It is not really noticeable, and my measuring instrument is crude, but even 36 is pushing it for me. But Rolex has that way of laying out the dial...

And it weighs 80 grams!!! It is nice, I'm happy, thank you and the rest for the cool pics and details...
Rolex is always a bit loose with measurements. The 36mm DJ has always been more like 35mm. If you measure diagonally, though, with some of the case in there, it gets to 36mm. Heck, if you measure the bezel alone, you may end up with something even smaller:
