How the Santos-Dumont Large wears

Its lugs reach 12.1 mm past the 31.4 mm case, more than the 7.1 mm typical across the almanac, so it wears larger than its diameter suggests.

On our fit model it sits best on wrists from 6.25" to 7.25" (15.9–18.4 cm); below 6.25" the lugs start to reach the edge of the wrist.

At 7.3 mm thick it is slimmer than 93% of the 56 other dress watches we've measured, so it slides under a cuff more easily than most.

Will the Santos-Dumont Large fit your wrist?

With a 43.5 mm lug-to-lug, here is how it wears across common wrist sizes. We estimate the flat top of each wrist from its circumference; measure yours for a closer answer in the fit finder.
