43mm is not too wide. My Seiko 5 Sports is 42mm, and my Citizen Ecodrive the same. Though my wrist is on the slimmer side., these do not look too big.

Hey Ramana,
Am glad you liked it. I have it for about 2-3 years and it runs like a charm.
Have dunked it in water, struck it multiple times against walls/rocks and it just keeps going.
All the best with your watch hunt.
Cheers,
Deepak

is EMPORIO ARMANI a good brand with watch collectors or just another fashion watches brand. I have heard of them but more for their clothes and sunglasses

Just another fashion brand. They look good online but very very average on the wrist. In fact, I found them to be of below average quality. I suggest you take a look at them at a Shoppers Stop to get an idea. Edifice, Fossil, Seiko, Citizen,etc. provide far better value at that price point.

Looks like a few demos are in order. Difficult to find specific models in store these days. I'll check out Ethos if they have these.

I have very slim hands and usually nothing more than a 40mm works. But this Casio is perfect.

Your post is what piqued my interest. One of my must-haves for a watch is that it shouldn't get in the way, and this one looks well-sized. How does it feel weight-wise?

Reference, my daily driver is an F91W.

Look no further than the classic-est G Shock of them all - the 5600. This is the legendary model which Kikuo Ibe generated and has pretty much remained the same in terms of core design since the 1980s. While most other G Shocks are pretty massive, this one is great for the smaller wrist. I have been rocking one since the last couple of years, and have nothing but good things to say about it. One of my most important considerations was that the size should fit a relatively smaller wrist, and this one fits the bill perfectly. What's more, its the cheapest G Shock on sale (as far as I know), and the tough solar model is around INR 4900 odd on Amazon (https://www.amazon.in/Casio-G-Shock-...%2C1117&sr=8-1).

Have been wearing this watch all through my workouts, swimming, basically anything which holds a possibility of the watch getting roughed up- and there is not even any major scratch to show for it till date. Mine is the basic battery powered one, and not the solar model. Super light as well. It is slightly chunkier than the F91W that you currently use, but then, that one is not a G Shock.

Wait for the Christmas time sale and likely you will be able to score one at way less than that. Friendly Mod Viddy picked one up in the 3000s just a few days back.

Super lightweight and comfortable. It's my new weekend and vacation watch. It feels lighter than my Seiko 5 sports automatic and my office Citizen Eco-drive.

Even I got one after you . Like someone mentioned, I never bother to take it off. Never concerned that it might spoil.

We are an all Omega family. Constellation(s) for my wife, son, and daughter-in-law, also daughter and son-in law. I have a Constellation in the large size. I also have a Speedmaster Pro which is now with our son. The Speedmaster was bought in 1974 in Switzerland. Only our daughter also has a Rolex.

Here's my small collection; nothing exotic though.

This Titan Edge was gifted by my parents about 12 years ago when I secured a campus placement after my MBA, hence it is most special for me. Claimed to be the slimmest watch, this is a beauty.



This Titan watch was gifted to me, but sadly I don't wear it much. It's kind of big for my smallish wrist and a bit flashy for my taste.



This is a Tissot T-sports. Nice watch, lovely chrono, race design; goes well with casuals. Has luminous hands.



This one is my beater Timex. Goes well with formals on those 'gruffy' days when you just push yourself to office somehow. Needs a strap change badly.



A Timex Ironman, some 17-18 years old may be...great watch, auto indiglo, sturdy. Great to pair with T-shirts and a pair of jeans.



Acquired recently, this is Seiko 5- automatic. Impeccably beautiful, mechanical watch. Has a glass rear as well. Has great luminescence.




And this one is wife's...was an impromptu purchase. I loved the timeless classy looks and got it for her, though she wanted some jwellery!

There's a DW-5700 in round case which is also suitable for slim wrists. Link here

Recently launched GA-2100 or the Casio Oak is in such demand that all variants are sold out. This too suits small wrists.

Nice little collection there. Like both the Seiko 5 and the Tissot chronograph. I have a thing for blue dials, so anything with a rich blue dial gets my attention

The only reason why I have not yet added a Seiko 5 to my collection is because of the non-hand winding movement 7S26. Though some of the new Seiko 5 models come with the 4R series of movements which are both hacking and hand winding. Otherwise, Seiko 5s are perfect for the smaller wrist, elegant and the epitome of a beater mechanical watch.
