Watch Almanac

Best rectangular watches for a 7-inch wrist

A 7" wrist is about 55.1 mm across, so a rectangular watch fits it best up to 51.1 mm lug-to-lug. 12 we've measured do, from the Cartier Santos de Cartier Large at 47.5 mm down to the Cartier Santos de Cartier Medium at 41.9 mm. Largest first, so you see the most wrist presence that still fits.
