The diver's watch suitable for small wrists!

Mainly a customer of Swiss watchmakers such as Tudor and Rolex, this didn't stop me from taking the plunge and buying this Swiss diver's watch... from a French brand: the 5303-3 by Serica. Not being Parisian (only boutique), and although I've always had a positive attitude towards the brand, it was with some trepidation that I ordered online without being able to try the watch on first (fortunately, the 14-day return period reassured me). Several questions were running through my mind: * Would the real quality be there? * Would the watch fit my small 14.2 cm wrist? * Was the mesh bracelet a good aesthetic choice? Once I received the watch and placed it on my wrist... the magic happened immediately. A "small" 39 mm, perfectly suited to slim wrists. The ceramic/steel bezel, in a superb sea green shade, is simply splendid, and its click is a true delight to the ears. The dial, meanwhile, appears black at first glance, but reveals a subtle and deep midnight blue under certain lights. It's discreet and truly successful. And the mesh bracelet? I was skeptical, and that's one of the reasons I hesitated to take the plunge. But once I had the watch in my hands, all my doubts vanished. The diver's case/link bracelet combo works wonderfully. It reinforces the piece's uniqueness and clearly sets it apart from other divers on the market. The only small point that could be improved, in my opinion, is the bracelet attachment, which isn't easy. Finally, the addition of this watch to my collection was a wonderful discovery, not to say a revelation. Serica is stronger than you! (Video game fans will know the reference).
