Top 5 August Berg 32mm Watches

In 2021, we saw the 40mm-size watches dominate the sales, covering a large portion of the total watches sold. However, the 32mm watches are challenging this trend as these smaller timepieces continue catching the attention of many consumers, specifically women.

August Berg is a sustainable luxury timepiece brand, identifiable by its iconic single-domed Sapphire Crystal dial window, delivering a striking and unparalleled view into the dial with its concave shape.

A standard size of a classic, everyday watch ranges from 39mm to 42mm. So, exactly why are 32mm watches getting back popular? A downsizing trend has descended in the world of high-end/luxury watches among consumers for several reasons: Comfort is apparently the top factor. Another debatable reason is aesthetic – large watches are prone to have more empty spaces on both the case and dial compared to smaller watches. The list goes on with more benefits wearing smaller case watch.

What are 32mm watches?

32mm watches have smaller watch faces and it refers to the circumference of the watch dial. This could be the perfect size for the wrist, as it is not too big or small, especially if the wearer has small to average wrist size. Smaller watches require less materials, hence, they are more affordable than large watches.  

August Berg 32mm watches are new modern vintage and classic Danish-designed timepieces by renowned watch designer, Magnus Joergensen. Our watches are designed to be anti-reflective, scratch-resistant, and feature single-dome sapphire crystal glass. With addition of its water resistance of 3-5 ATM, smaller August Berg timepieces are perfect watch for everyday wear.
