Hello Patrick;

Wow, thank you very much for posting this chart. This is perfect for me because I don't really know very much about how watches are sized and this will be a tremendous help to me when looking at watches. So many people selling watches use so many different ways of measuring these things that sometimes I think I'm going to go mad trying to figure out which is which when it comes to sizes.

Thanks again Patrick, I will most certainly be able to make use of this. Especially with crystal sizes.

Thanks Patrick, that will be very helpful.

Here are instructions and a chart specifically for crystals...

That chart is also shown below, I have it printed on card stock by my crystal cabinet.

A conversion chart is also on page 34 of the "Fat book" on Watches, by Shugart et. al. Check it out.

I gave Lindell an improved version of this chart which actually shows where the different size cases are located in the chart from 1/0 all the way up to size 20. I left it up to him to decide the best location for it on the web site. Look for it soon.....
