I am 6 foot tall (184cm), have 7 inch wrists and 36mm fits me best. Some people are so insecure about themselves that they have to put down others.. fortunately, as adults, we can just ignore those people and do what suits us best.
36 is the way to go. I just got a 36 date just with the mint green dial allocated. Can’t wait to get it! The culture of oversized watches is obnoxious.
Absolute class, love the size. I love smaller watches in general i think it looks more subtle and not as ”in your face” and therefore it signals confidence
Are you saying you’re not trying to flex on the haters?! 😂. I completely agree with you although my approach with my collection is that I have a nice two tone 36mm ref#16233 with a white pyramid dial. Very elegant but not practical for daily use. For my second rolex, I put my name down for a 41 white rolesor date just, fluted, jubilee, slate grey dial. I want it to be my daily and the fact it’s not two tone makes it less in your face. The bigger size makes it easier to see the time at a glance over the 36. More practical for daily use imo. And the demand for 41s is higher so it also makes it a better investment
Up-sizing a Datejust 36 to 41mm is kind of like increasing the size of a classic Porsche 911 or an Eames lounge chair by 10%. It’s not necessary-the original dimensions were part of what made the item a design classic. That’s how I think about this watch: it’s like a beautiful car, or classic piece of furniture, or a perfect stereo system. It’s a wonderful and classic design object that you can make part of your everyday life. To me, the idea of signaling confidence is beside the point. Regardless of wrist size, a larger watch is always going to have the potential to get in the way a little more, be more of a distraction to others, and to feel bulky. In addition, the proportions and individual design elements have changed in a way that isn’t necessarily appealing to everyone.
I love the smaller case. My first was an 80s airking I still think its beautiful and wear it often. The dial and jubilee band are really striking on your watch great purchase
I have a daytone black dial, and a 41mm wimbledone two tone rose gold. I recently purchased a 36mm blue motif and I love how it wears, compared to the other two. Now im looking at downsizing from a 41mm wimbledone down to a 36mm.
The point with wearing a Datejust Jubilee is also the beautiful effect the bracelet has instead of just seeing the pan-sized watch in the 41. Also the fluted bezel on the 41 is just oversized and not proported to the relatively small dial. Jsut is bulky and not timeless in my opinion.
Watch sizes come and go with the fashion of the times - just like tie widths, when men actually wore ties. Skinny ties were classic in the 50s and early 60s and got wider and wider into the 70s, and then narrowed into the 80s, 90s and 2000s. The 36mm Rolex is the classic size that started it all.
I think 36mm is absolutely proper size for dress watch and has very comfortable fitting. I have 7.5" wrists and have both sized Date-just, 41mm and 36mm. Many people says to me that 41mm fits me better but I always prefer to use 36mm. I'm definitely not a man who like other man. 🤔🤔
Beautiful piece, I have large wrists and 36mm looks great on my wrist. This is not a " Woman's Watch" that is just plain silly. I think the 40mm looks less elegant on the wrist.
Perfect fit on you! Very nice acquisition. Congratulations! I have 8” wrists, so 41mm fits me better. It would be great if I tried on a 36mm, and it worked out. Much lighter and more comfortable, I’m sure. May have to look into that. Beautiful dial,also. Keep up the good work.
The 36mm looks great on you. This is the exact DateJust I would get. The fluted bezel and jubilee bracelet wear “bigger” because of the way they catch the light. I have a 39mm Explorer and I love the size on me.
Man don’t worry about it. You love it & that’s all that matters! It looks good on you- the watch size suits your size. A little too blingy for me personally, but sure makes a good complement & contrast to your Sub. Wear in good health!
I’ve got 7.5” wrists and I’ve been obsessively looking at Datejust models and sizes for the past month or so. At this point I’m honestly sold on the 36mm for daily wear. The 41mm isn’t bad looking, but it’s practically the size of a dive watch. Not only that, but the white Rolesor fluted crown sparkles like a disco ball when compared to the steel ones on classic DJs of the past.
