Here Are 7 PERFECT Watches For SMALL WRISTS | Jenni Elle

[@Villanelle007]

As a girl who loves watches, it's so refreshing to come across a KZbin channel about watches by a woman blogger. I like your tastes and think your videos are great! Keep up the great work.

[@Slip.Angull]

I'd instantly pull the trigger on the El Primero if only I had that much el dinero

[@kamehamehajim]

For smaller wrists and larger pockets I guess...

[@MsSaugusta]

Exactly.

[@henryhartley9993]

Well said, what planet are these people on....

[@marcd7332]

To be fair the title doesn’t say “best cheap watches”

[@Boros777]

What are you on about? This is very reasonable for luxury watches, the Zenith, Tudor, Nomos and IWC are a steal in the luxury watch world!

[@MicheleBohmke]

Small wrists help you reach deeper into those large pockets. 🤣

Hi Jenni! Firstly, I would like to say that it is AMAZING to finally find a female host for a watch/horology enthusiast channel. I am a female watch enthusiast and have loved watches since I was young. To put it into perspectice, I am totally fine to not have any piece of jewellery on me but I wouldn't ever be able to leave the house without a watch(yes, I don't personally consider watches 'just' a piece of jewellry because to me it's a lot more). To reiterate this even more, I would not even glance at a 24K diamond but I would definitely spend hours admiring watches-any kind and any brand that I find interesting(and of course buy them when I get impulsive!) Secondly, having said that, it has been a struggle for me to be into this world of loving watches because I feel that this love is so gender segregated. For instance, I would come to a store and they would immediately direct me to ladies watches but I honestly find the mens watches more appealing because I feel that watch makers put a lot of effort and thought to mens watches and then eventually loosely produce feminine looking ones for the "ladies". (Honestly they should just make unisex ones! Enough of the "for mens, for womens" BS. It's 2020!) And as I slowly grow my knowledge for horology, I feel more and more out of place because everything seems to be almost solely for "The Gentlemen". You can imagine how I feel being a woman and is actually really interested and genuinely enjoys looking at, wearing and even deciphering watches(like what is a better callibre movement, what complications does it have, what is the movement, case size, what does it contain in its dial, is it sapphire cyrstal or hardlex, how many jewels does it have, etc... I could go on!) but seem to only be catered, accepted and normalise to men. Arrggg.. Sorry to blabber. Thirdly, I just really want to express how happy I am to find a female host sharing love for watches! That is my main point! Lastly, I noticed that you have been mostly featuring the high end luxury watches. Do you consider featuring mid to low budget watches but are really valuable and have been able to prove valuable too like Seiko, Citizen, Longines, Tissot, Hamilton, Rado... (there's a lot of them)... It's just because I can only be able to dream about these Omegas and Rolexes but might never be able to afford them. So it would be nice to see watches that I know are within the reach of a person such as myself who always have to consider a budget but would like to have great value and craftmanship as well. Anyhow. Thank you for starting this channel! I hope to see it grow! And I have definitely subscribed!

I also have a 150mm wrist and love my Zenith A384 reissue which comes in at 37mm. It wears much smaller than the A386. Shape isn’t for everyone though.

[@didleydee4218]

Lug to Lug is definitely more important than width for small wrists. It's annoying how hard it is to find it on many manufacturers websites. Thank God for reviewers like yourself.

[@p.j.mendes]

It is always good ( and rare)to find videos with such content. I have a small wrist and sometimes feel forgotten buy watch reviewers...great job, Jenny! Greetings from Brazil!

[@timehill556]

Great reviews, Ms. Elle, on a subject (watches for small wrists) about which discussion is much needed. I wish the itty bitty wrist committee would meet and petition the watch manufacturers to provide a small strap option at the time of purchase. Some do, but a lot of them do not. A greater variety of smaller straps from the strap companies would be nice also. Thank you for these reviews.

[@wimdepril6920]

This the second time I see that Zenith appearing in one of your videos and it’s becoming more and more clear in my mind that I need to go and try it on in person. Thank you for your insights, Jenny! Viele Grüssen aus Belgien, Wim

[@Arthur.A.B.]

Just watched the full video, but must admit that splitting the list in the video timer was so thoughtful that I wish every channel would do it too.

[@kanemillard3315]

i like the iwc spitfire but it baffles me why they went for a 50mm lug to lug on 39mm watch.

[@drdoom06]

Kane Millard what baffles me even more is the price of said watch. It is sharp but for that price it needs something more...

[@aslamc9288]

Marco Antonio It’s way too expensive for what you get, I agree. And the lug to lug is baffling as well. And that date window really looks off and ruins the flow of the dial. If they did a no-date version at around 3 grand, then we’d be talking. But as it stands, it feels like a terrible value.

[@kanemillard3315]

@Tom The Fish if that's the case why not just make the case and dial bigger.

[@Diepvries11]

Yeah, I don't know why it's featured in this video. Looks absolutely shite on a small wrist.

[@wengjai]

[@RealFeelsTrip]

Love the El Primero. What a beautiful chronograph!

