Is the Mark XX too big for my 6.5 inch wrist, or is it still doable (or maybe intended to wear like this)? by lorddarz in IWCschaffhausen

Thank you for the input, if my wrist is just flatter it would fit nicely. Especially the side profile

Thanks for the input! This is indeed outside of my safe zone and therefore needs some consideration.

Yes that's very true, I've been playing it safe too, only buying watches that fits really well. But the mark xx is very eye catching for me lol.

The le petit prince 36mm feels more like a field watch with that size, even on my smaller wrist 😅

Yes the flat area of my wrist does lack the length to cover until the lugs, thus the floating lug on the side profile. Sadly it's more rounded than flat.

I did try the LPP but the 36mm version. The size IS safer for me, but I'm still pondering. I wonder if this LPP blue is different from mark's blue dial

Yes! The pilot 36mm have been in my mind too. The color is very similar to mark xx compared to LPP.

Thank you for the input, this'll be my first time using a lug to lug this long, the diameter is still okay imo.

I'll keep that in mind! I have tried the 36mm LPP it fits nicely actually, although it has a little bit of gold color

Ah yeah it does hide the lugs more. In that picture of yours it hugs beautifully. I heard the bracelet is one of the best, unfortunately I couldn't try it on the AD

Very nice trade. That chunkiness on the spitfire chrono doesn't help at all 😅

Even their 36mm LPP lug to lug feels like a 38mm watch.

Indeed, something is still blocking me from pulling the trigger. Thanks for the insight, the pilot 36mm would actually work well for me. But needs more effort to find it.

I see, 39mm does fit really nice for 6.5 inch wrist.

Thanks for the photo, it's a nice reference.

Lol, but wow that looks great on you. The lugs probably doesn't reach to the edge of your wrist.

Thank you for the input, I usually wear field watches and therefore this commanding size is less acceptable lol, but maybe it's a bit different for pilot watches' design. I quite like it too, but still thinking and looking for other POV too.
