Hey all, first post and first watch purchase, though I own a Hamilton diver that was gifted to me years ago.

I really like the look of Cartier tanks and as someone brand new to the hobby who isn't looking to spend so much, I figured the Seiko tanks look quite good too.

My wrists as far as I can tell are 6.5" or a little above, with 6.5" being fairly tight and 6.6-6.7" being a little more lax. Any thoughts on the size?

This is the SWR053 (women's model) which I normally see at $195 USD but regularly goes on sale for about $100 so I pulled the trigger. The other option I was interested in was the SWR049 which I was scared would look too big on my small wrists.

If you all feel this is the right size for me, I'll definitely need to replace the strap as I am not only using the very last hole, I also feel it looks feminine. Any recommendations for another black leather strap would be much appreciated!

Edit: I'm trying to take less shitty pictures but I think something's going on with my camera and also I think imgur is making it look weird too. Here's another shot