[@Peter-rq4xn]

Thanks Jenni! I love your presentation of each watch! Clear and to-the-point! Keep up the great work!

[@MariniteLG]

I want to thank you for this video. I wound up getting an Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra and LOVE it.

[@ZenithKappa]

First of all, compliments for segmenting the video! You're the first watch channel to do so and it's a very welcome choice. I'm a male but I have a small (165mm) wrist; for my taste, 34 to 36mm cases look best for wrists under 170mm. I like a lot the Oyster Perpetual 34mm in green: no date (i hate the cyclops lens), same caliber as the bigger cases, uncommon color, discreet watch.

[@enriquesaez1996]

Also in white grape.

[@SurgingApocalypse]

Same here but I still wear a 42mm😂

[@JB-ou6fl]

I would add Omega's Speedmaster Reduced to your list. It will also be interesting to see the watches for small wrists at a lower price point in a follow-up video.

[@laurenceharrison661]

36 is the way to go and I do believe watch manufacturers are thinking this now. No more silly sizes. All of us have pretty small wrists ! (Mine is 7.25 and my BB36 looks perfect). Great vid. Thank you

[@simonmiles1972]

Great video. Worth saying you don't have to have very small wrists to appreciate smaller watches. My wrist is 7ins, which is about average for a man, and I can wear up to about 43mm no problem. But smaller, sub-40mm watches are just so much more elegant and refined. It's the differences between a watch being a statement piece or an accessory, something bold and defining or something subtle and understated. I know which I prefer.

[@mathiashls]

Totally not watch related but your video quality is over the top, I really wish I knew how to achieve that 😱 By the way, great video, my little skinny wrists say thanks!

[@kingjgregory]

Ha, apparently me plus 20 or so others.........nah I don’t need a video by someone I’ve never met or even heard of until now, to tell me the Omega Aqua Terra is a very nice watch.

[@matthewhill3996]

I didn’t mean that as a slight toward Elle. I liked the video a lot. And plan on watching more of them in the future. The AT needs no reassurance tho

[@matthewhill3996]

The aqua terra isn’t even in the video title....I came here for the same reason u did. A watch I wasn’t expecting to see appeared in it. So I commented. W/ all due respect, it’s early where I live. Have a good day

Love the Zenith and the Omega. Very useful, thank you!

[@sabaruengineering3843]

Omega Seamaster 300 "The 1957 Trilogy" (39 mm), Grand Seiko "Heritage" SBGA285 (39 mm), and Rado Captain Cook (37 mm) 😍

[@Jay-xr3sb]

The omega is really thick, and the GS tends to be quite thick and doesnt sot on the wrist that well. If GS slim down and make their watches more ergonomic I would be on it

[@verveblack]

awesome of you to show wrist measurements comparison in the video. very smart & useful. but do a complete top view & side view shot so we can clearly see where the lugs sit.

[@Youcantleavethisempty01]

A 40mm watch was mentioned but no 34mm watches? Hmmmm ... *confusion sets in*

Good job Jenni! That zenith el primero is beautiful!

[@scottbertelson352]

Thank you for featuring the 36mm Tudor and 36mm DJ. Both great models that are very popular entries into the Swiss watch mainstream, and both look good on these wrist sizes.

[@rodsalvador3608]

For those of us with more modest means, one can't go wrong with the Speedy reduced! Considering the DJ or AT next. Great video, thanks!

Jenni, I like all your videos. you made me laugh and smile when you are giving a description, it's almost like someone Is making you laugh from behind the scenes. Great work.

[@raytsh]

I agree with the lug width being more important than the diameter most of the time. I have a 16.5mm wrist and my Tangente 35mm already looks kinda too large due to the 44mm lug width.

[@EggsOverCheesy]

7.25 inch wrist, but wearing a 36mnvTudor 1926. Sometimes smaller just makes sense and compliments the watch style.

[@davidb9531]

Shame we didn't look at some value options on this list, the Hamilton Khaki Pilot Pioneer is a wonderful little watch

[@jorgklatt396]

Great choices 👍🏼 I would add the Tudor BB58 and my choice to decorate my tooth pick sized wrists: the Planet Ocean 39.5

[@htjung]

Hi Jenni, I'm a big fan of your channel. Thank you for sharing great videos.

[@davidjames2235]

For me a 36mm datejust fits fine on a smaller male wrist size. When I put on a 41mm it looked way to big. Great videos big fan. Cheers David

[@wnylibrarian]

Good suggestions. I only would have added the Omega Railmaster heritage reissue. I believe it's approximately 38mm and would be a nice fit. 👍

[@sadaka201]

Nice video. The small El Primero is the best looking watch here by far...

[@steveroberts619]

Greetings from Virginia, USA. I really enjoy your videos and thanks for the metric conversion (I saw where y'all were talking about it down below) . I have a 7" wrist and I own a couple of vintage pieces that are 36mm and 38mm. I think they wear just fine. Thanks for the cool videos and keep up the great work.

