Normally when people think of man watches they think of large stuff. Even some Bauhaus ones despite thin are rather large, thinking of Junghans for example.

But if like me your wrist is more on the small side, I think smaller watches definitely look better. Stuff like Vintage Omega, Longines be it new or vintage, Timex or any brands that can deliver smaller sizes.

With this being said I have to admit sometimes I’ve considered wearing “women’s” watches precisely due to this. Is that acceptable?

Concluding all this I’d just like to say I obviously hate Diesel watches

    I have six and a quarter inch wrists. I tend to favor 36-39mm watches with excptions on either side. As with anything you wear i think it is about understanding what you like and what attributes you have and wearing things to highlight your best qualities. I have at times worn vintage or modern womens watches because the size is a better fit. But smaller is not always better. If a company just shrinks a larger watch often the proportions of the case and the dial look odd. Out and about, It is nice to see when people wear watches that fit them, their attire and their personality. But going beyond that is a fool’s errand.
