DS-2 Lady 27.5mm

How it wears

Wears smaller than its 27.5 mm case suggests

Certina DS-2 Lady 27.5mm measures 25.8 mm lug-to-lug on a 27.5 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 0.94 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 100% of the 7,421 watches in this database and shorter than 87% of the 52 Certina watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 29 mm (1.14 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 35 mm (1.38 in) it starts to look compact. Below 25.8 mm (1.02 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 8.6 mm thick it is on the slim side, thinner than 92% of the watches with a listed thickness.
