Black dial…. Yes
Polar ….. Barely yes

Based on my own sizing preferences and flat 7 inch wrist.
Polar wears much bigger IMo….. love the tweaks to the black dial ExpII

No reason to even ask. No problem.

ccman1707 · 7 August 2021, 03:53 AM

Looks great!

Skyrider01 · 7 August 2021, 04:50 AM

No problem! My wrist is 6.9” and it fits fine. And I have the white dial which tends to look larger than the black one.

Absolutely! But I wonder why so many people said No. That’s weird. It’s a beauty.

ks58 · 7 August 2021, 05:04 AM

Alright. I figured out the poll results problem. You asked a question in the title which I said Yes to. Then you said a different question for the actual poll, which I should have said No to. Confusing.

Yes, I had to do a double take before answering.

The poll should overwhelmingly state that it’ll be perfect on you.

I have a 6.5in wrist and prefer smaller watches. With that said, I pull off a modern ExII in black pretty well. The case wears thin and makes it wear pretty well.

No doubt your wrist could pull it off. Go for it!

Some people complain that the Exp II should have had a TripLok crown. I think the TwinLok is just the right size otherwise it would have looked like a Panerai.

To me, that watch is too big, BUT to him it is perfect. Life is short, buy what you want and wear the heck out of it.

DJ2020 · 7 August 2021, 11:24 AM

I voted yes, but my official answer is most likely. I have the same size wrist OP. The DJ2 I owned didn't quite sit right due to the long lug length, the solid end links stood out a bit and the fact the lugs are not turned down enough.
I now wear a Omega SMP 300m which is 42mm but short lugs which are turned down and the bracelet does not extend beyond the lugs. Absolutely the most comfortable watch I have ever owned. If your 7 - 7 1/8 wrist is flat, you will probably be fine. It is a nice watch!

As far as I know, it’s always had a twinloc. I don’t see the need for anything more. Doesn’t keep me from swimming in the ocean with it.

I was talking about physical appearance on the wrist.

You’re right, my bad. I agree with you. It’s nice the way it is.

You all have really helped set my mind at ease. it sounds like it’ll fit well on me and the fact that I really dig this watch means even if it was a hair too big it wouldn’t matter :)

Slimpee · 8 August 2021, 12:38 AM

If you just bought the watch and wore it, absolutely!

But if you have to ask…

Roddypeepa · 8 August 2021, 03:08 AM

If you can pull off a seamaster you definitely can.
