For a company that has historically kept their product lineup relatively sparse, the Apple Watch represents an entirely new direction for Apple. And rightfully so, the Apple Watch, as a personal fashion item, effectively demands a variety of designs and sizes.

The Apple Watch will launch in two distinct sizes, a 38mm case and a 42mm case. To help users more accurately determine which size is more appropriate for their wrists, Apple has put up a handy Apple Watch sizing guide to help prospective buyers make as informed of a decision as possible.
