How the Heritage Black Bay 36 wears

Its lugs add 8 mm to the 36 mm case, close to the 7 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 6.25" to 7.25" (15.9–18.4 cm); below 6.25" the lugs start to reach the edge of the wrist.

At 10.4 mm thick it is slimmer than 73% of the 142 other everyday watches we've measured, so it slides under a cuff more easily than most.

Its 19 mm lug width is one of the most common strap sizes; 28 other watches here share it, so aftermarket straps are easy to find.

Will the Heritage Black Bay 36 fit your wrist?

With a 44 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.
