Ball Fireman Victory Ladies 31mm

How it wears

Wears larger than its 31 mm case suggests

Ball Fireman Victory Ladies 31mm measures 39 mm lug-to-lug on a 31 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.26 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 93% of the 8,010 watches in this database and shorter than 98% of the 222 Ball watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 44 mm (1.73 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 52 mm (2.05 in) it starts to look compact. Below 39 mm (1.54 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.

At 10.4 mm thick it is on the slim side, thinner than 79% of the watches with a listed thickness.
