Case is 41mm, bezel is 42mm, lugs are 51.8mm. Bracelet is 22mm X 5mm. I would think a 45mm Helson would be too big. I have pretty "standard" wrists (6.75"), and in the newer (2017 and later) models, I prefer the 41mm model over the 38mm model. In the older models (before 2007), I prefer the 38.5mm over the 41.5mm. A couple of other considerations: (1) The dial color you get affects the perceived size.The IWC Mark XX measures 40mm in diameter x 10.8mm in thickness x 49mm lug-to-lug. Available with matte black, sunburst blue, and sunburst green dial. Stainless steel case has 100m water resistance. Caliber 32111 runs at 28,800 bph with 5-day power reserve. Available now: MSRP $5,250 on strap, $6,150 on bracelet.
Correlation between your wrist and the size of the watch. Convert wrist size into mm. Divide total wrist size in mm by the size of the watch (ex. 7 inch wrist and a 38 mm watch = 178mm divided by 38mm= Ratio of 4.7) An acceptable ratio falls between 4.0 and 5.0. Anything below 4.0 is too big and anything above 5 is too small.
