 60mm Pam Big Egi Nah, just everything under 40mm would be great, ROlex Presidends, or Even Omega Moonie would be awesome choice ! My wrist is 17,5cm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wiggindude 0 Posted January 10, 2012 I have a 6" wrist and Bell&Ross 42mm looks fine. I am thinking of going up to 44mm but I think that might be too big (that's what she said) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
