DJ41 fit?

I was wondering, I had a DJII a few years ago and thought it looked a bit big for my 7-inch wrist so I sold off. How is the fit of the DJ41? would that work for me or would it still look about the same, I'm asking because I have read that there have been alterations to the case and bezel which could affect the size appearance.

Go to an AD and try one on! It's the only way to know for sure, good luck.

I have had most every SS piece in the catalogue. I have nearly an 8" wrist. All were comfortable right out of the box except the SSYM2 which was heavy.

Just got a DJ41 Smooth bezel, jubilee, black dial. Without question, the most comfortable Rolex I have ever owned. Right size, easily adjusted if needed, the jubilee not only "pops" but is far more comfortable than the oyster. I wear it playing golf and I don't even notice it's on. The prior poster is right to say go try it on. No substitute for that. I know for sure the jubilee is a work of art. Good luck.

I have the same wrist size as you and also owned a DJ2.

I tried the DJ 41 on last summer and thought it wore smaller (to me at least). If has a slimmer lug profile and the bezel seemed a bit more subtle.

I quite liked it, but realized it wasn’t for me. YMMV

Easyish answer really , get yourself down to a AD & try on as many DJ36 , DJ2 & DJ41 that you can. The one that feels right will be the one I would recommend .

Same size wrist here and the DJ 41 fits me quite well. Jubilee bracelet felt super comfortable. Have placed my order and am waiting for the watch to come in.

DJ41 actually wears smaller than the size it describes. And that's the reason I love DJ41. If it can work well for my 6.3" wrist, I don't why it won't for you.

Try one on. I have a 7inch wrist and my Dj41 wears on the small side.

DJ 41 is actually 39.xx mm. I tried one on last weekend and it fit perfectly right out of the case. I have a 7.25 inch wrist.
