I have a 7 inch wrist and I’m wearing an Hamilton LL Bean field watch and I’m pretty sure it’s 33mm

Why do you quote your wrist size in inches if you understand millimetres and the size of the watch in mm?
How do you relate the 2? I see this often on the sub
Because comparing circumference to diameter size generally doesn't translate well regardless of unit. And also because watchmakers don't give specs in imperial units. We do the same thing in England and we already use a mix of metric and imperial.
