I have the 44mm in titanium and most of the time I forget I'm even wearing it, absolutely love it. My wrist is a smidge over 6.5" give or take.

I had a chance to do this with the platinum 44mm while I was in Sydney, the salesman let me throw it on and wear it for a half hour while we were walking around checking other pieces. Really allowed me to realize that it wouldn't be a piece I'd feel comfortable wearing on a daily basis, but definitely every so often. |

ROO 44mm for the small wrist
I’m just surprised how good it looks on your wrist I’m at 6.75” and looks like a perfect fit, I don’t have a boutique or AD here in the DFW area but on my next out of town trip I’ll try to check one out in person, just by looking at yours maybe if I see a good deal in TRF I’ll just buy one, thanks for sharing your personal experience.

I have a 6.5” wrist. Here are pics of both the 44 and 42 ROOs for reference.

What size you feel more comfortable, I have the 42mm, the 44mm looks good, do you have any pics without the sweater ?

I prefer the looks of the 44s but the 42s are more suitable for smaller wrists. Here is a photo that you asked for. ![]() Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Thank you bud, I think the 44 actually looks better on your wrist then the 42 for some reason

I have 6.5” wrist and absolutely adore my 44ROO ceramic , I do feel it’s a tad too big but I don’t care
If it were my only watch though it would be a bit too much. ![]() ![]() |

It depends on the shape of your wrist. If it's flat (as most pics above) you could pull it off.

If you are going 44 and have a smaller wrist it also helps a lot to go with the light versions as well I think (so basically Ti and Ce).

This is how it wears on my small 6.5” wrist. I haven’t got it as yet and tried it a few times as in this photo before I pulled the trigger for new green camo that I’m hoping to receive next month.
I’ll post my video review on how it wears on my 6.5” wrist here as well ;) ![]() Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

No problem with a smaller wrist on my previous FC 44, though a shorter strap helped improve the fit.
Also, a lighter material (FC, ceramic, Ti) may also help with wearability. ![]() |

If you have a smaller wrist, I would suggest titanium or ceramic for comfort.

The 44M looks much bigger on a 6.5" wrist in photos than in person. I was hesitant by looking at the photos in the past, when I went to try it on, it looked more proportionate on the wrist in person. A lot also depends on material/color.
