U1001 50mm Lug to Lug Width?

Hey guys,

Would anyone be able to tell me (or quickly measure, if you own one) the lug to lug width on their 50mm U-boat cases? Been looking around at both rep and gen sites, but I can't seem to track that particular measurement down. Mainly I'm just trying to get a sense of whether I'd be able to "pull one off" given my wrist size/shape, or if I'd have to hunt down the 47mm version instead to satisfy my giant watch needs.

I guess while I'm making a thread about it, if anyone has the 47mm variant and feels like measuring theirs I'd very much appreciate it as well :)

Thanks!

Appreciate the response, but I was actually after the total case width including the lugs. For example my BP is 46mm case diameter, but measures 54.6mm lug to lug.

I was also under the impression they were 23mm lug width?

No lug width is 22mm and the length lug to lug 60mm on a 50mm case. I have 4 U-boat watches 3 are 50mm and 1 55mm.

Interesting, I keep reading 23mm, must be for other models. Good to know.

That also answers my question, cheers. Looks like it'll be 47mm for me.
