DeepSea D-blue
Does a 7-in wrist fit a deepsea d-blue properly? Mine is between 7-7.25 and I wonder if it fits well. I've been looking for one at my local AD to try, but so far there's none. I'm from Orange County, CA.
If anyone with that wrist size and has a d-blue, it would be great if you post a picture of that watch on your wrist. Thanks. |

Any problem with its thickness and weight? I've been warned by a local AD that it would be uncomfortable due to its weight.
Thank you both |

Correct bracelet sizing is crucial and probably the key to comfort.
Wrist size secondary unless your wrist is 6" or smaller. Just IMO. |

I've 6 7/8" wrist. It's heavy and not as comfortable as lighter watch. But I think it's the thickness of the watch instead of its size/weight that make it difficult to wear.

You'd be surprised to which depths of discomfort the human body can get used to.
With that in mind it is quite comfortable and you get used to the weight pretty quickly.

7.5 inch flat wrist but close enough. I would recommend taking off diver extension as it is much more comfortable without it.

6 3/4" wrist. As Ken said, divers extension link out for the perfect fit.

I have a 7.25" flat wrist shape. It's fits perfect and I like the heft!
As Ken mentioned take off the divers extension. I find it to be an extremely comfortable piece. The Glidelock bracelet makes for a perfect fit every time |

My wrist is smaller than yours and it fits fine. So...pull the trigger!

My opinion is a wrist size over 7" should be OK.

Don't have a wrist photo, but it's a very comfortable watch. Surprisingly not too heavy on the wrist. It wears very wells for a bigger watch.
