Does size matter ??

This is my vintage Henry sandoz and fils mechanical watch, passed down to me by my great grandfather whom I never ever met, but as special this watch was in my family I have always kept it as a formal "nice" occasion watch, but recently I started to wore it almost daily and got some comments from my friends that its too small for my wrist and at start I did feel it to be small for my wrist but I got used to it,

I want to know what you guys think about it??

Is it odd for giant wrist people to wear such small dressy watch, small wrist people wearing a G-Shock....

What do you guys think about watch and wrist sizes ??

It’s fine because it means something special to you. Doesn’t matter what other people think.

That's perfectly fine size wise. Certainly better than overhanging dinner plates.

Vintage watches are smaller. Styles in the past were different. It good to wear vintage.

If you like wearing it, it must be big enough 👍

That watch looks great on you. Don't sweat it.

I've got almost 8" wrists and I'm not opposed to wearing 36mm (and possibly even smaller). It all depends on the case height and lug to lug.

I usually avoid 36mm watches with a case height of 12mm+ just because it doesn't jive well with an already fat wrist. There needs to be harmony: fat wrist, slim watch.
