Does the Epix Gen 2 Sapphire Edition 47mm fit your wrist?

Watch Fit Tool

For sports watches, lug-to-lug (L2L) is what matters most — it decides whether a watch overhangs your wrist. Bulky is fine; overhang is not.

Sweet Spot

47mm on a 55mm wrist

Understated Balanced Sweet Spot Bold Overhang ⚠

Across the wrist it works — 4.0mm spare each side — but a tall watch on this wrist. Fine over a sleeve, awkward under one.

On a 55mm wrist the sweet spot is 47–53mm lug to lug. This one is 47mm.

How to Measure

Measure where you wear it, just below the wrist bone. Either of these works — the tool converts between them.

1. Flat width — arm flat on a table, palm up. Measure straight across the top of the wrist, bone to bone, ignoring the curve down the sides.
2. Around — a tape, or a strip of paper marked and held against a ruler, snug the whole way round.

Against one you know

Leather: Attaches at the lugs, so the case back rests on your skin. Thins and softens with wear. Typical figures, not this model’s own.
