Hi all: Seeking your advice. 34 or 36 OP for my approximately 7-inch wrist? I like the double indices and numerals on the 36. But I also have old-fashioned tastes in watch size--I feel comfortable with smaller watches, so a 34 is not out of the question for me. I do like the white dial in either size. I've attached a few pics. Please let me know what you think! Thanks!

The 36 for sure. Looks great.

Thanks! The AD recommended 36, too. He said I should get a 36 modern Rolex, and save 34 for a vintage. Thanks again!

36 looks ok
Did you try 39 mm ?

36 imo, looks great on you

kbutler1 · 16 June 2019, 10:30 AM

Both look good!

poidog81 · 16 June 2019, 10:31 AM

Try the 39

39 would feel uncomfortably large for me. If I liked 39, I would shell out the extra $$ and buy an Explorer!

Thanks!

Thanks! I believe at this point I am leaning toward 36.

I know, that's the problem it's a close call with the 2 mm difference! But your opinion is reassuring--I can't go wrong either way!

Thanks, wow, I didn't foresee people recommending sizing up to a 39! interesting! but I would get a 36 over a 39, for sure. I have very old-fashioned tastes, and to me, even a 36 with the cushion-case wears a bit large. thanks again!

Fat_ninja · 16 June 2019, 10:43 AM

The 36. But that’s not the new 36? The lugs seem bigger? Maybe it’s just me

Yw. If you were going 34 make sure to check our the green dial OP. It is a stunner.

CPTAmericaMV · 16 June 2019, 10:46 AM

Larger one

Thanks! I mean, it's a new watch at an AD. And the white dial OP didn't come out all that long ago, right? Maybe there's something I don't know? anyway, thanks!

both work. Depends if you like double batons. I like both. I have a 34 with 369 arabics. The size difference of 2mm is minor, imho.

The 369 Explorer-style numerals are quite tempting!

I do like the double batons and the small numerals a bit more than the dots at the indices.

Thanks for your opinion that both sizes work. I believe so, too, and that is making the decision hard! :)

36 it’s just perfect.

BDII · 16 June 2019, 11:01 AM

36 is just right

sillo · 16 June 2019, 11:05 AM

Louribal · 16 June 2019, 11:05 AM

36 for sure

briweed · 16 June 2019, 11:07 AM

My vote is 36 or 39. I think you will wish you bought larger if you get the 34.
