John Shaeffer Repeater Archive Case 29.5mm
John Shaeffer Archive Case No. 6
How it wears
Wears smaller than its 29.5 mm case suggests
Audemars Piguet John Shaeffer Repeater Archive Case 29.5mm measures 32 mm lug-to-lug on a 29.5 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.08 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 98% of the 7,413 watches in this database and shorter than 96% of the 68 Audemars Piguet watches listed.
A flat wrist width of 36 mm (1.42 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 43 mm (1.69 in) it starts to look compact. Below 32 mm (1.26 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.
