Does anyone else have tiny wrists?

Mine are scrawny in the extreme, and as a result it's hard to find bracelets that don't slip down/fall off altogether. Also, watches have to be done up to the very last hole, and even then that's usually too big. Confused

Anywhere that caters particularly for the wee of bone?

mine are 13-14cm i get watches with metal straps and have links taken out but tbh i dont wear watched or bracelets as i have eczema and they irritate my skin.

I have a Skagen watch and you can make it shorter by sliding the clasp further up the strap so there is no need to have links removed (second pic in link).

Yup, ridiculously skinny wrists and ankles. But podgy upper arms and thighs. I've just measured my wrists - 14 and 1/2 cms.

If a strap of a watch is still too big on the last hole, I take them to places like Cleggs and they put an extra hole in for free. Metal ones I have to have links taken out of. 'Posh' bracelets I have to buy alterable ones but usually I get jewellery on the high street. Mango's seem to come up small.
