How the Classics Carrée Small Seconds wears

Its lugs reach 10.8 mm past the 25.2 mm case, more than the 7 mm typical across the almanac, so it wears larger than its diameter suggests.

On our fit model it sits best on wrists from 5.5" to 6" (14.0–15.2 cm).

At 5.8 mm thick it is slimmer than 100% of the 47 other rectangular watches we've measured, so it slides under a cuff more easily than most.

Its 18 mm lug width is one of the most common strap sizes; 24 other watches here share it, so aftermarket straps are easy to find.

Will the Classics Carrée Small Seconds fit your wrist?

With a 36 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.
