Wrist Coverage Percent
Lug-to-lug watch span as a percentage of wearer wrist width.
Description
Lug-to-lug watch span as a percentage of wearer wrist width.
Wrist Coverage Percent: Lug-to-lug watch span as a percentage of wearer wrist width.
When to use Wrist Coverage Percent
Use this horology calculation to interpret a stated watch, clock, timing-machine, water-resistance, alarm, or historical respiratory-timing quantity under its defined convention.
- Lug To Lug Millimeters (mm)
- Required number input.
- Wrist Width Millimeters (mm)
- Required number input.
How Wrist Coverage Percent works
Lug-to-lug watch span as a percentage of wearer wrist width. The tool evaluates the supplied inputs together and returns the named outputs below; it does not infer omitted operating conditions or change the units shown.1
- Coverage Percent (percent)
- The resulting coverage percent returned as a number.
Limitations and assumptions
- Mechanical-watch amplitude and beat measurements depend on lift angle, position, state of wind, movement condition, instrument setup, and elapsed sampling. ATM markings are test-pressure classifications rather than literal safe diving depths.
- Use finite inputs in the displayed units and preserve more precision than the final presentation requires. Independently verify safety-critical, financial, compliance, or production decisions.
Alternative or Complementary approaches
Confirm movement specifications and measure in multiple positions and power states; follow the manufacturer's water-resistance guidance and obtain pressure testing after case service.
