Radiomir, does it wear bigger than 111?
I am looking at a Radiomir, but I am probably going to purchase online without trying it on.
I had a 111 in the past and it "just" fit without being too uncomfortable. Since I have a 6" wrist will the 45mm Radiomir feel big and uncomfortable? I only guess that it could be seem a little smaller than the 111 due to the fact that it has no crown guard Also is the 26mm tapered or is it 26mm all the way around? THNX |

Well, for me the 45mm Rad fits smaller than the 44mm Lum. Depends on your wrist, but almost everyone thinks the 45mm Rads fit smaller.
The OEM strap is tapered down.

Agree totally with Mik, due to slimmer case they wear thinner.

Look smaller than Luminor. And more comfortable to wear.

yes slimmer case and the shape too, makes it fit smaller and possibly neater IMO .
26 tapers to 22mm at the buckle

Does 24mm straps fit on Radiomir?
The 26 to 22mm is great though as I hate the wide straps all the way around on my tiny wrist! |
