5164a for small wrists?
Hi.
I’m thinking of getting the 64a sometime this year. How does it wear on smaller wrists? My wrists are about 6 1/3 inches. For some background info, I can wear the SubC and 5711 comfortably. Some wrist shots would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

If you can pull off the subc, the 5164 is no problem. Much lower profile. I am a 6.5” and have both.

One thing is that you can only make the band so small as the double deployent clasp requires a minimum extension and otherwise will loose on the bottom of your wrist.

Should be no problem. I wear a 5167 on my 6.5” wrist. I tend to like my strap a little on the loose side and I’ve got plenty of notches left if I ever wanted to go smaller. To me the lug to lug distance is key.

Small wrist here. 16,8cm. I think the 5164 fits nicely.

I’m 6.5 and it works, maybe a tiny large for my liking. If you are 6.25 I’m stating the obvious that 5167 will be better

I know the 67 would be the better option for my wrists. But that symmetrical dial on the 64a is really something else. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

It's perfect on my 6.5". One of the best sized and most comfortable watches ever. And pure class.
