It only fits smaller wrists
This watch is beautiful, but the cuff type band is very small. (reason for minus one star). I still wear it some, but I have to keep moving it around for it to be more comfortable. If you are on the thinner side, you will love this watch. It came on time and the packaging was sturdy. All in all, it works good, it’s sharp looking, and the price is great.

For a very petite wrist
I have a child-size wrist at 5.5 inches. It is hard to find watches small enough! This watch has a 6 inch fit, fitting my arm with a little wiggle room. It has spring sides for ease of putting it on, but won't allow for stretch or adjustment. Therefore, it will be tight on a standard 7 inch wrist. I am delighted with my purchase, but was hesitant to buy based on unclear size. I wanted to clarify for you the actual size to expect. I included a pic from the top and bottom of watch on my wrist, hoping to demonstrate the snug size on a tiny arm. It's a beautiful watch with unique style, and fit.
