Honeymoon with my laureato 8010 salmon dial 🧡
On the wrist today …
36 mm case diameter on my 18.25 cm wrist.
For the tough guys that say they will “only wear 40 mm” and such … I think it’s quite possible to be masculine and elegant at the same time.
Remember that not all watches wear the same. Some wear large and some smaller. Integrated bracelets wear bigger than straps.
It’s all about what you are used to as well.
So I try to mix it up with my case sizes and “train” myself to let go of dogmatic perceptions.
What do you guys think of case diameters and such?

Large watches on slimmer wrists looks comical to me. Just sayin … 🫶🏼
Beautiful and very elegant Laureato.
And watch sizes are very personal and subjective : there is no wrong or right. Wearing pleasure is all what matters 🙂
There is absolutely a wrong …
🤣 Ok, it’s the wearer’s money so they can wear their pants up to their chin if they like. But some guys with slim wrists who are wearing large watches, lugs protruding out … Looks comical to me. And I’m sure while it’s up to the said wearer, I’m pretty su...
Glad to see you enjoying this one Marc!
Regarding case sizes, fit and wearability: This is extremely important to me. I actually just sold my Sub 114060 for this reason. It wore too bulky and blocky on my 7 inch wrist . I won’t wear a watch with any lug overhang. They are wrist watches, and as ...
Well done 👏
And well said. Spread the word when ppl say case diameter is the end all and be all … slap them gently. 🤣
