My wrist is 200 mm, about 8 inches and the watch is "only" 39 mm

But it looks & feels absolutely spot on.
On the other hand, I have never understood those oversized watches. My ideal size is 37 - 40.5 mm and 39 mm is pretty close to ideal. This side fits to most of the male wrists while e.g. 41 mm can easily look simply too big on thinner wrists.
Tudor 58 also seems to be pretty close to the correct time.
Best, Kari

In my own personal experience were due to lack of maturity and wisdom in this hobby. In my youth, I remember foolishly only accepting pieces that were 42mm or larger. However, as time went on and I became more educated particularly with vintage watches, I...
In my opinion watches bigger as the wrist

feel and look exactly as good as a jacket having sleeves covering the fingertips and knees. Many people seem to think that a big watch is "masculine". In my eyes an oversized watch makes the wrist look stupidly skinny. But it is a matter of taste and I wi...