36 smooth dial with Oyster bracelet and blue fluted dial is the perfect combination of modern DJ IMO. Jubilee suits also but I feel the Oyster suits better overall . Also the male end links of the oyster will probably make the watch wear more like a 37 or 38 which frankly is the perfect size for most wrists that's not Popeye.
I am buying this for my daughters university graduation. My wife already has a 36 mm datejust bought 15 years ago. Its a gorgeous watch. A guy needs to be slightly built IMO to wear it well. Im 5 11, 180 lbs. 7.75 inch wrist and it looks way too small on me. Just like a big watch looks ridiculous on a small wrist, the opposite is true. It looks amazing for your wrist size.
Your new Datejust 36 looks good on you. The size suits you better than the Sub, and it's more distinctive. I have an 8" wrist, so I prefer a 42 mm & up. Not a set rule, but smaller wrist people look better with a smaller diameter watch size & vice versa.
Congrats!!! Excellent choice, you are going in the right direction. You have your Sub everyday sport watch. Now you have a business/dress watch with your 36mm Date Just. The perfect two watch collection. That's all a man needs. Speaking of 36mm... That's the ONLY proper size for a Date Just or Day Date. Dress/business watch watches SHOULD be a classic size. The Wimbeldon DJ looks even better as a 36mm. There's no need for a 40/41mm disproportionate size. I like this new generation of Date Just in a non-super oyster case design like the previous gen. This one doesn't need to be bulky, the fluted bezel and jubilee speak for itself.
I have a sub and 36mm datejust and enjoy wearing the datejust more. I’ve had it since 1987 and have never thought it felt small. Don’t look back. It’s awesome.
My wrist size is 7.5 inches and I’m wearing Daydate 36mm daily. The largest watch in my collection is Black Bay 58 in 39mm, but 90% of the time 36mm is way to go for me. Congrats with purchase. It’s a beautiful watch.
Same wrist size just about and I personally feel the 41mm looks the best on me. 36mm seems just a bit too small for my liking but to each there own! Either way, can't go wrong with a Rolex!
Same man. I think my BB58 is the perfect watch for me as I prefer sports models, but I just got the call yesterday from my AD on a Datejust 36 Wimbledon and I’m going to pick it up one of these coming days. I think your dress watch SHOULDN’T be bigger than your sports watch. That’s why I’m not interested in the 41. That - and the fact that I wanted the smooth bezel and the smooth bezel looks horrendous on the 41 and amazing on the 36.
Classic for excellent reasons! I have had a 16234 Slate Tapestry Datejust since 1992. Your watch is about as close you can get to mine in 2024. No reason to hate. BTW: I’m 6’2” and 225. I’m build like a linebacker and this watch is perfect. I own other much larger watches from 40-44mm including a Tudor BB Chrono reverse panda that is a beast. You don’t need to wear the same size watch all the time.
You’re absolutely on the money with this video I’ve always thought the datejust looks better in 36 but its a stigma. I think if you want a bigger model stick to the sports models etc. datejust 2 was unpopular for this exact reason. People forget that.
I'd love to have that watch. I have a vintage 1964 Benrus mens dress watch with a hand wind ETA movement. It measures 34 mm dia. x 9.2 mm thick. It is the same case issued to US troops in Vietnam. It is the same watch that Steve McQueen wore in the movie Bullitt. I never feel inadiquate when someone has a larger watch than me.😁
Beautiful watch man, I’ve always wanted the Wimbolton as well. Don’t worry about the heaters that can’t afford it, those people always have negative opinions. Enjoy it
I have same exact watch. Also have a 41 DJ2 Wimbledon two tone. The 36 wears a lot better. Super comfortable and versatile. I barely even wear the 41 anymore. Will probably trade.
The size is great for you. The 36mm is a classic. Looks way more dressier and elegant than an oversized DJ41 on some wrists. Unfortunatelly, my wrist is to too large (almost 8") so I don't think I could pull off the 36mm and in my case the 41 doesn't look like a sports watch if I wear it. In other words, you must forget about the generic comments on the internet and go for what's right for you. And I think you picked well. Regards from Brazil.
That size watch suits your wrist. I have a 8" wrist so my 41 mm Wimbledon Datejust fits me well. My vintage 36mm Omega looks lost on me, so much so that i never where it.
I purchased a Tudor Bb58 Gilt, a year ago and loved its size. Tried on a Dj 36 blue jubilee at the Ad with a fluted bezel and it was so stunning. I have a 6.5 wrist and I couldn’t help myself put my name on list.
