Thank you, I would say the if your wrist is under 6.6", you will definitely need a XS strap. I prefer to wear my watches on the tighter side, but it would work on a 6.5" wrist if you prefer a looser fit on the rep strap. It definitely wears larger than a 44mm Luminor PAM or a 45mm Rad. The lug to lug length is a lot bigger than a typical 42mm watch. To me, I feel like this wears slightly bigger than the 47mm PAM372.

Whats the lug to lug length if you don't mind?

I believe it's 55mm (the PAM372 is 57mm but looks smaller overall in my opinion)


57mm? Like this?

It's a 47mm.

And it feels smaller because of shorter lugs curving down. It's going to be my next purchase - can't wait!

372 wears a lot smaller than a 47mm. It's also thinner than some 1950 luminors like the 312. I wish they made it in a 44mm form (and not the 390, the case shape is very different)

That was my dilemma. I loved 372's case but wanted the 390's size. Just love the gold hands on both of them.

47mm uboat on my 6.5in wrist.
It's a fantasy rep but I love this watch. I get so many compliments on just the size of it. Wish I could pull off the 50mm.

New arrival today. Pam111 homage courtesy of Jackson tse.

Band on the last hole. Lol. At least I didn't have to drill a new one on this band.

I have 6 inch wrist but I have never had a problem with any watch whatsoever before, will I have a problem with any replicas? Not looking for anything massive ie. 45mm+. Will I be fine?
