Normally when people think of man watches they think of large stuff. Even some Bauhaus ones despite thin are rather large, thinking of Junghans for example.

But if like me your wrist is more on the small side, I think smaller watches definitely look better. Stuff like Vintage Omega, Longines be it new or vintage, Timex or any brands that can deliver smaller sizes.

With this being said I have to admit sometimes I’ve considered wearing “women’s” watches precisely due to this. Is that acceptable?

Concluding all this I’d just like to say I obviously hate Diesel watches

    As with anything, wearing a watch comes with some unwritten rules and advices.

    I like to compare it with clothes. Sure you could go everywhere in your pyjamas. But you mostly don’t because clothing in society comes with some rules.

    You may break them, and more power to you if you do and if you’re feeling better that way. No one has a right to tell you otherwise because ultimately we’re talking about things that don’t really matter.

    But that doesn’t mean those rules and advices should be disregarded, especially if you’re starting to learn about a hobby.

    Yes, if you have a small wrist, you might want to wear smaller watches. That’s the advice, and a good one because it will most likely suit you better.

    As the saying goes, you don’t break rules before understanding them.
