Understanding the key measurements of a watch is essential for finding the perfect fit.
Lug-to-lug is the distance from the tip of the top lug to the tip of the bottom lug. It shows how long a watch sits on your wrist and is the key measurement for comfort and fit.
Wrist width decides how a watch truly fits. If the lug-to-lug is wider than your wrist width, the case will overhang; if it is shorter, the watch hugs comfortably. More than circumferen, wrist width is the key to check the fit.
Case diameter shows how big a watch looks, but lug-to-lug shows how it actually fits. If it is longer than your wrist, the watch overhangs. Shorter, curved lugs hug the wrist and improve comfort — fit always beats size.
Not always. If the lug-to-lug is longer than your wrist width, the watch may overhang — but curved or angled lugs can help it sit better. Flat lugs, however, usually make the watch wear larger. For the best comfort and balance, it’s still recommended to choose watches with a lug-to-lug equal to or shorter than your wrist width.
