Reverso sizing

Looking at most likely picking up a medium classic small seconds but questioning wether a large would be better. Can’t try on where I am. I favor 36-40mm watches usually, thoughts? Pics?

I have a large Reverso Duo on a smallish 6.5 inch wrist and I think it works. I know things are bottled up with covid, but you really have to try a Reverso on to see if it fits. It’s not only the size, but how it sits on your wrist. I will post pix of mine.

I think med might be a touch too small. I too like 36-40mm watches as I have smallish wrist.

I previously owned a Reverso Tribute to 1931. A little small for me.

I was inspired to put on my Reverso and it looks a lot smaller in person than it does in the above picture.

The NYC boutique is lovely, staff great, but no discount. Big discounts on common Reversos at authorized dealers.

One of my favorite watches.

I tried one on a while ago, I have flat wrists on top, part of the reason I gravitated toward a 36 vs 40 dd at one point, you ever here the large with short sleeves? I’m looking at the leather band version non duo

Here are a couple of shots of my Grand Taille case (ever so slightly larger than the current medium, I believe) on my 17cm wrist. Fits well, but it's certainly the smallest I wear. Would say it's comparable to a 36mm to me.

Yes, equivalent of a large, which appears much smaller in real life.
