As much as we love unusual cases, day to day wear can be taxing on those with even the most robust of wrists. For daily wear, it can be preferable to find a watch that disappears on the wrist until it\u2019s needed. That means something relatively thin and likely under 40mm in diameter. This is a watch that slips under a shirt cuff without needing to be coaxed. To that end, we\u2019re looking at sub 40mm watches in this edition of The Cultivated Wrist.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rolex Datejust<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"StockX_Image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The newest Datejusts may have moved to 41mm in diameter, but you don\u2019t have to look hard for late models that dip under 40mm. The Datejust is perhaps the penultimate dress watch, emerging from Rolex in the mid 40\u2019s, and only subtly evolving in the subsequent decades. It helps that you can configure the watch in a huge variety of options, from dial color, to case metal, and even bezel texture can be had in fluted or polished varieties. Being a Rolex, it\u2019s a watch that\u2019ll last through any passing trends in style. A user has this example listed with an Ask of $6,170<\/a>.

Omega Globemaster<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

When Omega launched their Constellation line of watches in 1952, it did so with a range of dial configurations, but one feature, in particular, would go on to define the watch for generations to come: the pie pan dial. The dial, so named for the way it angles toward the bezel around the hour markers, went on hiatus during the late 80\u2019s and 90\u2019s (and oughts) but came back with the introduction of the Globemaster in 2015. It\u2019s a throwback that\u2019s never gone out of style and we\u2019re happy to see it back in Omega\u2019s line up. This example with blue dial has an Ask listed at $4,800<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"StockX_Image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Jaeger-LeCoultre has mastered the dress watch in their 184 years of existence, and that\u2019s reflected in their Master collection. At 39mm in diameter and just 7.5mm in thickness, the Ultra Thin hits all the right notes. We love the clean dial and applied hour makers as well. Inside beats JLC\u2019s own caliber 896, which is visible through an exhibition caseback. There\u2019s an Ask of $5,300 on this example<\/a>, and it\u2019s the only dress watch you\u2019d ever need. <\/span><\/p>\n

Nomos Metro<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"StockX_Image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Those with even a passing interest in watches will be well aware of the German brand Nomos, which has come to represent one of the greatest values in proper watchmaking. Oh, and they\u2019ve won multiple awards for their striking, minimal designs. So why are they considered a great value? It\u2019s not just because of their designs, inside you\u2019ll find truly in-house calibers built alongside some the powerhouse manufacturers in Glashutte. We love the Metro for its subtle dashes of color (see the 3, 9, and 12 hour markers) and the subdial at 6 with a bright red running seconds hand. There\u2019s an Ask of $4,000 on this Metro with <\/a>grey dial. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
