Much of what goes into the comfort of any watch is the sizing of it. I've found, when correctly sized, any size/metal watch of modern reference, to be extremely comfortable.

Having said that, the new YM OF series with glide lock is spectacularly comfortable.

Exp 1 214270 - One of the few watches that looks good on virtually any strap imaginable.

Because of that, I find it the most comfortable as I swap out straps based on the scenario.

These two. Sourced an easy link for the Exp2 to make it comfie at all times but I have to give a slight edge to DJ41 for the silky smooth jubilee bracelet.

Not a fan of the word "Rollie"...last time I heard this used was in a funny kid's movie with Eddy Murphy...made me laugh though.

Explorer. Don’t know it’s there when on.
Explorer II is a close 2nd.

Really wish Rolex would drop the whole 41 from their nomenclature. This watch is 39mm. As much as I love the look it’s just a small watch IMO. Went through 2 of them but couldn’t get over the small look and feel.

I find that the Daytona sits so well on the wrist. Perfectly comfortable...

So you don't think "DJ Jub Flute" is going to catch on as the new nickname?

Beautiful

The OP39 in black and white had a relatively short run. I think this and the white one are going to be coveted in future.

Just absolutely fantastic watches

16750 GMT Master. Not too large, not too heavy, just comfortable to wear.

16710 on OEM bracelet, janky though it may be, it’s super comfy. Even more than my $50k Day Date platinum or $40k GMT II WG. Sheesh!

1680. If it had quick set it’d be the perfect watch.
