Bradley Taylor Ardea 37.8mm

How it wears

Wears larger than its 37.8 mm case suggests

Bradley Taylor Ardea 37.8mm measures 46.4 mm lug-to-lug on a 37.8 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.23 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 58% of the 8,093 watches in this database.

A flat wrist width of 52 mm (2.05 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 62 mm (2.44 in) it starts to look compact. Below 46.4 mm (1.83 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.

At 10.9 mm thick it sits within the typical range, thicker than 25% of the watches with a listed thickness.
