Some watches are best worn with formal outfits, while others should be reserved for casual looks.

But there is one type of watch that is extremely versatile: the dive watch.

But there is one problem with dive watches that men with small wrists have to look out for: the fact that they’re often too big and bulky.

Dive watches are some of the coolest watches out there. They’re sporty, casual, rugged and durable.

There’s one watch, in particular, that made divers so incredibly popular over the last few decades.

The Quintessential Dive Watch

One can’t talk about dive watches without mentioning the Rolex Submariner.

Since its introduction in 1953, the model remained largely unchanged and has become the quintessential dive watch.

Besides the four-figure price tag, there is one problem though that specifically concerns men with small wrists:

The 40 mm (1.6”) diameter and the generally clunky dive watch design make it appear too big on most modest men’s wrists.

As mentioned in the TMM post about watches for small wrists, 40 mm is the absolute biggest watch diameter men with small wrists should wear.

Keep in mind though that applies only if the case and straps are thin. Clearly, the Rolex Submariner doesn’t fall into that category.

But dive watches are so classic, iconic and cool. Which is why James Bond has been wearing them for over 50 years.
