Proud 6.5" member here!

No longer own this watch (gave it to my Dad), but wanted to show the largest watch that I've owned...we 6.5ers can wear anything

6.5” for me, too. Surprisingly, the 44mm Seiko Marinemaster 300 is super comfortable on the wrist. The Certina DS PH200m was just a tad long in the lugs with a bit of overhang.

The official 6.5” wrist club

Great idea! Here is my collection on my 6.5” wrist...

Patek 5990



Royal Oak 15450



Royal Oak 15450



Royal Oak Diver



Rolex Daytona



Rolex GMT 126710



Rolex Sea Dweller 116600



JLC Reverso GMT



Omega Speedmaster Reduced



TAG Microtimer



Casio G-Shock



Would welcome thoughts about which work best for my wrist, which don’t work for my wrist, and which ones surprised you in terms of fit.

See a bunch of you guys have Daytonas also.. curious as to what your link setup is like right now I’m 5/4.. can’t seem to get that perfect fit like I have on my SubC at 4/4. Glidelock does make a big difference though

Obviously something wrong with you people with only a 6.5 wrist but I will say all the watches look damn nice, and nothing to be ashamed of.

I think it's very healthy you came out of the closet and this support thread will help you a lot in the future.

But it may ruin my new invention of Wrist Falsies that I was planning on introducing in 2020 to give you poor guys a boost up to 7 1/4.

I'll send you the link via PM if your are still are feeling shall we say "underdeveloped".

Nice wrist shots. May I ask how the BV Octo Finissimo felt on your wrist? I am looking to add the steel version but didn’t have a chance to try one on yet. Thanks!

Felt great. It’s a very light watch. The reason I never bought one was because the design is too edgy for me. The thinness is great. But the bracelet and the case is wider so has more presence from that perspective.


To be honest if I was to buy a Bulgari. I’d look for the octo skip hour movement one. That’s a cool watch

The design is indeed very avant-garde. I will definitely check out the skip hour movement that you mentioned. Thanks a lot.

Wrist shaming!

What I don’t get, is how the heck even my back gets fat before my wrists do! Ffs! I’m gonna have to be 250lbs before i can wear a mans watch with pride!
