Watch Almanac

Best dress watches for a 5.75-inch wrist

A 5.75" wrist is about 45.3 mm across, so a dress watch fits it best up to 41.3 mm lug-to-lug. 14 we've measured do, from the Cartier Tank Must Extra-Large (automatic) at 41 mm down to the Rolex Lady-Datejust 28 at 34.5 mm. Largest first, so you see the most wrist presence that still fits.
