This one?

My wrist is 7.25" and I wouldn't even try an all dial 43mm with a huge lug-to-lug like that.
The 40mm? Perhaps, but even that seems large for me.

 

Yes that one

 

Hard to tell, on top of the wrist size you have to consider that there's a difference in the flat surface of the wrist where the watch sits, so you could have the same size of someone else but a less wide area on top (or more).
The best option would be to actually try it at a store or at least print a decal to simulate it.

 

I have a flat wrist. I wish I could try it on in person, no ADs near me.

 

I'd wear it at 43mm with my 6.5" wrist.

Honestly, wouldn't purchase it myself though - I have an HMT Airavata that has a pretty similar look

 

40.

I have a 6.75"/17.1 cm wrist and anything with a L2L over 50mm usually overhangs too much for my tastes. I think the 43 will wear larger than you like.......

 

Moser is not a German brand...moved to Public.

 

Doh! I thought this was in Public. My bad sorry.

 

Why not just go with the 40? With all dial, that seems to be a better fit for your wrist size to me. Mine is 61/4” so I too, need to be mindful of size

 

I have a wrist sized similarly to yours, OP, and this one would be too big for me to consider. That's a lot of dial, and 50 or over lug to lug is beyond my limit. I appreciate Tim Mosso's videos, but you have to take his sizing recommendations with large pinch of salt. He's a salesman at the end of the day.

 

Check out Tim Masso’s YouTube videos for WatchBox. He has a similar wrist size to yours, reviews Moser frequently, and provides on-wrist video for everything he talks about

 

My wrist is 6.75 inches and roundish. I can comfortably wear up to 51mm L2L without problem. I would still go for the 40mm though. The 40mm would likely fit much better.

 

Gotta try a watch on. Everything else is subjective. I tried on a Citizen Blue Angels chrono 45mm yesterday for grins thinking it would be too big. It was fine.

 

I’ve had the Moser Pioneer on my wrist while shopping at DavidSW and have a 7.25” wrist. It was honestly SLIGHTLY too big. I could pull it off but it was definitely “wrist presence”. The original reference blue dial has always been one I loved.

 

Don’t do it. I have a 7 3/4” wrist and it’s on the larger size for me. I want one and will likely get one but it’s big.

 

L2L is the real enemy of those small wristed WIS, and that is a big number.

I would hazard it’s gonna look too big on you, you must try it on first.

So maybe combine a trip to a dealer with a mini break for you and yours?

 

Before dropping 12k on a watch that may not fit, maybe spend a few hundred on a flight to an AD? NYC, Dallas, Philly, LA, depending what part of the country you're in, should be able to find a reasonable direct flight to major airports like those. Either make a long weekend of it with the wife, or take a commuter flight early and red eye it home same day.

 

I may have to. On the trip I just got back from I had a 9 hour layover in Philly and was planning on heading into town for lunch and a stop at Govberg to try this on, but my flight into Philly was delayed so didn't get the chance.

 

I found an older thread here where someone with a wrist even smaller than mine owned and wore one of these for several years. Maybe rethinking this?

Yes, it's big. But I own 2 PloProfs and 2 Tunas (one quartz 300M, one Spring Drive) so i'm not afraid of biggness in of itself. It's the L2L and the fit which based on these photos seems like it might be OK?

H.Moser & Cie Pioneer Centre Seconds - Blue Fume...

I have owned my H.Moser & Cie Pioneer Centre Seconds for not far off three years now. One of the Members here was keen to know my thoughts on this Watch, so I thought that I might as well do some sort of review here. From now on, I shall refer to this brand as Moser, for ease of typing. Moser...

If you're used to huge watches the perception may be different, but still - the Ploprofs and the Seikos have chunky bezels. They are not all-dial. That makes quite a difference

My 37.5mm Nomos looks as big (if not bigger) on my wrist than the 42mm Doxa Sub 300T.

 

It's no the size of the watch, but the motion of the wrist. So I've been told anyway.

 

Nothing wrong with wearing a big watch to compliment how good of shape one is in. Slim is in.

 

Yeah... there may be a problem with that in my case

 

I have the exact same wrist size as you and I've had both the larger and smaller pioneer. You can definitely wear the larger one if you love it. It's the absolute upper limit for me personally and it wears big because of the design. I personally prefer the 40mm size if given the choice but you can pull off the larger one if you prefer the colors available or if you just like it bigger.

 

I reckon the 40mm will be more for you but travel to try one on. Watch size is a bit of a moveable feast and you are the only person who can be 100% sure of what size is for you.

 

Well you only live once. I decided to say screw it and go for it. Arrived today.

I think its perfect.
