Anyone still wearing 33mm watches out there?
I m just wondering if Anyone still wearing 33-35mm vintage watches on everyday basis? These days I find smaller than 38mm a true pleasure. ...
wow, wonderful collection You have there
I m so glad knowing there are many vintage dial size fans out there.
What's that second watch that you have there amanico?
Really like it myself, and want to learn more about it
Oh yes, all the time…
Probably the only size that make sense on my wrist nowadays… /W72 ...
very nice one You have on.
I like this universal with the design of that era, very timeless.
not on a daily basis
But these are part of my regular rotation Real men don't need to wear 44mm watches ;-) I own the J version of this one (archive pic). PP Ref 2573 ...
very true that!
I like that statement very much, Real men do not need to wear 44mm watches! . My regular rotation consist of a range of 33mm- 40mm watches only.
Yes I sure do ! To be honest while once started my collection I was more into larger watches, I am now more into vintages and I got used to smaller diameters that seemed to me unwearable in the past !
A few examples: IWC Cal. 88 (50’s - 33mm) GP Gyromatic 33mm Corona Diver’s 35mm Zenith Stellina (34mm) ...
A very cool collection You have there!
I couldnt take my eyes off Your zenith, so do the gyromatic GP! .... Totally feel You, how I also started off with gigantic dial watches ...and now I am into thinner, smaller dial watches all the way.
Very nice watches. That's my preferred size range also.
Although I think I need dispensation to go up to 36mm, as some of my favorite watches are that size.
Stunning! and very unique timepiece there!
In my opinion , I think this is just a perfect size, a jack of all trade.
Wow
none of these images would imply under sized. ALL of them look PERFECTLY fitting👌🏻
wonderful collection!
I have my personal touches with the Omegas too. I grew up seeing my Uncles with thier omegas most of the time, saw several vintage models on them.
My smallest watch is 34 mm Tudor advisor.
A pleasure to wear. Since last few years, my taste is gravitating to smaller size, 34- 38 mm. ...
The Alarm function just made me fell for it everytime
as You can see, my Girard is with Alarm too. speaking of Alarm function , the Vulcan and Jager seem to lead the industry.
Yes, a lot of my vintage pieces are small by today's standards.
I wear this one for semi dressy functions. ...
nice watch You have got there!
The mass population might have judged a watch of this size "small" by thier standard. but from now on, the trend are leading towards 35-38mm dial size..
Yes, hopefully the wall clock sized watches are on their
way out. While they may be OK for some, definitely not for me.

Happy to say, this has been my “Dailey Wearer “ lately. 36mm is a big enough watch for me. I love the “Classic” sizes! ...
No quite 35mm and under but plenty at 36mm.
The size would not put me off, I just haven’t gotten there on anything yet.
Not 33 - but 34/35 mm are a sweet spot. Cool alarm :)
Small doesn't mean lacking in character or presence. Cheers JML
A lovely watch indeed, and great size to boot
I am slowly digging the vintage side of watch world
