The movementPT5000, in plain words
The movement, in plain words
Proxima lists the PT5000 for the PX1697. It is an automatic, so wearing it winds it.
On your wrist39 mm across, on a wrist your size
How it sits on your wrist
Set your wrist circumference to compare the 39 mm case with a schematic wrist. The ellipse estimates wrist width and shape. It cannot predict your fit.
17.0 cm6.7 in around
This wrist model is about 56 mm across. The case spans 70% of that estimated width. The lug span ends 5.1 mm inside each model edge. Thickness is unknown, so no case height is drawn.
Wrap a strip of paper round your wrist just below the bone, mark where it meets and measure it.

From reviews1 report
Reviewer describes compact wear, consistent bezel torque and little lateral play. Bracelet uses screw links, quick release and an adjustable milled clasp. Text gives a thickness range rather than a measured figure.
