Do you think this lady's watch suits me better?
So here's the story, my parents gave me 15cm or 6'2 inches wrists. So anything I wear will usually look too big on my tiny wrist. However many larger watches seem to fit me at their maximum (you can check my WRUW), maybe because my wrist is flat, I don't know.
I always wanted an overseas, especially the dual time in blue dial, which I have been saving up for and on the waitlist for a long time. My worst fear while waiting was that the dial could be too large. Last week the boutique told me that they have a piece if I want try them on and I was right, the lug2lug is way too big for me.
So my SA brought the lady's version, the 34.5mm automatic, for me to try on. And to my surprise it doesn't look small on my tiny wrist at all. (imagine it without the diamonds and in blue dial).
Growing up with large watches has always been my thing, all watches are big. I know that it is normal for a guy to wear lady's but it is something super new to me specially when you say it's 34.5mm sporty watch out loud. it's quite an expensive watch so I am stuck with this dilemma.
What do you guys think? Does the lady version fits me better? Should I go for the 34.5mm in blue dial or should I skip the overseas and chase something else?
Thanks very much, all comments and advices are much appreciated
Just One More Watch, I Promise.
Looks great 👍
34.5 in blue would be dreamy. Overseas wears larger than stated dims anyway so you'll get that wrist presence.
Vintage watches will look awesome on you.
34 and 35 are good sizes, so I'm not surprised the 34.5mm fits well.
There’s no such thing as a ladies watch if it looks good.
Size looks perfect 👍🏻
Looks great. If it's big enough to see it's big enough IMO.
Size looks great.
The smaller size definitely looks better. I like the aqua terra in 38 but there is something about the design that makes it look feminine, but I guess that is what they wanted.
I wear my dad’s ‘62 Omega Constellation and that’s also 34.5mm and I love it. All that matters is that you have confidence when you wear the watch of your choice. 👍🏼
Smaller looks much better, and is it really 34.5??
It looks huge, and you can easily go even smaller. But this ladies overseas looks dope, size wise. Diamonds are not my thing at all.
Looks like a perfect fit.
Take it diamonds and all lol
In all seriousness, that size suits you perfectly
Yes, it works for you. Don’t get hung up on “ladies” category. Especially not pink with diamonds, it’s a gender neutral size (particularly in your case.). It would just look right on you
If the 34.5mm is more proportionate to your wrist, which it seems to be - then yes go for it. I think the sooner you stop overfocusing on “normal” female versus male sizing and base your decision on your love for the watch itself, the easier the purchasing process might be. In any case, good luck! 🤙❤️
I’m a 6 inch wrist - do pretty close to you
Btw- 15cm is 5.9 inches - so I’m guessing you are a bit more narrow than myself (or bigger if you are 6.2 inches)
I’m quite happy with 36mm and 37mm watches myself
And I routinely rule out watches, even ones I’d love to own, if any lug overhang
I do accept the odd well designed big watch when it’s comfy and snug.
Wearing snug matters since big metal watches on our narrow wrists hurt like crazy with loose steel flying about
I’d say go 34 to 37 as 👌

The "ladies" watch is a better fit. Go for it.
I’ve always loved smaller watches so the 34mm gets my vote but go with whichever you like wearing the most if you enjoy wearing a bigger watch go for it
I have a modest 6.5" wrist that struggles with larger watch cases IMO and both my most recent daily wearers were advertised as 34 and 36mm 'lady' watches - not that there is anything really feminine looks-wise about either of them that I've ever noticed...

And an excellent choice you have made: congratulations. Enjoy the journey, and be sure to post it on here when it finally lands. 🍻
I would even take the bling version as long as it is paired to a more masculine dial

Correct move! I'm sure quite a painful decision after that long wait, but buying a poor fit will end in perpetual regret until it gets sold 👍
