It's quite a small watch 32mm is known as a 'boys' size.

I don't think the oyster bracelet is correct with the fluted bezel, but I could be wrong.

It looks like a girls watch as it is very small. It looks nice, real, good condition, but SMALL!

...it was...

...a MID-SIZE. Larger than a ladies, but smaller than a man's size.

...if you are a small person, this would have been a great watch.

...HOWEVER, it ended with a BUY IT NOW purchase. Was that you??

Yep that would be me. It is a gift and I thought it was a midsize. Will inspect. I made sure there was a return policy just in case.

I did research over the internet but I thought there would be experts here in the forum.

So is it indeed a midsize?
