Proposal: WRUW to include wrist size?

I was wondering whether we could do a slight change in the WRUW thread?

I love that thread to see watches in the wild but it would be even more useful at least for me if we could include the wrist size of the crunchers so that one can get a feel how a particular watch would look like on one’s wrist.

what do you guys and gals think?

It is widely known that the perfectly sized wrist is 6.75 inches. It is usually written as PSW. Every deviation of .25 inches is given a value of +/- 1. So, a 7 inch wrist would be PSW +1, and 8 inch wrist would be PSW +5, 6.5 would be PSW -1, and so on.

I hope this helps.

Not sure what @Aurelian said but I like the idea of adding in the wrist size to WRUW.  That section is my favorite part of WatchCrunch for sure.

I also love that section ^^
it gives me always some nice impulses on what I might want to have in the future :)

Hi thanks for the comment. 
also not quite sure what the correlation above means but will research on Google. 
 

I meant rather whether it would be possible for everyone to post the wruw shots with a short comment of wrist size (see below)

I like to say that I have a Perfectly Sized Wrist (as if there is any other kind). Since mine is perfect we just note deviations away from perfection.  You are PSW +5, nothing to be ashamed about.

(It was really just a joke to amuse myself, and anyone who followed along.)

If I remember, I will. 

I will draw the line at sharing blood type though 😉😂

I’ve never measured my wrist size.  According to the @Aurelian metric, I would probably be so far in the negative you guys will start sending me food supplements 😂

Edit: I guess now is a better time than any, let me find a string or measuring tape. 
 

Results: 6 inches on the dot, 15.2cm for our metric friends. Not as small as I thought!  Oh the jokes I could make here, but I will refrain.

@Nobody.Tokyo @Aurelian @WatchCrunch 

Woke up this morning with the thought that wrist size should go on the profile.  Since the profile is accessible from every post and comment it makes a lot of sense to put it there.  Oh, Greg's formula can go there as well.
