I measure in at bang on 6.5 (maybe a bit under before I started lifting and generally eating more) and would definitely classify myself as a skinny.

I was worried a 40mm Rollie would be too big but having received a 16610, it's perfect. Literally the perfect proportion, perhaps maybe even a teeny weeny bit on the small side, but I can see why the bigger guys definitely say Subs are too small for them.

I thought an earlier vintage 37.5/38mm would be perfect for me initially, but honestly have started thinking they could look somewhat feminine in their size. Don't get me wrong, I L O V E the small sleek watch look, which is why I was worried, but the 40mm just seems absolutely bang on the money for a men's watch.

XL or mid size?
Well, I don't know the answer. :whistling: This is the one I bought: Click here.

At first, I thought that 38.5 mm would be a small size (even for my 6.25" wrist). But I went to a AD and I wore the gen. The size was perfect. It's a square watch, so I think we must consider the diagonal measurement.

Hmm, I have the same size wrist and ordered the 33mm mid sized one. Wonder how that will look. I heard the 38mm (xl) wears bigger because of the it is square. That's why I ordered the smaller one.

I'll be interested to see that. The 38mm is too big for me too.
