PAM 111 on 6.5"

20151002_175019%20800_zpsew5klwup.jpg


In previous posts I said that my wrist was 6.25". I have just measured it and now it is 6.5". Maybe I am getting stronger.

I don't think working out increases your wrist thickness lol.

The RM pics above are not too bad.
I've tried the gen and was impressed by the way it looks on a small wrist.
Fake RMs are probably thicker right?

I used to own a SubC with 6" wrists. It will be fine if you get the latest Noob versions that have only 3 permanent links either side like the gen. The not so good versions of the 116610 have 4 permanent links which is wrong, if you get it you will have to remove a permanent link to center the clasp. but it will still be wearable since you also have the adjustable glidelock clasp.

I suppose you are referring to the Noob V5 version of 116610 that will come with only 3 permanent links? I have a 5.5inch wrist and I am also wondering whether I need to remove any perm links to slip the 116610 thru my hands. Thanks.

Nice! Try the 512 instead for better fit

Thanks. I actually think the Pam111 at 44mm is ok for a super small wrist like mine. The more i look at the watch on my wrist, the more I think it is Ok. The look will "grow" on you.

Perhaps the 1 thing I need to do, is to get a XS or a shorter customised strap. The PAM111 rep comes with a stock strap that means 120mm on the long side and 75mm on the short side. I am pretty sure that a 105/65mm or even a 110/70mm strap will be perfectly fine. :)

Not sure what versions but i am sure you'll be able to see on the pictures. You won't need to remove any permanent links i think. Especially with the glidelock clasp.

380 on a 6.5 wrist. I think it looks less bulky due to wire lugs.....

will this watch 44mm x 13mm will be big on 6" hand ? what do you think gentlemen ?

Probably it will look big, but this is a question of personal taste. Most people in this thread feel comfortable with 44 mm watches.

My advice: Go to any shop and try a similar watch on your wrist.

I have weared 45mm and its ok. The problem is the thickness. This watch on the photos is like 9mm. Cant find 13mm to try :(. I think it will be too fat you know.. If you tell me it will be ok i will buy it lol

Hey guys, newbie here, my first post. I am thinking about buying 41mm Carrera cal 1887. Is anyone wearing that? My wrist is really thin (about 6") and though the size of the watch might be OK I am a bit worried about the thickness 17mm.
