I have a 6 inch wrist, that's the trick. :D
And I think the watch looks bigger with this wider strap.
Both are new Casio straps. The Alba's original strap was so bad that I needed to change to a new one.
Here are two German and two Swiss from my collection:
ZentRa Modell Cornett (1960s)
Gub Glashütte SA (late 1950s)
Roamer Elegant (1970s)
Certina (1960s)
Nothing interesting, I bought it with three other cheap plastic quartz watches (30 USD for all, one Alba is still in service for cleaning). These are my "playing watches" when I visit my friends who's go small children.
I bought it in a local store, but as I see there is the same case on AliExpress.
