Not just watch bands, fats andntheirndat wrists are ruining watch sizes as well because what looked ok a few decades ago now looks small.

I'm glad I have a cell phone because the only way I can comfortably wear watches is much further up the arm than you're "supposed" to--the average watch head is wide enough to restrict wrist movement. Tell me more about how watches are designed for thin privilege.

Jesus christ... the largest size they make is 8 inches or 200mm... assuming circumference that would be a big fucking wrist... not surprised at all though, some fats I've seen have wrists the size of tree trunks because of all the adipose tissue and fat.

It's not an exercise tool to a lard-ass, it's a fashion statement. A ridiculous, sink-in-the-fat-of-your-wrist fashion statement. Something to brag to their other fatty friends about and REEward themselves with some starbeetus. "I walked over 100 steps today! Hooray for me and muh curves! I deserve a Starbucks! HAES!"

I see someone else is familiar with the phenomenon of FitBit virtue-signaling.

My SO got one today. He's 5'9, 164, and he had to use the smaller band. Holy shit, people are so much fatter than I ever imagined.

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't 8 inches around be about the size of a Coke can or larger? I'm thinking larger.

8.5 is around a can, I just happen to have one around here (beer, not Coke, but they're same size).
