How small is TOO small?

[tomservo]

Okay, not talking about THAT...


I recently purchased a vintage Hamilton Langdon on e-bay and I didn't do quite enough due diligence. The face is really small compared to today's standards. Like 30mm small. It looks a little off compared to today's standards. Do you think this would look too weird or is it just part of the style of the era it was made in (1950's).


And No it's not a lady's watch....

I really enjoy wearing my vintage watches (32-34mm). Watch size is like so many things... once you've gotten accustomed to it, it seems normal. A small vintage watch may feel tiny, but give it a couple days and you might surprise yourself with how much you like it. And remember - these watches weren't "too small" for our grandfathers' generation.

No no no, it's too small for you. You should give it to me instead, it would look fine on my small wrist.


Nah, seriously, keep it. Vintage watches are awesome.
