Giorgio Piola G5 48mm

How it wears

Wears true to its 48 mm case size

Giorgio Piola G5 48mm measures 57 mm lug-to-lug on a 48 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.19 against a database median of 1.18. That span is longer than 99% of the 8,093 watches in this database.

A flat wrist width of 64 mm (2.52 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 76 mm (2.99 in) it starts to look compact. Below 57 mm (2.24 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 15 mm thick it is on the thicker side, thicker than 93% of the watches with a listed thickness.
