My wrist is exactly the same size as yours. I tried it on and looked ridiculously large. Unfortunately, with a certain wrist size you can't have everything.

Zeitwerk on 6" wrist?

Hello Purists, Curious about your thoughts on how Zeitwerk (ref 140.029), WG, black dial wears on small wrists. My wrist is about 6 inches (~ 15cm) in diameter and top part is about 5 cm, which approximately matches the lug-to-lug distance. I know that it...

Not just the diameter at 42mm, but also the height at 12.6mm and it doesn’t taper at all. It would lose its elegance on a small wrist. Lange makes a bunch of watches at 38.5mm, many of the Lange 1 and the Saxonia’s.
Honestly... It doesn't look great on a small wrist...

I'd pass on the ZW. They're painful to wind. Difficult to live with. And they're not that reliable. They're not comfortable too, they're thick, heavy, and you strap them fairly tight on your wrist (since they'd somersault on your wrist due to the weight)....
Nope.

6" wrist (same as yours) and platinum ZW Striking Time (larger and heavier than a standard ZW) here. I wear it on a custom short-length strap with the detachable (quick-release) Lange deployant buckle that's typically found on the Lange 31 and certain oth...
Great info!
