The movementPT5000, in plain words

The movement, in plain words

Thorn lists the PT5000 for the T009. It is an automatic, so wearing it winds it.

On your wrist38 mm across, 13 mm thick, on a wrist your size

How it sits on your wrist

Set your wrist circumference to compare the 38 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 68% of that estimated width. The lug span ends 5.2 mm inside each model edge.

Wrap a strip of paper round your wrist just below the bone, mark where it meets and measure it.
