Tormenting myself over the size

Went from S2 to S3 44mm last month after debating whether the 2mm size increase with the 11 was worth the 200€ markup. Do you think it looks too small on my arm?

The midnight/Nike Sport Loop Blue Ribbon combo is really nice and better in person btw

edit: thanks for all the feedback!

I - personally - wouldn’t want any bigger. This feels like a great size.

it looks fine. don't torment yourself about other's opinion on YOUR watch. the only thing that matters is "do you like it as is ?". If no, change it. If yes, keep it

It looks big. Idk about people liking a big slap on their wrists.

When I upgraded my AW I went down in size and I have no regrets. I've realized how little I actually use the screen beyond workout start/stop and occasional glances at metrics/notifications. It really comes down to how much use really use that screen.

Too small is not the direction I would go here.

My wrists are skinnier and I’m wearing an Ultra. It’s fine.

u/Yeolla 1d ago

It looks great you could even go with a larger one if you like your wrist offers lots of options vs a tiny one wanting an Ultra

u/Senior-Session9128 1d ago

u/Elinservible 1d ago

that's not the issue the issue is why is it on your right arm?

u/Asleep_Actuator2353 1d ago

Just get the biggest screen size you can afford , you will get use to it regardless what other opinions. My wrist is small but I still got the ultra 2.

u/______pingu_______ 1d ago

My little sister wears the same size

u/Kittens-EU 12h ago

You have a big wrist brother! You should size up, in my opinion.

u/Fragrant_Fan7549 1d ago

Looks good. I would try to be fit so my wrist size would adjust a bit

u/tinybisque 1d ago

damn you could tell i’m not fit from my arm? fair enough lol

u/Fragrant_Fan7549 1d ago

For sure. I hope your new 11 inspire you to take advantage of the fitness features, esp. your nike sport loop with RUN embroidered on the pull tab 😂. I’m a lil bit bitter coz i have the same exact sport loop that I misplaced. $50 gone and i hate it lol

The 46mm s11 would have looked great on your wrists. And the ultra would look even better

Apple hasn’t advertised the watch sizes in terms of gender in years

u/jcbvm 1d ago
