I started off in the rolex general discussion and that lead to 2 purchases and then i came to the AP section just for a browse and now i am dying to get an AP ROO FC dive

Only problem is that i don't think my wrist is large enough... I have heard that the AP diver sits quite massively both in diameter and depth.

I have a wrist size of 6.5" Would that be OK, or is my wrist too small :bang head:

Thanks for your help.

The Diver in stainless steel looks pretty big, however it's not got the same look in FC and looks smaller. It's a great watch.

Hamish · 17 September 2014, 07:04 AM

It will be better than OK

MrJ320 · 17 September 2014, 08:20 AM

I have a 6.5" wrist and tried on a SS diver, no problem at all!

Kadhytia · 17 September 2014, 08:27 AM

I thought that my wrist wpuld be too small for any ROO. But as soon as I tried it and changed the strap to the OEM XS size It fits nicely

benlee · 17 September 2014, 09:28 AM

You will be fine. The FC Diver wears slightly smaller than the SS equivalent anyway. If need be, you also add a XS strap for better fit.

texex91 · 17 September 2014, 10:16 AM

6.5" NO problem...I'd start looking at 44mm

Hairdude1 · 17 September 2014, 12:14 PM

You have to try it on and you will see it fits perfectly

kilyung · 17 September 2014, 01:32 PM

Being 6.5" wristed, I can attest to this fact... it'll work fabulously!

Hahah thats great news! Im getting all excited now

But like Hairdude said, ill try it on and then pull the trigger

diver2012 · 17 September 2014, 11:48 PM

FC Diver is a good choice as it is only 42mm (as opposed to 44mm) and also in black looks smaller still. Go for it!

And the thickness is much shorter

AK797 · 18 September 2014, 05:18 AM

You should be alright but they do wear quite a bit bigger than 40mm Rolexes so best to try one on. Also try on the smaller RO and ROC.

watchdog507 · 18 September 2014, 05:47 AM

It's a state of mind!! If you think it's good, it is.

71eh · 20 September 2014, 04:18 PM

Perfectly okay. I have FC diver it works as beauty

I'm at about 6.5 and have a 44mm ROO. Needed the short strap but it is awesome!

SigloII · 26 September 2014, 04:41 AM

Definitely ask your AD to order the small strap as it may take some time to get. Otherwise you'd be looking at buckling the last hole.
