Formex Essence Space Glacier 39mm

How it wears

Wears larger than its 39 mm case suggests

Formex Essence Space Glacier 39mm measures 49 mm lug-to-lug on a 39 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.26 against a database median of 1.18. That span is longer than 74% of the 8,093 watches in this database and longer than 95% of the 65 Formex watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 55 mm (2.17 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 66 mm (2.60 in) it starts to look compact. Below 49 mm (1.93 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 mm thick it is on the slim side, thinner than 82% of the watches with a listed thickness.
