[Discussion] Does anyone else simply hate the so called "oversized" watches on small wrists? (alien.top)

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

larger divers can definitely work on smaller wrists. i wear a 45mm Seiko Turtle on my 16cm/6.25 inch wrist all the time. it's short 47mm lug to lug make it work just fine.

theres definitely alot more to wearing dimensions than sheer diameter.
