1893 Johannes Dürrstein Edition Chronograph 42mm

How it wears

Wears larger than its 42 mm case suggests

Union Glashütte 1893 Johannes Dürrstein Edition Chronograph 42mm measures 50.72 mm lug-to-lug on a 42 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.21 against a database median of 1.18. That span is longer than 89% of the 7,421 watches in this database and longer than 73% of the 73 Union Glashütte watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 57 mm (2.24 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 68 mm (2.68 in) it starts to look compact. Below 50.72 mm (2.00 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 14.2 mm thick it is on the thicker side, thicker than 84% of the watches with a listed thickness.
