What would you guys buy?
Not the same hue black, not the same size but both caught my interest for immediate purchase.
I have smallish wrist.

Assuming you may be male?
36mm minimum.

I’d recommend the 36mm out of these two. Don’t happen to have any side by side, on the wrist pictures to help guide our recommendations?

Go with the 36mm. 34mm tends to disappear even on smaller wrists.

You can't go wrong either way. Is having the date important to you? The cyclops can be a love/hate thing among watch fans. If you like the fit of both I'd let it come down to the preference of a symmetrical dial vs one with the date.

I have a 36mm OP and feel the size works well for my 6.5 inch wrist. The green 34mm has tempted me very much and wouldn't let the slightly smaller size measurement be much of a factor.

If getting the standard Rolex size is important the 36mm is it. The 34mm's width is similar to the older 36mm width before the thicker lugs were introduced but the top to bottom (lug to lug) length is shorter on the 34mm.

Have you tried them on? What do you think of each?

36 mm in my 6,5 wrist

If I’m not mistaken, the bracelets are also different right?

One is fully brushed and the other isn’t

I there are pretty significant different between the two watches OP, have you tried both of them on?

Well that is the “problem”, I did try both and liked them equally. And in the meantime I tried the green OP 34 (again) :)

I think you need a nudge in the right direction

Once again, ridiculous comment vs size. 34 is just fine and you should get it if it sings to you.

That’s your opinion and I have mine. My wife is petite and slim yet wears a 35mm YM. 39/40 is the smallest I’d go. ADs I speak to say even 36mm is unisex now.

I appreciate your view but mine stands.
