What size dial should you choose for a men's or women's watch?
Nov 15,2023
Since men and women have different wrist sizes, you need to pay attention to the size of the dial when choosing a watch. A watch dial that is too large will make people feel uncoordinated, and a watch dial that is too small will make people feel too stingy. Watch manufacturers recommend that you choose a watch dial that suits you according to the following methods.
1. Men’s watch dial
(1) Small to medium size: 38mm to 42mm
These sizes are considered average and will fit most men. They have a classic and timeless look.
(2) Large size: 44mm and above
Bigger watches are more of a contemporary trend. They can make a bold fashion statement, but you have to make sure they don't weigh down the wearer's wrist.
2. Women’s watch dial
(1) Small to medium size: 26mm to 38mm
Women's watches usually fall into this range. Small sizes can be more elegant and suitable for formal occasions, while medium sizes can provide a balanced look for everyday wear.
(2) Large size: 40mm and above (rare for women’s watches)
While larger watches are more common among men's models, some women prefer larger, statement watches. However, it is crucial to consider the proportions of your wrist.
3. Unisex watch dials
(1) Medium size: 38mm to 42mm
Watches in this size range are generally considered unisex and can be worn comfortably by both men and women.
(2) Other considerations:
Wrist size: Larger wrists can often accommodate larger watches, but personal style preference matters.
Style Preference: Some people prefer larger, more dramatic watches for a bold and modern look, while others prefer smaller, more understated options for a classic and timeless look.
Occasion: Consider where and when you will wear your watch. Smaller watches may be more suitable for formal events, while larger watches are suitable for casual or sporting occasions.
Trends: Watch size trends may change over time. What is popular now may not be popular in a few years. Choose a size that suits your personal style, rather than just following trends.
In the actual purchasing process, it is based on the overall feeling of wearing it on-site. It’s also a good idea to try out different sizes and styles to see what works best for you or the wearer’s wrist. We are a watch manufacturer.
