Measuring your wrist
Do you measure it tight or slightly loose with measuring tape ?

When you measure, make sure your hand is open and not in a fist. Your wrist expands as your hand expands, maybe significantly. If you measure with a fist and size your watch that way, it might be really tight.

Fairly snug – the tape should slide round with a little bit of effort.
Of course, it all depends on how you prefer your watches to be worn – tight enough to cut off your circulation or loose so you don’t feel any sense of constriction at all. |

it needs to be tight but without you putting an effort to hold it, 5 and 3/4 is quite small, do you have very small wrists or did you do it too tightly?