Well mate the 36mm dj is my favorite watch. My wife even told me it sexy when wearing a dress shirt. It’s bracelet size being 20mm with its lugs make the Watch look absolutely perfect and zero regrets of buying my first Rolex as a Dj 36. I just can’t take it off.
The disadvantage of the hidden clasp is that there is no micro adjust. Esthetically I'd rather have hidden clasp, but the oyster clasp is way better in adjusting.
Beautiful watch looks perfect on you and is an absolute classic. As for size, there is no way to go as so many say. Like a pair of trousers they either fit you or they don't. I have 8.5" wrists, so wear the 41. I tried the 36, but it was way too small for me. You also have to consider the number of links to be added. It's not all about the case size. A little late, but congratulations on your purchase.
I ordered the 40’and 36 not knowing which my brother would want for his birthday gift. The 40 came in first so my brother took that. Funny thing was even when Rolex was at their highest I barely made a grand on the 36 version. Idk it’s weird. I have an old 36 with the hidden clasp and I do think Rolex made a mistake doing away with it
The people who hate on the Datejust are typically the Daytona and Sub owners who try to make you feel like you spent your $10K the wrong way lol A small watch on a small guy looks WAY better than a large watch on a large guy. Keep doing you, bro!
Congratulations buddy. To me 36 oyster case is perfect on my wrist (16cm). I have a ROLEX Explorer 114270 and currently on the waiting list for the new 36 Explorer 124270. If I may ask what is the (music) soundtrack you used for this video??. Great video and even greater choice of a watch 👍
I had the 116900 Air King, which is an Oyster case in 40mm. It was fine for me, but I now own a new datejust in 36mm which fits me fine too. 15 years ago I wore a two tone Oysterdate in 34mm. I also wear 44mm Seiko and Breitling without any problems. People care too much about the case size. For me the Datejust in 41mm looks wrong, because they changed the proportions (bezel/case/dial proportions are different). The 36mm DJ on jubilee is the most comfortable watch I have ever owned.
Completely agree that the smaller watch is more elegant. Although I do wish it was a littleee bigger like 37mm. The datejust is my favorite Rolex model!
The size is good on you. The only issue I have with this watch as such is the cyclops lens. There seems to be dearth of real estate on the watch face to carry that. Wish Rolex had avoided it.
I'm 6' and like the wearability of a 36. My ego is not that big to have an oversized watch on my wrist to say, "Look at me !" I just got the same watch 👍 "Look at Meeeeee!"
Hate?! It’s awesome. I wish the 36s looked better on me. I need 40 I also WILL have a date just, Wimbledon, jubilee, w/ fluted bezel! Good taste, congrats!
I have a 36mm Explorer and it fits great, I have a 41mm Aqua Terra and it fits great, I also own a 42mm Speedmaster Moon watch and it fits great. Wear what you like. I plan on a 36mm Datejust in the near future.
A massive congratulations to you on your acquisition. I too truly adore the datejust. But man, that roman 4 is the biggest WTF decision from rolex ever.
If you’re referring to the fact that it’s IIII instead of IV then you should know that the majority of watch faces have IIII. This adds balance to the dial with the symmetry (4 letters for 4 and 8).
I had a 36mm Turn O Graph which was just like a Womans watch, but I now have the new 36mm which is substantially bigger and looks fine on my 7.5" wrist. The new 36mm is actually 36.9mm
If you wear a watch people don't notice until they're next to you, they'll assume you may have other qualities which are not conspicuously displayed. If they can see the watch as you're walking towards them, it's the opposite.
Im going to buy the same this weekend, I was just worried about the size as everyone almost goes with 41 - but I also want to use it as dress watch Im sure 41 will be useless morever 36 is a classic and looks much classy
I am 6 foot tall (184cm), have 7 inch wrists and 36mm fits me best. Some people are so insecure about themselves that they have to put down others.. fortunately, as adults, we can just ignore those people and do what suits us best.
I Agree. Im 6'4" 235lbs and i just like the 36mm better. I think it's sleeker and sexier to me.
U got a rollie if they aint got 1 and talkn bout da size…they gotta take da g shock off 1st,,then speak 2 u lol
@@jayzee60 disagree. G shock shits on every rolex that has ever been made in the entire history of the company.

