    I'm 5"11, 195 pounds and love a 36mm Datejust. Very classy and comfortable. For a sporty watch I prefer a little bigger, but for dressy watch I like the elegance of a small watch.

    I’m 6’ but only have a 6.2” wrist. All my watches are under 40mm and the best fit for me is my 38mm Aqua Terra. When choosing an Explorer 1, I went for the 36mm option and it looks great on my wrist. I could’ve worn the 40mm but going a bit smaller was right for me. By the way, it’s worth mentioning that the lug-lug length is important, sometimes more so than case width.

    36 mm is the best. Most watches look to big and people think everyone is looking. So a new Roli at 40 or 41mm is extra bling but too big in my opinion. At 36 mm people who know the will see and be just as pleased. Understatement is cool. I go for vintage all the time 1940s to 1960s, so I wear 33 to 37 mm. Omega, Universal, Certina or Dugena and you can get a nice piece and keep 2/3 of the money that a Datejust Roli will set you back

    My mom owns presidential day date that she got from a friend that owed her money, she doesn’t wear it, however the problem is the watch is on the smaller side, it’s smaller then 36mm. I’m not sure as a male it would suite me wearing, would feel kinda embarrassed if it were to small, it although it’s a nice time piece.. anybody has dealt with this type of struggle prior? Can a person wear even smaller than 36?

    All this 36mm coping. 41 all the way. You got all these points on the aesthetics however people who are about their money view rolex as an investment that they can flex. Investments you want them to perform well. A 41 will hold value and sell way better than the 36 if you decide to liquidate in the future. Anything 36mm/diamonds/two-tone = watches for women, niche market, harder sell than plain jane rolex 41mm steel.

    whenever I see women in 36mm watches (even 34mm) it always looks off to me, like a woman wearing work boots or something, just doesnt fit the "petite" look I think of associated with feminine. id say 28-31 max for the classic ladies looks, but as far as 41mm holding value, id agree

    I think large watches, anything over 36mm, are ugly and cartoonish. Some people having legitimate different tastes, I’m willing to push out to 40 mm for agree to disagree sake. I think it is mass hysteria that people think otherwise. Think about it. Large rings are clunky and garish. Large bracelets? Thin ones, ok in isolated cases, but remember thick ones are called manacles. Why would big watches be different? Unless your arms are 10 feet long and you need to read the time from a great distance, it makes no sense. Which is the reason why fundamentally it looks stupid. You don’t need a watch face that large. Since most of the time in the history or watches they have been smaller, even when making watches larger would be easier to produce, i predict most larger watches will decrease in value once people get back to the median and insanity breaks out somewhere else.
