I have a 7.5 inch wrist and some sweet vintage dress watches from the 1960s. I would consider 33mm perfectly wearable at my wrist size as this was a far more common size among vintage men's watches and actually looks very tasteful rather than walking around with something with all the subtly of a kitchen cabinet attached to my wrist.

@@BrittPearceWatches It's a good size on a man's wrist. I have a 34mm Junghans Max Bill with the lovely powder blue dial. The Nomos, like the Junghans, is a watch with a huge amount of dial real estate relative to its size. In appearance I image both watches look visually more like a 36/37mm watch due to the absence of bezel to shrink the dials down.

@@Doggo-frencton I have multiple watches well at or over 42mm including the Squale's 2002 professional diving watch which I am wearing right now and sits comfortably on wrist so your assertion is mistaken. I am aware of my own wrist size, as any watch fan is. This does not negate my opinion that the smaller, mid-30s watches look good on the wrist, sit well and traverse cuff without issue or distortion to clothing.

As a fan of dress watches (especially vintage ones), I quite like this. The Metro and the Orion are some of my favorite Nomos watches. What a brand, in the capital of German watchmaking, an independent company with most of its work done in-house. The movement looks great, too. I may be a male consumer with a medium-sized wrist, but I like small watches, and I agree that there is a lack of such watches in the market today. Also, there is no need to be too concise. Say everything you want to say. The videos are enjoyable and do not feel too long.

It is my first watch with a hand wind movement since my childhood so I have to get used to winding it every day. But the build quality, the laid back approach with the color and the grey / green suede strap are just gorgeous. And of course the possibility to have a look at this great movement is really enjoyable. These colorful Metro look really nice!

That’s cool, well done. I’ve got a friend with larger wrists than mine, which are 7.5”, he collects vintage dress watches, they all wear well and look great on him. I’ve steadily refined my sense of taste, I mean, why collect otherwise? My daily is a Railmaster at 40mm, I consider that a large watch, which it is. Outside of work, I wear an A385 El Primero and a Grand Seiko SBGW269, both 37mm. They wear very well, super comfy, I wouldn’t call them small watches, more like a medium by today’s standard. This Nomos is a small watch, but if you wear it with confidence and dress for it, a lot of people with large wrists will have no issue. These are mostly concerns for social media to fuss over, the real world, less so.
@salty54029 ай бұрын
Good outside the norm sizing, bold and fun colors, and all from a German Brand with a proven/famed in-house movement? What's not to like?!? Big question - how do you feel the Nomos infamous long lugs for this model wears on your wrist? You mention them, but don't think you elaborated your perspective.
@BrittPearceWatches9 ай бұрын
Ahhh ok! Good question Salty! I think the long lugs definitely make it wear larger. Usually 33mm would be a size I'd think is too small for me. I don't really like going under 34mm. But with the lugs and the way they wrap around the wrist - it makes it wear that little bit larger. Even James said he doesn't think it's too small on him! He quite likes the sizing, and credits that a lot to the lugs! :) (But he is also quite happy to wear a smaller watch!)
