Side-by-side comparison of specifications and features
Compare visual case presence and physical footprint on one shared wrist. Measure your top-down wrist width for a stronger result; lug-to-lug is used when the catalog has it.
Medium (6.7″)
Estimated top width: 56.7 mm
Preliminary range: 54.7–61.8 mm.
Watch A
Visual presence

Physical footprint

Proportional guide only: visual presence and physical footprint do not predict comfort. Weight, thickness, caseback shape, rigid lugs, strap stiffness, wrist-bone prominence, wearing tension, bezel design, and case curvature change how a watch actually wears.
