I am 6.75 wrist, my wife is 6... Try to buy unisex type watches that either can wear.
Some boxes that need to be checked... Under 40mm, check Lug 20mm, check allows for a variety of bands that can be interchanged without buying multiple sizes.
Reasonable priced, how does this compare to some others with similar size (37-38), lug (20)... Seiko SARB 017 Alpinist, Sapphire Seiko SARB 033 (black) or 035 (khaki), Sapphire Seiko SKX013, 37 mm diver, Hardlex Seiko SNE049 (blue) or 039 (black), 37 mm solar quartz, Hardlex Citizen BM8180, 37 mm Eco Drive, Mineral but has 18 mm lug. Great EDC value watch under $100 my opinion.
Would like this Victorinox more as quartz with lower price for a field watch but still price point is under the SARB lineup

AloraSARB033 is still on my wishlist but I own SARB017 & SKX013. The SKX is a no brainer for someone with a small wrist looking for a diving watch. Most of these watches tend to be large and the big watch trend is still not dead. My only complaint is that there is no manual winding, but movement can be upgraded if necessary. The Alpinist is a beauty, maybe one of the nicest affordable watch around and with the Cocktail line the most requested watch on MD. I'll get these two before considering the Victorinox. But the Victorinox on MD is a good deal anyway, I find ETA smoother and you won't have to change the bracelet.

AloraI have a Sarb033 and am thinking of going for this drop...the blue dial and features are really tempting at this price.
