6119R on wrist - too small?

Hi everyone! I’m new to Patek and dress watches entirely and would love some help on whether this piece ‘fits’ my wrist. And before you say, ‘it’s all a matter of personal taste’, I understand that but would just like to get some thoughts.
Thank you!

Thanks for the responses! I got to try it on at the Patek boutique in Paris recently — wasn’t readily available but it was nice to still get to try on.

Yep looks perfect, definitely not too small. The 6119r comes at 39mm which is already on the larger size for a dress piece (and compared to the previous Calatrava). 6119r is amazing - hobnail bezel and new movement that fills out that exhibition case back.

Looks like your wrist is 7.5” - 8”? Yea again, definitely not too small.

2001jesper - I absolutely love it! Never thought I’d be a dress watch kind of guy but this watch really does it for me. The sales associate was really kind and made me feel welcomed which matters to me when making a big purchase like this.

Have any of you all bought or considered this piece? Total beginner here but eager to learn from you all.

I think it looks pretty great. Makes me extra weary though about it on a smaller wrist like mine around 6.5".

Perfect fit. Thin bezel with larger dial makes it wear bigger on the wrist.

Looks great. That's the best looking Calatrava ever, imo.

Looks great. Don't forget it's a dress watch. It's okay to be smaller.
