How the Portugieser Chronograph wears

Its lugs add 7 mm to the 41 mm case, close to the 7.1 mm typical across the almanac, so its diameter is a fair guide to how it wears.

On our fit model it sits best on wrists from 6.75" to 8" (17.1–20.3 cm); below 6.75" the lugs start to reach the edge of the wrist.

At 13.1 mm thick it is slimmer than 67% of the 24 other chronograph watches we've measured, so it slides under a cuff more easily than most.

Will the Portugieser Chronograph fit your wrist?

With a 48 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.
