"WOW" I have just seen the yellow dialed Seawolf at my local jewellers and what a monster :twisted:
I would like to own next either the Superocean Steelfish or the Seawolf.
One set back, I only have a 7" wrist size "LOL".

7" is pretty average actually. Many here have wrists under 7" sporting Bentley Motors and 6.75's. Im at 6.75" and wear a skyland thats about the size of the seawolf. Its big...in a good way.

I have a 6,5" wrist and the Skyland fits perfectly and is very comfortable. Usually I don´t even notice it. So you should have no problem with the Seawolf.

I have 7.5" wrists and the Seawolf sits nicely, but it would definitely look at home on a 7". When it comes to bigger watches, sometimes it boils down to your own confidence. Ive seen plenty of guys with smaller wrists pull off a Super Avenger with no problem because they werent self conscious about it's size. Id say go for it. Its a great watch.

Get it. You can handle it. It's a man's watch and
you're a man, right? :wink: :wink:

Breitling Seawolf. Large, heavy watch. Amazingly comfortable on 7.5in wrist. I haven't tried it with the PRO II bracelet, though, that would add a bit of weight as well.
Cheers,
Carl

I know its been said before..but you have to go to the AD and actually try it on. I went in to try on a SA, I have 7.5" wrists, 5'10", 200lbs. And although my girlfriend and the sales person though it looked fine, I didn't feel comfortable with it. So I went with the Seawolf, which I felt was the perfect size for my wrist/arm. I think another thing to consider the size and shape of a person. If you have a 7" wrist and 6'1" 225lbs the Seawolf will look alot smaller then on someone with a 7" wrist, 5'7", 150lbs. In the end, try it and go with what feels right. If you have any doubts...its probably not the right one. But with all that said....I dont think the Seawolf will too big at all on your wrist!

A SA is not counted out yet....I think I just need to slowly build up to it!

Hi Guys and thanks for the help,

I just measured my wrist again and it measures around 6.5". I am 5'7" tall and weigh 140ibs.
So I think its best for me to try it on for size at my local jewllers :wink:

Yep, go and try it. If it helps at all, I also have a 6.5 inch wrist - I've tried on the Seawolf and it definitely works well for me. (mind you, I'm 6'1'' and 192lbs)

Nice thing about the Seawolf (or at least the Titanium) is that it is a nice size, yet surprisingly light. So if you have a tiny lil :oops: scrawny 6.5" wrist, :bow: or a big beefy 9" wrist like me , it looks great either way, and you can carry it no problem. I love this watch. I have the Ti with the Yellow dial and black leather deployment strap. It's a great look. Good luck in your travels...

My wrist is 7" and it's fine on me i think you need to make the bracelet pretty neat when you size it then the watch sits properly.
