Some I got some friends to help me try on some different watches and see how they look on different wrist sizes. Hopefully this will help you get an idea of how a particular watch might look on your wrist. The watches we tried on were:

Thank goodness! Finally! Somebody finally put a video together that shows size of wrist versus size of watch and how they wear. This is a big step in a right direction to finding a comfortable watch. As you mentioned, this is a subjective topic, but a picture says 1000 words. Thanks for taking the time to put this together. Well done!
This is the best video for wrist size comparison and watch compatibility.

I think this is the most useful watch video on KZread. It really helped me sort out my Amazon wishlist!
Got a girly 6 inch wrist, my favourite watches are my 36 mm seamaster and 34 mm Rolex date.

This video is a lifesaver! I have a 7.5 wrist, and sometimes it's hard for me to figure out what size watch to buy. Your video has helped me a LOT! More watch reviewers and sellers should definitely take note of this video and make similar videos, such as this. Thanks again!
Very seldomly do you run into videos that are both informative and useful. You have achieved this, sir. Very well done and thank you!!
Very clear and well thought out! Best video I've found yet on this topic! Thanks!
Dude thank you so much for this video. This covers everything! Thanks again!
Great video! I have a 7" wrist and I like wearing pretty much anything from my grandfather's 33mm vintage watch up to monstrosities of 50+mm. It depends on the watch itself and how it wears. Some watches wear bigger than they actually measure and some smaller. Bottom line is wear what you like!
Amazing video! I feel like you very well resonate with those of us who are new to the hobby. I'm really glad i found this amazing channel.
Great video concept and well illustrated comparisons. I have a 7 inch wrist and love the 38-41mm range. Lug to lug measurement and height dimensions also impact wearability for me, but that 38-41mm range is pretty much always comfortable and proportional looking.
Excellent video!!! Thanks to you I've answered all of my concerns buying my next watch!! Great job!
thanks for the visuals, it helps a lot. exactly the video i was looking for
Man, I'm glad I found this channel. Great videos. I'm just getting into the watch scene and this video is awesome. You channel is perfect for me. I would recommend going to a store also, to try some different stuff on. I was surprised on how some bigger watches fit on my smaller wrist. Keep up the good work.
Excellent video! Exactly what I have been looking for!
This is the best video to determine the right watch size for your wrist. Extremely helpful. Thank you!
One of the most detailed watch size guide on KZread thank you u made u choose my watch
Thanks a lot for the help! I was searching for a video like this to decide whether I should buy a new watch I found online :)
That was actually super helpful. Thanks for the video!
You deserve a million likes for making this comprehensive and extremely helpful video. Thank you so much🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
This is easily the absolute BEST video I've seen for wrist/case size!
Best video out here in KZread land when it comes to watches and wrist size , THANK YOU !
Great video...just what I needed!!
This video is bloody helpful. Just the right info, presented in a very useful maner. Thank you!
Super helpful video. Thanks so much as I have a 6 7/8" wrist and was contemplating the order of a 43 mm chronograph but was worried it would look too large. This helped convince me it would look good but be at the ceiling of sizes I should consider. Love my new watch! Thanks again!
Excellent video. Thank you for putting this together. I have a 7" wrist and enjoy wearing between 40-42mm.
UNDERRATED VIDEO!! Very useful info thank you!
great great video for beginner to choose the right watch size! nice and clear comparison with different sizes of watch and wrist
Great video! Really helped me a lot!
Great subject for a video..first I’ve seen on this topic.
This video helped me out a ton. Thank you.
Thank you so much. I'm about to buy my first watch and was looking for something like this.
Great video and extremely helpful for folks that buy watches online and not in physical shops. Another big factors are lug to lug distance, the size of dial (thick bezels make the watch seem smaller, that's why the 50mm watch you have on the video seem smaller), the case thickness, and last but not least the watch strap (thick nato straps with rings make a small watch seem bigger, or slim metal bracelets like shark sesh make the watch seem smaller). Keep it up :)
thank you this video def helped me pick out a watch!
Thanks a lot. I just ordered my first watch. And I was kind of panicking but now I’m good thanks to you
this is EXACTLY EXACTLY what i was looking for! thank you sir! 😊
A rare video comparing and suggesting watches for various wrist sizes. Excellently made video with actual demonstration. Kudos.👍👍👍

Case sizes to wrist sizes can be trivial when you account lug to lug tip measurement. Some small case size have lug to lug measurements that extend, some large case size have lug to lug measurements that are short or angled etc. You may have a fairly case sized watch but if the lugs are long and extend out on the edges of your wrist or on the verge of, then it will look large or inappropriate.

