Roadster Large 38mm
Roadster Large 2025
How it wears
Wears larger than its 38 mm case suggests
Cartier Roadster Large 38mm measures 47 mm lug-to-lug on a 38 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.24 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 47% of the 7,421 watches in this database and shorter than 14% of the 196 Cartier watches listed.
A flat wrist width of 53 mm (2.09 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 63 mm (2.48 in) it starts to look compact. Below 47 mm (1.85 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 10.06 mm thick it is on the slim side, thinner than 84% of the watches with a listed thickness.
