I have 6.4 in wrist and I find I can wear some 44mm watches but not others and in fact some 40/42mm watches don't wear well. I have had a PAM 311 that I loved the way it fit. I also wear an IWC 3777 without issue. But I had a GO Senator Chronometer and Nomos that wore too large in terms of comfort. So i agree with many of the others-- comfort is what matters

I don't think your wrist size is 6.5". Look big to me. My wrist size 6.5" and smaller than your. Love AP 44mm but cannot put a trigger on it. Too big for my wrist. Even though small wrist still can wear it but look too ugly and shameful for the watch.

I think it looks OK, APs are meant to be larger than life, nothing worse than a ROO that wears small, that's what PPs are for... well the ones that work.

Being big and bold is part of the AP charm, more wrist presence than some other 44's.

Thanks to EVERYONE for your responses. I really appreciate people taking time out of their busy schedules to read my blabber and look at my pictures and then give an honest answer. This is why I love TRF so much. It is pretty cool how complete strangers can come together through this insane hobby. Based on the masses responses I surprisingly think I can definitely pull it off. I realize the watch is supposed to wear big in general but was really shocked IMO that it didn't wear that much different than the 42mm ROOs. With this big of a watch for me a ceramic bezel would be a must. If I were not the OP and was to read the Subject Line of this thread I would've gone into it saying No Way will a 44ROO work on a 6.5" wrist. Maybe my wife took some very deceiving pics and skewed the angles. LOL! Thanks Again Guys for All Your Comments and Valuable Insight. Now I just have to clear it with the wife and contemplate what to sell (if anything)
