The official 6.5” wrist club
Having a little fun...started as a joke but may actually be useful...especially for people that are looking for pics of how a watch would look on their wrist...

So this is going to be the official 6.5” wrist thread...

Please put ur wrist pics... and guys or gals only if you are roughly 6.5” lol. I’m a fraction above 6.5” depending on my weight...


So here’s my contribution

Amazing how photography is deceiving.
Your 6.5” wrist, exactly as my 6.5” wrist, same watch, different perspective on size.
Precisely why anyone taking or giving opinions based on photos is so off base.

Your wrist could very well be flatter than me, hence it is "broader" and allow your watch to sit on it better.

Mine could be rounder. I definitely can't wear that 44mm like you do.
