18038 For a lady

Good evening, I purchased my wife a 69173 26mm Two tone datejust a little over a year ago- Come to find out she has an allergy to the stainless steel. Looking at gold options the 26mm lady’s president bracelet seems very flimsy to the 36mm Day Date. Is the 36MM bracelet adjustable to fit a petite lady? Thanks for your time!

I believe it should be just fine and likely look great. Rolex made some smaller all gold watches as well through the years if 36 proves bigger than she likes. I think it would likely look great however.

It should work just fine. I wear 46 mm watches . My wrists are not tiny, nor am I petite, but it looks like my watches could fit as small as a 5 inch wrist, or even slightly smaller.

My wife wears large watches and it very much suits her. One is a 18238.

Wrists are shaped differently, even petite ones like your wife's. The thing to also check is the clasp blade length.

Even with all the removable links taken out, the way the clasp sits on the underside of her wrist could be unwieldy. If it is longer than her's, then it may become an issue.
