Zenshin Small Seconds Automatic 40.5mm

How it wears

Wears larger than its 40.5 mm case suggests

Citizen Zenshin Small Seconds Automatic 40.5mm measures 50 mm lug-to-lug on a 40.5 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.23 against a database median of 1.18. That span is longer than 82% of the 7,413 watches in this database and longer than 83% of the 53 Citizen watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 56 mm (2.20 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 67 mm (2.64 in) it starts to look compact. Below 50 mm (1.97 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 11 mm thick it sits within the typical range, thicker than 26% of the watches with a listed thickness.
