For the video on large watches, demonstrate them on a 5.5in wrist.
Lmfao
Brilliant. Hahaha.
Hey, 5.5 inches is plenty large 😤
Same problem 😅
My man strapped some postage stamps to his wrist to model for us.
Good thing these smaller watches are shown on a bear paw
wahahahah 😂
xD
When I traveled to Paris some years ago, I bought the Sportura SLQ023 from an AD. It caught my eye because it's such an iconic limited edition piece, but I have a smaller wrist. That's why I find this video very handy. As a collector, I make profits from watches, so I will do my research and find out how much she is worth. I might buy the SRPK29 for my small wrist.
Great that will fetch you some cash. *I used to be a collector, but I liquidated my collection to venture into real estate. In January, I acquired homes in Malibu for $32million, and the returns on investment far exceed what I earned as a collector.
How did you grow your portfolio to $32m, I'm impressed, I have a lump sum in the bank, the rates are not impressive so I'm moving it, what's your cash flow like?
I have a financial advisor (trader) she grows my liquid assets and I reinvest the weekly payouts back into real estate and long-term ETFs like VOO and SCHD. I have also started acquiring some tech ETFs, including IITU and IUCM.
Sure it's all about DCA, could you please share her name with me or any details so I can look her up online? Thanks!
She is well known as - Diana Leayani Lara. please do your own research.
still so many watch brands (mostly the big names) who refuse to list lug to lug distance/height, and just a case diameter. alot of micros will list these details.
Most big name watches get sold physically
Seiko had it for long time.
As someone with a 7" wrist, I really appreciate this video. Good choices, I think. But I also agree that it's slightly amusing that you couldn't borrow a friend with a smaller wrist size to model for you. Would really love to see a smaller wrist demo big watches, as @TheNeybor suggested, lmao.
Loved it, great video!
Great video as always guys! Definitely think the Oceanguard GMT would be right at home on your wrist here! Hope all is well on your end and again, great video!
Yeah, the wrist is wrong here, probably would be better to demonstrate it on women's wrist (no offense, I have 6.1" too), and friendly reminder for all small-wristers - as in video mentioned - lug to lug is WAY more important than diameter.
Good selection.
Watches that I own include:
Certina DS action diver 38mm;
Hamilton jazzmaster 34mm ( on sites sometimes as ' ladies' watch but it isn’t- 90% brushed );
Seiko 5 - snxs , snkl - old, new stock versins ( creation watches);
Dan Henry 1962 ;
Seiko SBTR027;
CW c63 36mm - wears more 38mm on its bracelet; smaller on a strap.
Excellent selection
Good stuff. TY
Timex watches are truly beautiful, surpassing their price range.
Thank you for making this video! There were some interesting selections on here, but I'd say two for each category is just too few. I know you want to keep the video relatively short, but I think doubling the number of watches and talking about each one a bit less would be quite valuable to your viewers.
And, yes, that's too big of a wrist for a video that mentions "smaller wrists" right in the title. Also, in no world is 40mm considered small, but you did do a good job coming in under that number. The magic number is 38mm diameter for future videos. Not sure about lug-to-lug measurements, but I suspect somewhere around 45mm would the upper end there.
I'm looking forward to your next video on the topic.
suuper video
thanks for doing this.
one (or two:) price levels higher would be nice as well
You can pay an extra $250 for a sapphire case back on the 36mm Nomos. Nice video!
Love the JLC. But that Timex Marlin looks pretty darn nice too.
The Longines’ lug to lug wears too large even at 37mm. You need at least a 6.5in wrist to make that work.
Idk how you would call 37 - 40.5 small . Would say small is 32 - 37 depending on the wrist . However solid watches from your pick . Also the timex expedition is more like a gg-w-113 inspired.
eh i would say by modern standards mens watches only really go as small as 35. but yeah i would agree anything north of 38 is crossing into midsize territory. i have 6.5-6.75 wrists and find 39-40 about as big as i can go without feeling silly
Is it me, or part of the Seiko SRPK29 date wheel is lumed as well???
Timex marlin is such a beautiful piece
That Timex Expedition is the best of the bunch.
Tudor Black bay 54 should be in this list!
This is a nice list. I have the timex 36mm expedition north solar. Very nice dial but the lume is not that great.
As an owner of a small wrist(6ish inches) I have to say that choice of a short strap is so much more difficult than small watch
Am I tripping or did the Timex have a 2 second interval on the second hand?
It’s low on battery charge, that’s usually an indicator on most quartz solar watches that the battery needs some sunlight 😊
What’s the strap for the JCL Reverso?
The Longines Spirit would be my perfect watch if it had a screw down crown with some decent water resistance.
Picking the Hamilton as a watch for small wrists. Hmm
What is going on with the second hand on that Timex?
Low battery alert. It has a solar powered quartz movement.
Damn that Zenith is a banger i've never seen it before
Edit: It's almost 8k... wtf..pass
What's the wrist size did the demonstration in the video?
Just under 8”
I like that Lorier Falcon but they are hard to come by, It is always out of stock,
The Lorier Falcon is quite expensive at $499, especially considering it doesn't offer much.
Many people love the falcon, and keep in mind a microbrand cant mass produce and cut costs like the larger brands (which you can argue are gouging)
Great! btw what us your wrist size?
Thanks! A little on the larger size at just under 8”
As said several times, 8 inches...
that timex needs more sun exposure, see how the second hand jumps two seconds at a time, it's in energy saving mode
We need ID on the strap the Reverso was on.
That Zenith Defy doesn't look like a 37 😲
Needs to be renamed to - "10 Classy Watches at every price point"
Yes yes yes
love my marlin
I thought the Hamilton khaki pilot pioneer had acrylic crystal.
It does
Kindly do the review of SEIKO SPB 453 SIR❤😊
Why was that Timex ticking irregularly? like.... tac tac...pause....tac tac....pause
1:06 PLEASE don’t ever fold a Reverso like that! It’s supposed to slide in like you slide it out, otherwise it just ends up folding as it wishes, due to the mechanism wearing out.
Cases for (sun) glases would be interesting,,,,

There is Nomos Club 703.1, which is the 701.1, but with saphire glass back. This fixes the critique :)
Intend your pun!
Skinny gang
Nomos irritates me. So many positive things going for them by they RUIN it with those ridiculous huge lugs which make many of their most interesting pieces unwearable for 6.5 inch wrists.
i think these are normal sized...
슬슬 작은 구경 시계로 트렌드변경될려고 떡밥푸네
These watches are too big
Well made and informative video. Minor feedback, you missed an opportunity to ask a lady to help you model these as the video lends itself to needing a smaller wrist. An attractive women's wrists would likely have gotten you more clicks.
Watch nerds don't watch videos for women's wrists. But I agree a smaller wrist would have been good
Your wrist is not small.
lol wtf showing them on some cave troll's wrist.
You talk a bit too slowly, the guy from the farmer's auction down the street talks faster than you. Can you beat him?
