The movement, in plain words

Watchdives lists the Japan VH31 for the WD1965. It is quartz, run by a battery.

How it sits on your wrist

Set your wrist circumference to compare the 37 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 66% of that estimated width. The lug span ends 5.3 mm inside each model edge.

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