Pro Tips for Choosing the Right Size
Measure Your Wrist
Use a flexible measuring tape or string around your wrist bone. Add 0.5-1 inch for comfort.
Consider Your Lifestyle
Active lifestyles suit larger, more durable watches. Office work pairs well with classic, smaller sizes.
Lug-to-Lug Distance
The watch lugs shouldn't extend beyond your wrist. This is often more important than case diameter.
Personal Preference
Some prefer the bold look of oversized watches, while others favor understated elegance.
Try to buy on trusted websites
WATCHES BARN is new but we get watches directly from the brand and we check each and every watch before shipping, so there are zero chances of you getting a fake one.
Band Width Matters
Wider bands make watches appear larger. Consider the overall proportions, not just case size.
