The chicken'wrist thread: wristshots and sizes inside
Hello!
This thread has been made for those who wil never - ever - think about a DSSD, for those who have big **** but chicken wrist! Two rules here: WRISTSHOT, and WRISTSIZE! Here is my tender 16610LV, on 14,6cm wrist (5,7"). It looks like a DSSD, doesn't it? [/URL] [/URL]

My left wrist is 6.7 inches. Sub-C looks perfect. DJ is just right. My right wrist doesn't see any action. I've never measured it.

I have 6.25" wrists on a warm day, and I just took a lot of pictures at the local AD this morning of various Rolexes on my wrist. I've also included my Yacht-Master and my Omegas for comparison sake.

Keep on mind that the 16610LV has got a half-link: without it, I would have had to get a permanent link off (on a 16600 for example).
I just reversed the bracelet to get the buckle centered. I am pretty happy with 40mm watches: it has got a lot of wrist presence, even with 5digits serial ones.

This post really shows how the Hulk "wears bigger" than other sport watches; those beefed up lugs make a difference.

perfect fit on small wrist
Small wrist here, approx 6.25. My perfect setup is a 93150 bracelet with eight links (4 per side).
Here are the watches that I considered too large: Submariner 16800's, Omega 3510 moonwatch & Sinn panda Here the ones that fit perfect: White sub 1680; Pepsi 1675 and Datejust 1603.

My 42mm Seiko diver on my 6.25'' wrist.
42mm is the biggest I can wear, bigger would look odd. |
