What Apple Watch size should I buy? This is the most common question we have heard in the last years: common, but not so obvious at all. It’s impossible to give a straight answer about the best watch size for women that could help you to choose the right Apple Watch for you.
A good starting point could be your own wrist.
The correct choice depends on the size of a woman’s wrist, as it was your foot or your waist. Like any other accessory that you wear, an Apple Watch and its band have to be so comfortable that you will forget you have them on.
First of all check the lugs (the rings that hold the strap), they don’t have to extend over the size of your wrist. Very easy indeed, but it could be quite difficult to check the correct measure of the distance between one lug and the other one by using a centimeter or something similar. Your are going to buy an Apple Watch, after all, not a shelf!

38-40mm or 42-44mm Apple watch for women: the big question
Last year Forbes published an article titled with not so much imagination: Size Matters: Why Women’s Watches Are Getting Smaller.
The buzzwords indeed seem to be small and pretty. So the obvious choice about Apple Watch size for women with a small and dainty wrist is stock: the 38mm one.
To be honest there is not a clear-cut best watch size for women, because the answer depends above all on personal preferences even if women with small wrists seem to prefer 38mm Apple Watch. In addition choosing the best Apple Watch size that fits a female wrist could also depend on how a woman uses her own Apple Watch.
I mean, for a sporty and everyday life a 42-44mm Apple Watch could be more useful with a longer battery duration and a bigger screen. On the other side 38-40mm size could be suitable with an Apple Watch band for and elegant dinner or an exclusive meeting.
By the way as Tim Cook said in 2014 introducing the first Apple Watch:
It’s the most personal product we’ve ever made…
a device that’s designed to be worn.
