MB&F Horological Machine HM3 Frog 48.3mm
36.SVL.BU
How it wears
Wears smaller than its 48.3 mm case suggests
MB&F Horological Machine HM3 Frog 48.3mm measures 52.7 mm lug-to-lug on a 48.3 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.09 against a database median of 1.18. That span is longer than 96% of the 8,010 watches in this database and longer than 65% of the 31 MB&F watches listed.
A flat wrist width of 59 mm (2.32 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 71 mm (2.80 in) it starts to look compact. Below 52.7 mm (2.07 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.

Fit reference
Uses nearly the full wrist width; trying the watch on is strongly recommended.
