Navigating the Conflicting Reviews on the Watch
Let me preface by saying that I don’t typically write reviews, in fact this is the first. A lot of people say that, but there’s a point to it. I saw a lot of the reviews and many people were upset with the size of the watch, even being advertised as petite. The quality is great, it’s comfortable—I mean I don’t have complaints, and it’s very cheap for how good it works. But what about the size? I noticed that nobody mentioned the the actual measurement of their wrist, so when looking through the product reviews and pictures, it was kind of hard to tell if the complaints were legitimate or not. My wrist, measured normally is literally 6 inches. That puts me just above the lower-end 5.9 inch range of who this watch is supposed to be able to fit. The watch does not stretch from 5.9 inches to 7. whatever it is that is advertised for the highest end of the range. Instead it sits, I measured at just under that 7 inch number, so that those with a 7 inch wrist would find the watch well-fitting right out of the box. I saw a review from someone saying that they purchased the watch for their small child and were disappointed by the looseness. Others, including her, were upset that the watch was “not adjustable.” I took a look at the images by the company, and all things considered, especially since I had been looking for a dainty-looking watch very similar to this one, I purchased it.I with some tools my dad had watched a YouTube video and literally removed four links for it to be a comfortable fit, and bring it down to 6, maybe 6.1/6.2 inches for the space. It wasn’t difficult. It required a little bit of patience since the pieces are quite small. If you’re used to things like sewing or your fingers are nimble that helps. But, obviously, you don’t have to do it yourself. I just wanted to see for myself. I plan to take it to someone to close it back up, since, again, it requires some patience to be able to do that, but I can at least expect that it will be a little cheaper seeing as I’ve done most of the work.I know what it’s like to not have things fit—small waist, small wrist, etc. so I hope that this helps someone, especially when the reviews here are really confusing and seemingly contradictory given that no one has included any real measurements to be able to go off of. I think it’s a worthwhile purchase. It’s a very pretty watch and what I was looking for when I was trying to find a vintage-esque watch. It reads well if you can tell the time (it doesn’t have the tiny minute marks though), and I’m just pleased overall. For what I was expecting to pay for a watch, this definitely is value for your dollar.Anyways, time will tell with the rest of it (no pun intended). I’ll edit once I have the watch back and put together, though I don’t expect it to be a hassle, and I don’t see the watch being a problem in any other sense—that is, in terms of durability, but will update if that changes.Edit: I asked my dad to take it to the watch store for me. As far as I can tell, it was easy to put back together. I have it on my wrist as I write this, and no complaints. Make sure if you do this, you leave enough space for it to sit on your wrist comfortably. The price paid for the repair: $26.70. I think very fair for the watch. It’s definitely on the cheaper end for what it’s worth. The best to you guys.

Pretty dainty watch
Pretty watch that looks dainty and elegant. Easy to use and keeps time well. Comfortable on my wrist, though I had to get a large when I normally need a medium. The elastic sometimes snags on my hair but usually its fine. Overall good bang for your buck.

Stylish but Small: A Sleek, Feminine Watch Option
I ordered the smallest size of this watch, and while the band width is quite narrow and the fit is snug, the overall design is sleek. The face numbers are large and easy to read, giving it a more bracelet-like aesthetic than a traditional watch. As for the gold tone, it’s still too soon to comment on any potential tarnishing, but so far it looks good. Overall, it’s a decent product, though if you're looking for a larger, more feminine style, you might want to consider a different option.

Nice and easy to read
This is a very nice watch for the price, I have a small wrist and this fit just fine, if your wrist is much more then 6 inches, I would advise the med.

Buy this watch!
Absolutely obsessed with this watch! I have tiny wrist and this watch fits perfectly. It has some stretch to it which is also nice. The gold coloring is beautiful and matches with the rest of my gold jewelry perfectly.

Runs small. Nice inexpensive watch
The media could not be loaded. I like stretchy watches so that I don't have to buckle them, but I really don't like them tight. I first bought this in a medium based on others' reviews. But it felt tight so I ordered the large. My wrist is exactly six and a half inches. The large fits perfectly, which for me means it can spin on my wrist and not have to stretch at all.
