Naoya Hida & Co. Type 5A 26mm

How it wears

Wears larger than its 26 mm case suggests

Naoya Hida & Co. Type 5A 26mm measures 43.5 mm lug-to-lug on a 26 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.67 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 82% of the 8,093 watches in this database.

A flat wrist width of 49 mm (1.93 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 58 mm (2.28 in) it starts to look compact. Below 43.5 mm (1.71 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 9.1 mm thick it is on the slim side, thinner than 88% of the watches with a listed thickness.
