Fit on 6–7 in wrists (6.5 in reference)
Fit: Moderate risk on a 6.5 in wrist. The scored length is 45 mm from tip to tip, from Fratello (third-party). Hermès lists a lug-to-lug height of 41 mm on its own page. Thickness is unpublished, so it doesn’t move the result.
The flat top of the wrist (usable span) is the width a watch can sit on without its lugs hanging over the edge.

| 6.0 in (152 mm) | 45 mm (third-party) | Unpublished | High risk: 45 mm is past the flat top of a 6 in wrist (about 44.6 mm). |
| 6.5 in (165 mm) — reference | 45 mm (third-party) | Unpublished | Moderate risk: 45 mm is close to the flat top of a 6.5 in wrist (about 48.3 mm). |
| 7.0 in (178 mm) | 45 mm (third-party) | Unpublished | Low risk: 45 mm is under 90% of the flat top of a 7 in wrist (about 52.1 mm). |
