“Dainty”…sheesh. At least say “slim” or “smaller”…dainty just takes the dignity out of this discussion. Try anything under 40mm & stay away from Panerai. 90s Rolex’s are great (Date Just).
I also have slim wrist and OP36 and Exp1 both fit really well
I have a DJ36 and smaller wrists and it’s perfect. I also have a BB58 at 39 and its also perfect. You’ll be surprised what you can wear once you put it on
I’ve worn an OP34 white dial for the last year. It is by far my favorite watch I have owned. I get asked fairly often if it’s vintage, which speaks ti its timeless style. And the thing is built like a tank and super versatile.
Thanks!

You can forget about #7 but otherwise this is a good list

Oh yeah I also have small wrists (haven’t measured but would guess around 6”?) and my Tudor Black Bay 58 fits super well

Panerai luminor due 38mm; Cartier Santos; 36-40mm Rolex’s, pretty much any watch between 36-42.

Very fair, I have 6.5 wrists and can pull off a Gmt
I have sub 6” wrists and there are a few great options out there. For me the case diameter matters less than the lug to lug / height. As long as the lugs done hang past the edges of my wrist, it’s good. (For me, I need to stay under 48mm lug to lug, and if the lugs curve down that’s even better.)
Great to know, thanks!

Lots of good options, and in fact, you can find deals on cool stuff that us larger wrist folks can’t realistically wear, like this: https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=820085

How dainty? Just measure your wrist size, share with the bowl (don’t be embarrassed) , what your budget is, and then the group can give you helpful suggestions.
6.25” (would have measured sooner, but didn’t know that was the important measurement until I saw everyone’s helpful responses), under $6k preferably

So reverso is weird, I have smaller wrists, and the lug to lug on it was huge. I would have had to flip to the medium size.
