Congrats on the watch, it looks great on you. I always tell my friends that ask about watches that life is short, if you have the means and want a watch now just go out and buy it. Don't wait or try to play any of the AD games, it's not worth it and at the end of the day it's just a watch. Enjoy it and stay healthy!

Stunning Datejust, looks great on you. Stay strong, and may you continue to smile when you look down at your new watch.

What do you do when your time’s running out? You finally buy a Rolex.

It’s the 36mm. If you look at the dials of both sizes, the 41mm includes minute numbers in between the stick indices and the rehault ring. It’s an easy way to differentiate the two.
