Living large doesn’t always mean you have to rock an oversized wristwatch.
In fact, the prevailing trend of chunky, oversized watches is seeing some backlash with the reemergence of smaller watch faces that harken back to a simpler time.
A number of watch brands have been introducing small faces to the market, Tudor, IWC and Tom Ford among them. Many come in traditional rounded cases, but small sizing lends itself to rectangular cases as well.
Here, six handsome “small watches” that prove size isn’t everything.
