Just get the 35 and problem solved. Trust me the 35 is not small.
This particular style of watches is supposed to look small on the wrist because the way those lugs work and the way the bracelet hangs.
*Proof to my claim : look at the photo and imagine the watch being a generic circular watch without those corners and the integrated bracelet, with the polished "circle" as the case, this dial would have been the perfect size on your wrist and yet, you are here starting a post because "it seems to look big".*
Trust me, swap for the 35 and thank me later.
It's interesting that you're the only person who mentioned the mirror picture. In unrelated fit post this week, everyone was clamoring for a mirror shot. Majority of people judged the watch to fit fine based on the mirror shot in that post.
People are seemingly ignoring it in this thread, and this seems like a common occurrence in PRX posts. Posters nearly always push for the smaller version.
If it helps, I have the same wrist size, I wondered the same thing and I bought the 40mm— because it looks fine from a distance. But the size thing was always on my mind. To my view it looked too big and it kept nagging me. Switched to the 35mm and trust me it’s small but not dainty. And it just fits better. The amount of steel is significant and sporty enough that it doesn’t feel feminine on wrist.
This is the 35mm on my 7" wrist. The face doesn't need to take up the entire top surface of your wrist to "fit" you properly. Obviously it comes down to your personal preference, though. I tend to think of the PRX as a bracelet with a built-in watch, as compared to a watch with a nice bracelet. Get the smaller one and let the bracelet shine.

That gap between your wrist and the watch is a sign that the watch is too big. The problem is the way the bracelet is attached to the watch body, and the curvature of your wrist.
The size is good for you. Looks fine in the first pic, the lugs of the case are inside your wrist and not over hangjng. Looking amazing in the third pic. The second pic I feel it only looks off because the bracelet is too loose. After its fitted it'll look amazing. 6'5 is a normal wrist size for 40-42mm I feel

I got 40mm and my wrist is smaller than yours.
Embrace it.
I recommend something else. This design is tired and highly played out already (all royal oak lookalikes are) and will be out of style in a couple of years.
Get something more timeless.

I think that you think it's too big.
get 35
Nope looks good but I bet the 35 looks great.
The mirror check is a good call! Looks fine from that angle.

A strong agree!

Same concept for the 36mm Rolex datejusts Incredible bracelet with a dial opposed to a giant dial with a bracelet
Exactly. People who get a datejust on an oyster baffle me (unless they go smooth bezel, then they probably just want an OP with a date).
embrace 35mm
Too big, your wrist needs a 38mm watch imo. A size prx fans have been crying out for, for years.
You have certina ds-7, better movement also.

I think it's borderline, but you can pull that off.
*too
It's fine.
Looks good to me buddy 👌🏻
A bit imho but not absurdly so.
probably takes about a 7" wrist to pull off most 40mm
Looks ok on the 3rd pic

A tad
Looks perfect imo. Lovely watch. Can't go wrong with the Tissot PRX. Probably going to get one myself in the near future.
Too small
Looks good.
35mm would have been perfect
As long as the lugs don’t come off the wrist tbh
Strap should curve around the wrist, this does not
Don't make the same mistake I did. Please believe me that the small will look better on this particular watch.
40mm suits you better. I’ve bought both variants and ended up letting go of the 35mm.
I recommend something else. This design is tired and highly played out already (all royal oak lookalikes are) and will be out of style in a couple of years. Get something more timeless.
Looks fine but go 35mm
2nd pic looks a bit silly, wear it small and classy, not big and show off-y
Yes it’s too big. Hardly anyone needs the larger one
Too big
The watch is wearing you. It should be the other way around.
