Tudor Black Bay 36

How it wears

Wears larger than its 36 mm case suggests

Tudor Black Bay 36 measures 44 mm lug-to-lug on a 36 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.22 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 78% of the 8,054 watches in this database and shorter than 87% of the 52 Tudor 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 mm (1.73 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.
