Bought a 36mm for the mom in law.

I decided to try it on because they say this is the classic size. I have a 7.25 inch wrist.

This will be her early Christmas gift. YOLO

Honestly no. I thought it was a little small to be honest. Glad there are different sizes and options.

It's interesting and must be due to wrist shape, but mybwristbjs bigger than yours and a 36mm looks more in proportion.

Did you have the pleasure of explaining to her what a Rolex waitlist is? Always a fun topic to explain to someone that has no idea what's going on.

I personally think that's the best 36mm Datejust combo at the moment. Looks fantastic!
