I'm no expert, but what about trying one of these things:

I use hand grippers and have noticed considerable changes. They come in increasing strenghts. It doesn't make your wrist grow though, nothing will because there are no muscles there and the circumference of your wrist is mostly determined by your forearm bones. If you're a skinny dude you're a skinny dude. If you want to be serious about it, you'll need more than a gripper though.

Completely forgot!

Rope climbs. Did them yesteday. I was about to puke from my hangover, so only managed about 30ft. But from now on, those are going into my routine twice weekly. Not using legs for extra leverage will isolate the exercise to your forearms as well.

Captains of Crush grippers.

From someone who has played tennis for 21 years I can tell you that it's a good sport for building bigger forearms and stronger wrists (not biceps though). The only issue is that if you are one handed, i.e., one handed back-hand then your dominant arm will be a bit bigger. Great example is Nadal:

I will add that a farmer's carry of a fat dumbbell (or buckets filled with crushed concrete) will bulk up your forearms and hands in a hurry.
