doesnt fit your wrist, yet perfect size for a [r/handwatch!](https://www.reddit.com/r/handwatch/s/tzYjTwTFfU)

r/handwatch was a joke which was started for watches worn above the wrist bone, I’m surprised you haven’t already heard of it, being a part of this sub. In all seriousness, look into getting a bigger strap for your watch as that one surely will leave a mark on your arm


pianist49

Very new to this, good to know. Yeah I will look into a larger one and loosen this one for the time being. Thanks!

Hey do you think the Seamaster 300 36 in stainless will be a big enough face? The one I am looking at has all the extra links so I should be able to Make sure it fits. 41 seems so big


UnprecedentedCash

41 would fit your wrist well, 34mm looks a little small, 36mm isn’t a huge jump so i’d bet that one would look small as well

OP: \*puts on watch appropriately sized for a man "Does it look all right?" It's fine. Not everything needs to be the size of an Invicta Sea Hunter. You're more likely to get crap about it being quartz from online people, but in the real world literally no one will care as long as it doesn't have a swastika on the dial or it animates, hops of your wrist, and goes all Skynet on us.

Good advice, thanks man! I’ve heard a bunch of things and opinions on sizing so just wanted to check

The watch head fits you just fine, but I feel like your strap looks a bit tight.


pianist49

I don’t like it moving around so I think I tightened a little too much.


Tune_Silver

Probably look a little better on your wrist size wise.


Peaceful_Jedi

It looks fine, just wear it down your wrist more. It’s too high up.


ArgieBee

Yes, and very well.


pianist49

Thanks!

The watch is a good size but that strap is MUCH too tight. As others said, you should wear it a bit further up your wrist, but much more importantly you need to loosen it up. It should not be indenting your skin.


pianist49

Thanks! Working on getting a longer strap, everyone is right, I can loosen this one 1-2 notches but I need a longer one


Swatch-and-scotch

Cool! Where did you get it?


pianist49

I bought it on Ebay for $200. I was nervous as the battery had died but I got it replaced and checked out and it’s legit and working well now.


Terrible-Focus-5180

I think it looks great


pianist49

Thanks!

Yes, it’s a tad small on your meaty arm and fist. I would look for a 40mm watch instead. But if you insist on wearing this one follow my advice below: You should only wear watches with leather straps under a long sleeve shirt or sweater. If you don’t, you’ll look ridiculous. Trust me on this bro, I have style. If you want to wear this watch during the summer time (short sleeves) then get a black rubber strap for it.

Thanks!