they had to change it to add the micro adjust right?

It’s so pretty! Regarding size , almost all watches before 2000 were small.

I love the 36 - impressive but classy. A fluted jubilee is a little flashy but when it’s small, it’s great. If it’s big and flashy it’s a bit much.
I'm genuinely impressed with how close amzwatch were able to replicate every aspect of this very very goofy looking classic watch.
Beautiful watch man, I’ve always wanted the Wimbolton as well. Don’t worry about the heaters that can’t afford it, those people always have negative opinions. Enjoy it
Great watch and perfect fit. I have 7”+ wrist and I’ve sold all my 40mm watches and have gone to 36mm. Best decision I’ve made
trying on 36mm at the AD me and my rep definitely agreed 36 was the perfect size for me. 41 is for bigger people or chubby wrist lol

36mm is classic. It looks great on you. 36mm dressy piece and 40mm sporty piece combo meal deal!
The Datejust and the Exp.1 start from 36. 36 appears the correct size for simple dials.

Looks perfect on your wrist. Congratulations!

Great watch! Looks great on your wrist! Congratulations
I have a 80s datejust..love it!
Beautiful piece, 36 date-just with mint face ❤
Don’t listen, everyone how understand in watches even a little- knows that 36 is better
that Wimbledon with the green is actually my favorite datejust!

Did you receive it yet
@@Madeinlondon67 Yep. I actually got it about a month after being put on the list

Perfect two watch collection.
It is iconic! Looks great on your wrist. Enjoy. I love mine.
completely agree, DJ 36 fits so good.
Great video review of a beautiful watch. Do you wear your watch playing golf?
I had the 116900 Air King, which is an Oyster case in 40mm. It was fine for me, but I now own a new datejust in 36mm which fits me fine too. 15 years ago I wore a two tone Oysterdate in 34mm. I also wear 44mm Seiko and Breitling without any problems. People care too much about the case size. For me the Datejust in 41mm looks wrong, because they changed the proportions (bezel/case/dial proportions are different). The 36mm DJ on jubilee is the most comfortable watch I have ever owned.
Completely agree that the smaller watch is more elegant. Although I do wish it was a littleee bigger like 37mm. The datejust is my favorite Rolex model!
Totally agree. Let’s meet in between 36 and 40. Maybe 38?
I suppose 39 explorer and yachmaster is the middle man
The datejust is an awesome watch, and, I might say that it looks better than the sub. Everyone has a sub. It’s good to be different.
lol everyone has a datejust too
Great video, hopefully I get a call from my AD!
I agree with you. That 36mm is perfect.
The size is good on you. The only issue I have with this watch as such is the cyclops lens. There seems to be dearth of real estate on the watch face to carry that. Wish Rolex had avoided it.
I'm 6' and like the wearability of a 36. My ego is not that big to have an oversized watch on my wrist to say, "Look at me !"
I just got the same watch 👍
"Look at Meeeeee!"
Hate?! It’s awesome. I wish the 36s looked better on me. I need 40
I also WILL have a date just, Wimbledon, jubilee, w/ fluted bezel!
Good taste, congrats!
I have 7.5” wrists. I love big watches, but on a Datejust I like the 36.
I have a 36mm Explorer and it fits great, I have a 41mm Aqua Terra and it fits great, I also own a 42mm Speedmaster Moon watch and it fits great. Wear what you like. I plan on a 36mm Datejust in the near future.
36mm fits me perfectly. I tried the 41mm and it didn’t look right on my wrist.
how long was the wait time?!
Agree with you man. That one looks just perfect
A massive congratulations to you on your acquisition. I too truly adore the datejust. But man, that roman 4 is the biggest WTF decision from rolex ever.
If you’re referring to the fact that it’s IIII instead of IV then you should know that the majority of watch faces have IIII. This adds balance to the dial with the symmetry (4 letters for 4 and 8).
I had a 36mm Turn O Graph which was just like a Womans watch, but I now have the new 36mm which is substantially bigger and looks fine on my 7.5" wrist. The new 36mm is actually 36.9mm
Just beautiful!
For someone with a 6.25 in wrist. 36mm is damn perfect.
If you wear a watch people don't notice until they're next to you, they'll assume you may have other qualities which are not conspicuously displayed.
If they can see the watch as you're walking towards them, it's the opposite.
Is there any extension on the clasp?
How long did take to get?
Perfect. My wrist is 7 3/4. 40mm is about right. That size works for you.
Im going to buy the same this weekend, I was just worried about the size as everyone almost goes with 41 - but I also want to use it as dress watch Im sure 41 will be useless morever 36 is a classic and looks much classy
Absolutely gorgeous watch
36mm is the best! Datejust in history have always been 36mm. It’s just the best classic size. Watches are too big these days it loses the classy look
Nice men’s medium watch you’ve got.
