Question for DJ Turn-O-Graph 16264 owners

[Fletcher's Dad]

Morning everyone. Just a quick question regarding fit/size of the Rolex DJ Turn-O-Graph 16264 (and please note I am asking for only this particular model which was available 1990-2005). I am just wondering if it fits/feels bigger than a traditional DJ 36mm of that time? I guess I am trying to determine if the addition of the white gold bezel increases the size slightly given that the dial of the DJ is typically the same size as it's 40mm sport counterparts at that time (GMT, Sub, etc). I own a Tudor mid-size sub (75190) which is also 36mm but with that watch, the dial is smaller to accommodate the bezel which makes it feel pretty small. If this is the same situation with the 16264, I would not have interest in adding it to my collection. Thanks in advance!

I own a 1991 16263 which is the same watch as the 16264 but in yellow gold. I also own a 1991 16220. The dial size is the same in both watches but the 16263 wears larger because the Turn-O-Graph bezel is larger. In fact, the bezel noticeably overlaps the case. So much so that it's a bit tricky having to pull out the crown under the bezel to set the watch. Here's a shot of both - notice that the crown in each is tight against the case:

This is exactly what I was looking and hoping for - many thanks!

Yes. Mine wears larger. The white gold bezel definitely is prominent and an eye father and makes the watch appearlarger

Glad I could help.

I have a turn o graph from 2000 and I would say it does look a bit bigger on the wrist than my dads 5 diget 36mm datejust. And it’s a great watch has the datejust charm with a sportier edge over all ways loved mine.

Drawing a comparison to the Tudor mid-size sub (75190), which has a smaller dial to accommodate the bezel, does the 16264 exhibit a similar dial-to-bezel ratio, potentially impacting its perceived size?
