Raymond Weil Freelancer GMT 40.5mm

How it wears

Wears true to its 40.5 mm case size

Raymond Weil Freelancer GMT 40.5mm measures 48.35 mm lug-to-lug on a 40.5 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.19 against a database median of 1.18. That span is longer than 70% of the 8,093 watches in this database.

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 48.35 mm (1.90 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 9.7 mm thick it is on the slim side, thinner than 85% of the watches with a listed thickness.
