The 36mm version is the original, classic and perfectly proportioned Datejust. I tried to love the 41mm version but it just didn't work for me.

It's not only about the actual size. It's about the design/proportions too. It just doesn't look right at 41mm. The 36mm has an elegance to the shape/size that is completely lost on the bigger version. The original size has worked for men for 75 years as the most successful Rolex ever ... so it always surprises me when guys wonder whether it's too small.

Here's my latest, a 126234 on my 6.75-inch wrist.
