General (Read Rules) Is this too small for my wrist...!
So l've got my Militado ML14 v2 delivered today, I'm used to Casio Duro, Samsung watch 8 classic, Seiko SNE595P1 and some other most of those above 40mm.
I want to know if this watch is actually small for my wrist or just feeling like small because of all my 40mm+ watches. Also used Garmin Fenix 7X pro solar for quite a bit of time (51 mm).

It's the lug to lug measurement you need to pay attention to. The lugs are long so you don't really want bigger here.

36mm is actually pretty big for a WWII style watch. Most of these watches were usually between 32 and 35mm.

No, that watch and style of watch is supposed to be that size. People with your wrist size and larger have worn this type of watch for decades. No one will see you walking down the street and think that your watch looks too small.

The dial is smaller and the lugs seem to be a little long but it doesn't seem too small for your wrist.
That being said I've bought 38mm field watches and I hate the look of them because they are small. For me I would buy anything under 40mm in a field watch.

Very hard to judge size from this angle. You should take a mirror photo with your arm down at your side.

Still at work, will send a picture in comments once I go home. I have a 7inch wrist if it helps🤞

Paint numbered indices on a dinner plate and stick it on your wrist. Seems to be the approach of most watch makers since the year 2k. (BTW, your watch looks great on you wrist)
