To any of you who are over the fence, I encourage you to give it a try. You will not regret it. At the office, since I work for an official health program. BTW I disinfect my watch frequently, since it may be a fomite. We also wear surgical masks, googles...  

Smaller watches always seem to look nice on other's.........

It is an axiom of watch collecting

Watches always seem to look better on the other. One day I had a mini GTG with other purist friend and we exchanged watches. I lent him my Seiko 6109-8110 captain Willard and he lent me his beautiful Breguet Type XX. We were laughing because we couldn’t t...

Dear Art, you are a real expert at wearing “small” watches

But full of charisma! Beautiful Omega 👍🏼 Wear it in good health. René

And yours are exquisite mon ami!

But then they are not small anymore. More like medium or standard. And it’s okay! There’s much joy in diversity. Best. René

I have a few vintage in the 32-33 mm range that I like very much.

I've found that when trying a smaller watch on for the first time it often looks too small. So I go look at it on my wrist in a mirror to see it as others will see it on me. I'm usually surprised that from this perspective they don't look too small at.

Yes, the best part is...

Te more you wear them, the more you get used and enjoy them! Best. René

Yes, that works pretty much!

Also, when watching movies, I have noticed that many well dressed men wear “small” watches and they look perfect. Or almost. Thanks for your comment. Best. René

Very nice...

But much too small for my 18,7 cm wrist, I need 38 mm to 42 mm. Best, -- Richard.

Well that's very understandable

Even though I have seen big guys wearing small watches and they look manly and elegant still. For you, maybe we would up the bar to 35-37? Just imagine all those rough guys (maybe our own grandpas) at the middle of the last century, and what did they wear...
