Runaway 38mm

How it wears

Wears larger than its 38 mm case suggests

Merci Instruments x Tracksmith Runaway 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 7,413 watches in this database.

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 12 mm thick it sits within the typical range, thicker than 45% of the watches with a listed thickness.