Saving for a 36mm white dial Rolex OP and enjoying 38mm Aqua Terra from 2003... May get that Daytona as a daily beater though 😅. Thanks for another decent vid 👍

[@SultanAbdulRehman]

Well presented video, with a selection of interesting watches, Jenni! I totally agree with your last two points! Lugs, does makes a massive difference in overall size of the watch, on how it will look on your wrist, and that if possible - try the watch on your wrist before you buy it. At times you'll be surprised on how a fairly large watch (40mm, for the itty bitty wrist committee members ) would sit well on the wrist without looking out of place.

[@dharminnaik5473]

I got myself a Zenith a384 revival a few months back and MY GOD! It is THE MOST PERFECTLY FITTING WATCH FOR MY SMALLER WRISTS!!! I am currently trying to get used to my YM37 but it is feeling a little smaller on the dial size… May be trying a Bathyscaphe 38 to see if that proves any better…

The spitfire has a 32110 Calibre based on ETA 2892-A2, not 35111. That caliber is in Pilot Mark XVIII

[@kofiofosu9051]

I have a 175 mm wrist and wear a 36 mm watch. Refreshing to see modestly sized watches reviewed.

[@1061shrink1061]

smaller wrist here, circa 175mm. I have however, found that it's surprising what you can get away with. I've had good success with larger watches up as high as 42mm depending on the type of strap. Bracelets look better on smaller wrists, because of the way they are forced to curve around the wrist. Leather (because it tends to go vertical if the watch is too large) looks worse. That said, on my 175mm wrists, i found that Longines Hydroconquest Dive (41mm on steel bracelet) Looks excellent. Doesnt overhang, sits nicely and hugs the wrist more than you'd think. Longines Master Moonphase (god bless Longines for offering this in both 40mm and 42mm) I bought the 40mm and it looks fantastic on its alligator strap. JLC reverso classic medium duoface. A great small wrist watch.

[@shelleyinthecity]

Cheaper but still high quality watch options for smaller wrists: Hamilton Khaki 38 mm with black dial Seiko Sarb 033 (black dial) and Sarb 035 (white dial) at 38.4 mm Orient Star Classic Automatic Dress Watch 38.5 mm Hamilton Jazzmaster Viewmatic 37 mm

[@MrFinally24]

shelleyinthecity i beg to differ. Sarb033 is not comparable quality-wise to the watches shown

[@Yanimalyan]

Even cheaper cool looking quartz Timex Navi Ocean 38mm

[@chinwengkeong]

Nice... thanks for this. I'm always hungry for small wrist watch videos. Some to add to the list... Sinn 556 series, all the Baltic models, Tudor BB58, many Seikos (short lugs and hugging case designs), several of the Cartier Santos variants.

[@markn3586]

I think the Lange Saxonia Thin 37mm and the Grand Seiko SBGW231 at 37mm deserve to make the list.

[@fekihmdyoussef7215]

Nice video but actually the iwc spitfire does have an in house movement: it's the new IWC cal. 32110.

[@daveb4679]

Point of information - the 32110 is built by ValFleurier not IWC and it’s architecture is based upon the ETA 2892. I suppose IWC can claim “in-house” as they’re both Richemont group but still it’s mainly marketing. Same trick as the IWC cal.30110 (ETA 2892 and later Sellita SW300). As to how much involvement IWC has in assembly is up for debate. Most information is that, pre-2011, IWC did some their own assembling / decoration / modification of purchased ETA stock. Since 2011 they’re largely purchased complete movements. But overall cal.30110 a downgrade of involvement compared to cal.37524 found in the Mark XV (in itself was still a 2892). Nothing wrong with a 2892. I own a few IWCs with such movements. But I can’t stand their marketing ploys.

For those looking for some more economic choices, you can still get the Seiko SARBs 033 or 035 for under 500.00. They are quality watches and sized in 38mm. Also very versatile, can be used as everyday or even dress if you change the straps. Good look, they are disappearing fast.

I just recently discovered your channel and am enjoying your content. My wrist is 6.5inches though and I find anything above a 45mm lug to lug to be too disproportionally large for my wrist. if you get a chance, review the 36mm Longines Legend Diver. It's awesome for smaller wrists.

[@kevinwagner9934]

Well done Jenni! Your presentation is always so insightful and interesting.

[@vmarsch]

I have a 170mm wrist, and some of these watches are too big for me. Anything over 46mm lug-to-lug is pushing it for me. 50mm on the IWC just doesn't look good. The 44mm lug-to-lug Tudor and Rolex are the best, in my opinion. I have an Oyster Perpetual in that size, and I think it's perfect for me.

[@BrittanyBallantyne]

I totally agree about the IWC. It is way too big on her wrist IMO!

For years I've been telling my AD I have small wrist disease and they should sell me a Daytona ... still nothing 😔

Longines conquest or hydroconquest: available in 29.5mm and 34mm. They cost between 700 and 1200€. The quartz versions are priced around 400€. Or how about the Tissot powermatic 80 (38 mm). Much friendlier prices also.

[@jackkairos4726]

I’m surprised you didn’t include the Tudor Black Bay 58. Also, I would add the Rolex Yachtmaster. It has the same case as the Daytona and wears great on a smaller wrist.
