Reference guide

Watch references by lug-to-lug

The span from lug tip to lug tip, which is what actually determines whether a case sits flat on a wrist. Most makers do not publish it; the references below are the ones that do.

43 of 96 references carry this figure. The other 53 are absent because their makers do not publish it — not because it is unknown to us.

Under 45 mm (13)

Sits flat on most wrists, including narrow ones.

45 to 47.9 mm (15)

48 to 49.9 mm (9)

50 mm and over (6)

Will overhang a narrow wrist. Measure the buyer first.
