New Sub Size Feedback

Hello everyone,

Today I visited my AD and I had the chance to see the new subs on the flesh and have my hands on the new sub and sub date! To my eyes the proportions seem better than the 11 series and was really comfortable on wearing.
What do you think about the size for my wrist (slightly less than 7'')?
I attach some photos for reference also for the dimensions of the watch.

P. S to my eyes the new sub looks really stunning!

Looks fantastic!

I had the chance to try it on and it wears similar to the previous 114060/116610.

Both of them were for demonstration unfortunately.. Already the first ones are on VIP clients' wrists.
There is a big wish list but only existing customers are allowed to register. .lets see how it goes, the AD was optimistic for having something in the next 6+ months in general and made me rethink if I should pull the trigger for a full sticker 114060 from Sep 2020 that I have been looking

Looks very nice. Some of these out of whack pictures are obviously catering to a certain bias when you actually see pictures taken by someone just honestly trying one on. Well done.

I have a similar wrist size and this just gets me more excited about my decision to pull the trigger on the new Sub Date. My AD met with Rolex this past Thursday and says delivery hopefully before Christmas. Fingers crossed.

You can pull it off but too big for your wrist.

not too big for your wrist at all - if it were then 90% of sub wearers shouldnt be wearing one

a 11610ln would i bet look more dominating on your wrist

i have a 7" wrist and will not be cancelling my order

Yes, thats happen all the time.

Watch is like a piece of clothing, if you wear S you can't simple pull a XL shirt, but many watches comes with a unique size and thats a problem.

A photo of the new sub in a 7.5 inch wrist, you can notice the diference.

Looks great, but I'm not sure I'd know if it was a new model without you telling me so.

Based on your pictures the lugs appears to overhang your wrist, so too big for you in my view. If you Mike it though that is all that matters.

Honestly not going to hate, looks good but it likes a SD, maybe just the shot or wrist.

If you bought it congrats..

It does look more like a slightly larger, longer span GMT case.

Agreed.
Do you think they will actually sell all of them though?

I think if they don't get right on top of this business with the 32xx movement, the name Rolex will be mired in controversy and be stigmatised.
