Watch Size Guide

Everything you need to find your perfect fit — case diameter, strap dimensions, and water resistance explained simply.

01
Getting started

How to Measure Your Wrist

WRIST CIRCUMFERENCE
1

Use a flexible tape

Wrap a soft measuring tape around your wrist just below the wrist bone — where you'd normally wear a watch.

2

No tape? Use paper

Wrap a thin strip of paper around your wrist, mark where it overlaps, then measure that length flat with a ruler.

3

Note your size in mm

Record the circumference in millimetres. Use the chart below to match your wrist to the ideal case diameter.

4

Trust your taste

Prefer understated elegance? Go smaller. Want a bold statement? Size up. Both look exceptional — it's personal.

Pro tip

Measure in the morning when your wrist is at its natural resting size. Wrists can swell slightly after exercise or in heat, which may affect your measurement.

Strap length explained

Strap length is shown as short piece / long piece — e.g. 110/125mm means the buckle side is 110mm and the hole side is 125mm. Wrist under 155mm → choose short. Over 190mm → choose long. Most people fit standard.

Water protection

Water Resistance Levels

3

3 ATM / 30m

Splash proof only. Rain and hand washing. Not suitable for swimming.

5

5 ATM / 50m

Light swimming and shower safe. Avoid high-pressure water or diving.

10

10 ATM / 100m

Swimming, snorkelling and water sports. Not for scuba diving.

20

20 ATM / 200m

Scuba diving and high-impact water activities. Full protection.

Important note

Water resistance is not permanent — seals age and can degrade from impacts or wear. Have your watch pressure tested annually if you regularly use it in water. Never press crown buttons while submerged unless rated for it.
