Oceanographer Devil Diver GMT 41mm

How it wears

Wears smaller than its 41 mm case suggests

Bulova Oceanographer Devil Diver GMT 41mm measures 43 mm lug-to-lug on a 41 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.05 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 83% of the 7,413 watches in this database and shorter than 33% of the 9 Bulova watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 48 mm (1.89 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 58 mm (2.28 in) it starts to look compact. Below 43 mm (1.69 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 14.7 mm thick it is on the thicker side, thicker than 89% of the watches with a listed thickness.
