Next, decide on a case size that\u2019s suitable for your wrist. A case diameter of 34mm-38mm is appropriate for individuals with a wrist measurement of 6 inches; 39mm-42mm is for individuals with a 7-7.5 inches wrist size, and 44mm-47mm is for those measuring 8 inches and more.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px; text-align: justify;\">Typically, watch cases that are 38mm and below are women\u2019s size watches. Men\u2019s size watches, on the other hand, fall between 38mm-46mm.<\/p>\n<table style=\"height: 170px; margin-left: 40px;\" width=\"713\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding-left: 40px;\" width=\"102\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding-left: 40px;\" width=\"93\"><span style=\"color: #006699;\"><strong>Wrist Size<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding-left: 40px;\" width=\"169\"><span style=\"color: #006699;\"><strong>Case Diameter<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding-left: 40px;\" width=\"169\"><span style=\"color: #006699;\"><strong>Strap Sizing<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">\n<td style=\"padding-left: 40px;\" width=\"102\"><strong>Small<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding-left: 40px;\" width=\"93\">6\u201d<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding-left: 40px;\" width=\"169\">34mm \u2013 38mm<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding-left: 40px;\" width=\"169\">120\/70mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">\n<td style=\"padding-left: 40px;\" width=\"102\"><strong>Average<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding-left: 40px;\" width=\"93\">7\u201d \u2013 7.5\u201d<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding-left: 40px;\" width=\"169\">39mm &#8211; 42mm<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding-left: 40px;\" width=\"169\">130\/80mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">\n<td style=\"padding-left: 40px;\" width=\"102\"><strong>Large<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding-left: 40px;\" width=\"93\">8 &gt;<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding-left: 40px;\" width=\"169\">44mm &#8211; 47mm<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding-left: 40px;\" width=\"169\">140\/85mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<\/table>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">&lt;&gt;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 80px; text-align: center;\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/search\/?q=gmt+master\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-10636 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/thewatchclub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/5T4A6642.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"547\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/thewatchclub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/5T4A6642.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/thewatchclub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/5T4A6642-300x205.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/thewatchclub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/5T4A6642-768x525.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center; padding-left: 80px;\"><em>Know your wrist size before you buy. | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/search\/?q=gmt+master\">Rolex GMT-Master II<\/a> Rootbeer &amp; Sprite<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/watches\/rolex\/gmtmaster\/\"><strong>Shop Rolex GMT-Master II Watches<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 80px; text-align: justify;\">Now, let\u2019s go to strap sizing.
