The 36mm Club

The Rolex Explorer is the smallest lug to lug of any watch I've discussed on the podcast, but the small size plays into the history and tradition of this watch. In this episode I discuss the history and fit of the watch, and why it would be a good addition to a collection.

The Grand Seiko SBGP017 Sea of Clouds is perhaps one of the best limited editions this year from Grand Seiko. Not only does the watch fit slim wrists but the dial design and movement make it a great daily watch as well.

The Bulgari Octo Roma Worldtimer's in-house movement, thoughtful design for slim wrists, and storied brand heritage make this an excellent under-the-radar addition for collectors and travelers. For show notes, check out https://www.the36mm.com/

The Zenith Chronomaster Original is the spiritual successor to the A386 from 1969. It also happens to be a great watch for slim wrists, and is a versatile wear thanks to the iconic tri-color sub registers. For show notes, check out https://www.the36mm.com/

The 41mm Breitling Navitimer B01 Chronograph is excellent for slim wrists, has unique design elements and pays tribute to horological and aviation history.

The Rolex Daytona fits slim wrists well, and that fit, combined with its iconic history, gave me a greater appreciation for why the Daytona is so loved. In this episode, I go over the history of the Daytona and why the fit of Reference 116503 is excellent for slim wrists. For show notes, check out https://www.the36mm.com/

The recently released Tudor Black Bay Pro is a great watch for slim wrists, and is a great companion for my summer travels. While some people may be intimidated by its thickness at 14.6 mm, the other dimensions of the watch make it wearable and sporty looking on slim wrists.
