OMEGA is one of those brands that tend to be beloved more than most brands for those that are lucky enough to say they own one. Yet the question of where to start with the brand certainly is up to the buyer, the question of what the most affordable contemporary OMEGA watch can't be debated the same way.

My wrist is over 7 1/2 inches, I used to only wear 40 mil + case diameters then got my first vintage watch an omega geneve 34 mil. The first week I didn't like it and was tempted to return it, after 2 weeks it was my primary watch, the size actually makes it stand out, it looks more expensive and elegant than my bigger watches, whose size I no longer like, it's strange how the mind works!

@omegawatchfan 2 года назад

39.5mm version of these Omega DeVille Prestige are my favorite. Very versatile size, can be dressed up or down. Absolute sleeper of a watch.

If it weren’t for your videos showcasing watches for smaller wrists, I wouldn’t have realized the wonderful proportions of smaller watches on my wrist. Now my largest watch is a 40mm which feels large against my 34-38mms. Wonderful content as always!

@bighands69 2 года назад

40mm should be for sports watches that are used for various tasks such as diving.

@BuddhaRice 5 лет назад

this is great, my wife is not a watch person, but I was determined to get her a timeless watch. We ended up getting the de ville, and she has been very happy with this!

@davidnickson7034 5 лет назад

This size is ideal for many people, perhaps most. The size, in terms of the diameter of the dial in addition to the case is rarely mentioned and would be worth including.

@marky9223 5 лет назад

I have 8" wrists and was really into vintage watches when I first started collecting. I think the smallest I had was a 35mm Tudor from the 50's. But, as i moved away from vintage into contemporary designs, my tastes changed and I didn't care for the smaller sizes and eventually sold all my vintage watches. I still don't like huge watches though and usually stay between 40 and 42 mm.

@MS-sy8ls 5 лет назад

I wore a 42mm Omega for 12 years and earlier this year bought a 40mm Rolex. It felt small for a few weeks but now I love it. I also have a vintage 34mm Tudor which I inherited from my grandfather. At first I thought it was too small to wear but you’re right - after just a couple of wears you get used to the smaller sizes. Happy days!

@TeddyBaldassarre 5 лет назад

Thanks for sharing this! I have had the reverse experience starting with smaller pieces and climbing up to 40 mm. Also, great piece to inherit. Enjoy it and thanks for watching!

@MS-sy8ls 5 лет назад

Teddy Baldassarre thanks Teddy, great content as always. Keep it coming! 👍🏻

@melo11n 5 лет назад

I agree with the tendency of getting used to a larger watch. All my watches are 40-45mm size. I had a marlin 34mm and I returned it , I wasn't used to it and couldn't stand the visible tan lines lol cool vid. thanks

@TeddyBaldassarre 5 лет назад

Yeah 40-45 mm is a big jump down. I have noticed with myself recently wearing more 40 mm pieces that going back to this sizing does take a moment to adjust. Thanks for watching!

@dkpirie 5 лет назад

You such a nice, unassuming guy and so knowledgeable about watches. Your photography is excellent, changing the background shows the watch off in a different way and keeps our interest going.

@jkkay477 5 лет назад

My 90s-era Constellation (the Manhattan series that Teddy isn’t a fan of) has a 32mm case, which is _tiny_ by today’s standards, but I’ve been very happily wearing it for the past 25-odd years. It’s only recently when I looked for a diver’s watch that I realised how huge modern watches have gotten.

@bighands69 2 года назад

Wrist watches are suppose to be small and unassuming. It is ok when you need a large dial for visibility when diving. Real men were discrete watches.

@MidEnginedFan 5 лет назад

Wow, handsome watch! Love the silver and simple face. No minute markers are a bonus and keep the display simple and elegant. Thanks for showing this 👍

@lukefellows7493 5 лет назад

Nice review Teddy. I own this exact model and wear it as my dress watch. It is a good watch and great value pre-owned. I have an 8 inch wrist so it is probably a little small for me but it still looks sharp.

Have you noticed the sound of the watch ticking is quite noticeable and also the sound when you move your wrist?

@utsavpaliwal99 5 лет назад

As far as size preferences go, i feel its more like asking what size shirts you wear. It depends on your own dimensions and what fits. A 36mm on my slender wrists looks good, but it might not look good someone with bigger wrists. This is usually the case, unless we're talking about one off concept pieces which are meant to be a certain way like John Mayer's Concept AP chrono. Also wanted to say that l really like these one watch reviews of yours!

@@chauhanrajput4733 Depends on your wrist size. You said you have a 6 inch wrist, so I think 32mm is okay for a dress watch. But keep in mind that case diameter is not the only factor deciding the watch size.

@whatsinanameish 5 лет назад

I have a 7.25 wrist and work best with 42 or 43mm... but to your question about smaller watches on larger wrists: I find myself attracted to the more edgy vintage pieces of the 60's and 70's where you have cushion or tv dials that take something that is basically 34 or 36mm and gives it more of a 40mm presence to the eye.

@MacPro8CoreMan 5 лет назад

I have a 35.5mm dress watch which is from 2016. I'm 56 years old and every time I wear this small piece my wife says it makes me look like I'm 10 years older. As for my own personal taste, I do like a 39-42mm vintage look dress watch.

Thanks for the nice overview of an under-appreciated model. Since you asked: I wanted a more elegant watch than my Raymond Weil quartz chronograph and have always been interested in Omega. For my first Omega, I got a 1972 C-case Constellation, and I really like it on my 7.5-inch wrist. Maybe it helps that the C-case design visually extends the case in two dimensions, but it makes for a versatile watch that fits easily under a dress shirt.

I have about a 7.75 inch wrist and I love wearing sub-38mm watches. Love the vintage Rolexes in 34-36mm size, Tudor Black Bay 36 and my current go-to watch is an Omega Seamaster Co-axial diver Midsize (36.25mm). To put things in perspective for a lot of folks who are all about the larger watches, the original Submariner was about 37mm in diameter.

@bighands69 2 года назад

A large dial for diving is a great choice but it is not needed for every day life.

@mattinthemountains 4 года назад

I wish the vintage watches were just a bit bigger. I have a 7.5” wrist and am 6’2” at 200lbs. Unfortunately anything under 40mm looks very odd and honestly quite feminine on me. I have seen so many beautiful watches come by and have been admiring them for a long time. I absolutely adore the vintage omegas and rolexes, but I can’t pull it off. I might still buy one just to admire and maybe put on at home when no one is looking.

@davem8836 5 лет назад

@thatladudevcast 5 лет назад

Super late comment but, I have an average sized wrist. I although, I do own a 46mm watch, and it doesn't look too ridiculous on the wrist. But in my experience wearing smaller watches, a round case looks smaller compared to a square or square-like case. I wear a 35mm Bulova dress watch quite often, and that watch looks bigger than my snk-805. So if anyone wants to try a smaller watch but hasn't found one that looks way too small, give a non round watch a try

@dwightlooi Год назад

The De Vile 36.8 is BIG and definitely not a the classic size. A classic dress watch for men will be 32~34mm. That's why I prefer the De Ville 34mm Master Chronometer. It wears really nicely. You can see the bracelet. I hate watches that cover the whole wrist; I want to see the bracelet coming off each side. The only downside is that it is kinda thick at 10.1mm and it wears kinda thick with the slab sides.
