Cabriolet 24.2mm

How it wears

Wears larger than its 24.2 mm case suggests

Universal Genève Cabriolet 24.2mm measures 45 mm lug-to-lug on a 24.2 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.86 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 70% of the 7,413 watches in this database and shorter than 71% of the 24 Universal Genève watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 50 mm (1.97 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 60 mm (2.36 in) it starts to look compact. Below 45 mm (1.77 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 8 mm thick it is on the slim side, thinner than 95% of the watches with a listed thickness.
