I have just started to look at a Rolex sport watch to replace my Cartier.
I have small wrists and therefore have a question to those in the know.
Out of the see dweller, submariner, GMT etc, which is the smallest / thinnest watch?

The 16600 Seadweller is 40mm diameter as is the 116710LN GMT and the 14060M/16610 Submariners. The new 116600 Deep Sea Seadweller is 44mm diameter. In terms of depth (this is guesswork,I'm on the beachcool ), it'll be Deep Sea, followed by Seadweller, followed by GMT/Sub-Date followed by 14060M Sub.

The regular Sports series at 40mm, are considered a regular size watch these days. Try a few on, and see what you think....

Cheers Dominic, I didn't expect you to be about today.
If you are on the beach man, why are you bothering with PH laugh
As I am on the country, the chances of all of them in the same shop is rare. I may well have to brave the smoke to see more.

How big is the mid size Yatchmaster (I guess it counts as a sports watch)?

I have skinny wrists and wear a 14060 Sub - has all the links taken out and looks and sits just perfect.

I did have a Panerai and that just looked plain daft tbh - nice watch but watches that size just don't look right on skinny wrists.
