The movement, in plain words

Watchdives lists the Miyota 90S5 or 9015 for the WD6610. It is an automatic, so wearing it winds it.

On your wrist37 mm across, 10.5 mm thick, on a wrist your size

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 5.1 mm inside each model edge.

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