Yes, lug to lug is more important. I have 43mm watches that look better on my wrist than a few of my 40 mm due to the lugs on my 6.75" wrist.

Great vid.. Since I buy my watches online this is very useful to know. Thanks!
Good reference. I learned something. Thank you!
I am just getting into watches and this helped so much. Thank you
Flat vs round wrists is a factor also. Think of it, the same watch will look drastically different on a short guy with a 7" round wrist vs a tall guy with 7" flat wrist.

uh yea , im 5'9 1/4 idk if thats short or avg whatever my wrists are 6.85" and kinda round from the side they look big from front small diagnally they look okay, and i go for 41 mm watches all time im 17 btw idk if my wrists are going to get thicker or not .
Great comparison, thank you!
Great video! Much needed. Thanks
Fantastic video! Clear and concise.
Superb video on this topic. 👌❤
Great comparison! Thank you!
Helped my while watch buying, thanks.

Helpful video! Thanks!
Excellent video. Wery helpful. Thx
Thank you for this video
Very helpful thanks
Awesome video, thank you. I wish I had found this video earlier. I have a 7.5” wrist and recently bought a 45mm Bulova Marine Master on sale. I was looking for an affordable alternative to the Omega Speedmaster but surprised at how large the Bulova looked on my wrist. Like you said, it is entirely subjective, and also dependent on the design of the watch. Thanks again for a very useful video.
Great video. Thanks!
Great video - this conversation also requires the lug to lug measurement, thats the most important aspect when checking a watch and how it fits. Thanks for the content.

i disagree. dial size is the most important. a watch that has a large dial, almost no bezel, i can get away with 46mm. a watch with a larger bezel i need 48mm to 50mm. the lug to lug doesn't really effect how big the watch looks on your wrist.
This video is very helpful
A handy general guide to choosing a watch for your wrist size - thanks.
Very helpful!
Thanks a lot....this really helped
*Was really helpful !*
GREAT VIDEO! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Awesome video Sir. Thank you.
Doing Gods work here, man. Thnx
Thanks a lot I have been having a lot of debate on if a 42 mm watch would looks to big on me I have the same size wrist as you and this helped my decision thanks
I’m a 7 and I float between 39-42, the only exception being one of my company anniversary watches with my name and years of service engraved on the back, which is 37mm. Also, I love the subtle Ecclesiastes background in some of those shots. Way to slip it in there. 🙏🏼
Perfect video, thank you!
Very very helpful. Thank You
thanks for this video
Just the watch.....this is exactly the type of video I was looking for. Want to buy active 2 watch and not sure to buy 40 or 44mm. Thanks for the great video. Haven't even watched the video before I complimented but just the face that someone who think to put a video like this out there is awesome. And u have three people (a female wrist) included also. You're a genius.

Its so useful tnx for thath
Great video Dave. Its really good information to compare even before you go out shopping. So optically, the best ratio of wrist to watch size is 0.240. Using mm dimensions, ex. 6.6”x 24.5=161.7mm wrist size. Watch size 38.8mm / 161.7mm= 0.240. So for me at 7” wrist size, 41mm would look right.

I have to thank you for this. The most recent watch I have is 47mm and to ME it didn’t look right, looking to small. According to your method I would need a 50mm watch for my 8.5” wrist. I give you a gold star Doctor!!
Great video! The lug length is important too.
Great video! It seems pretty rare to find this kind of videos.. I'm happy I found this one.
I'd suggest the biggest factor on how big a watch will look on your wrist is the size of the dial. For example, the 42mm Nighthawk looks bigger on the 6.6" wrist than the 45mm Aragon. Sure, the Aragon is a thicker watch which makes it look a bit bulkier but keeping case thickness equal the size of dial will almost always determine the 'wear' size of a watch (as long as the lugs don't extrude out the side of your wrist of course). I have a 7 inch wrist and wear from a 38mm Mido all-dial, to a 46mm Glycine Combat Sub GMT and I actually have a 42mm Hamilton Intra-matic dress watch which wears noticeably larger on my wrist than the 46mm Glycine.... my conclusion is that dress watch should be 6-8mm smaller than a rotating bezel style watch to wear equivalent. Having said that, each their own I say... if you have a 6 inch wrist and want to wear a 48mm dress watch or have an 8 inch wrist and really love a smaller 36mm unisex dive watch go ahead and forget what anyone else says, there are no rules to abide by... imagine if someone told you you shouldn't wear you hair the length you like it because you are too short or fat or light or dark.
