Mako Chronograph Solar 42.8mm

How it wears

Wears smaller than its 42.8 mm case suggests

Orient Mako Chronograph Solar 42.8mm measures 48.1 mm lug-to-lug on a 42.8 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.12 against a database median of 1.18. That span is longer than 69% of the 8,010 watches in this database and longer than 68% of the 292 Orient watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 54 mm (2.13 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 65 mm (2.56 in) it starts to look compact. Below 48.1 mm (1.89 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 13.1 mm thick it sits within the typical range, thicker than 68% of the watches with a listed thickness.
