Seiko Panda Chronograph (HHK) 43mm

How it wears

Wears smaller than its 43 mm case suggests

Seiko Panda Chronograph (HHK) 43mm measures 44.1 mm lug-to-lug on a 43 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.03 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 78% of the 8,093 watches in this database and shorter than 87% of the 405 Seiko watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 49 mm (1.93 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 59 mm (2.32 in) it starts to look compact. Below 44.1 mm (1.74 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 14.6 mm thick it is on the thicker side, thicker than 90% of the watches with a listed thickness.
