acadianl79 · 7 January 2010, 02:31 PM

41mm for me

DanP · 7 January 2010, 02:32 PM

DD2 please. I love the blue roman dial.

Alan111 · 7 January 2010, 02:38 PM

36mm. 41mm is waay to disproportionate. And yellow gold!!

Wolfgang427 · 7 January 2010, 02:51 PM

36mm is just right.

JBat · 7 January 2010, 02:56 PM

36mm.

gone-rolex-mad · 7 January 2010, 06:14 PM

36mm YG. A true classic.

daunwaun · 7 January 2010, 06:21 PM

36mm is a beauty!!!

larrysb · 7 January 2010, 06:21 PM

36mm. Time tested classic. It just looks right, all the proportions are in harmony. I went with pt.

The big one, not my cup of tea. Doesn't seem to be in proportion. I think the giant watch/tuna-can on your wrist thing is a fad and won't be in vogue down the rode. More power to ya if you like it.

brkanand · 7 January 2010, 06:22 PM

I would go for 41 mm

G.J · 7 January 2010, 06:37 PM

Why change a classic??

I voted 36mm

Cocobaci · 7 January 2010, 08:00 PM

36mm YG

Andad · 7 January 2010, 09:08 PM

I like my 36mm DD and DJ but the 41mm is the goods.

MAWhite · 7 January 2010, 10:58 PM

I've had the new DD2 on my wrist and something just looked wrong about it.
Also I don't believe that your dress watch...

should be bigger than your sports watch.

Just one of those unnatural cats and dogs living together kind of things.
As for Yellow or Rose or White or Plat; they all rock.

Best,
Mike

Sonny Crockett · 7 January 2010, 11:22 PM

DD II and DJ II Finally not too small!

My sports watch is the DSSD so it's bigger than the Dress watch

DD/DJ 36mm is the same size watch as any 40mm sport rolex. At least the part you look at to tell time. So the beauty of the 36mm is the extremely elegant proportion.

I can't understand why one would more 'mass' for something that is supposed to be 'elegant' (a dress watch)

But than again, each to his own

STEELINOX · 8 January 2010, 12:02 AM

41

acce1999 · 8 January 2010, 12:23 AM

I am conservative (or perhaps traditional) here, and also have fairly skinny wrists, so I prefer the 36 mm DD, especially on oyster bracelet and smooth bezel. Those are great!

Ebruner · 8 January 2010, 12:26 AM

THE Day Date is 36mm and always will be.

The new DDII is a different watch and should not be compared to the classic DD.

I am sure others will differ, but the DDII and YMII are bad bad things that need to go away.

JJ Irani · 8 January 2010, 03:16 AM

I've actually had the opportunity to try on the 41 mm and it looked absolutely terrific on my wrist. If I could afford it, I'd have it......in YELLOW gold!!

Christiaan · 8 January 2010, 03:20 AM

41mm for me please. Rose Gold. Bronze wave dial.

ersnyder · 8 January 2010, 03:40 AM

I think the new 41mm looks great in either WG or YG.

Dr. Robert · 8 January 2010, 04:32 AM

I have small wrists....36mm's fine...classic yellow gold, champagne dial.............not a day date but it's mine.......................

Mr. K · 8 January 2010, 04:32 AM

I like 36 mm.

I would go for the 41mm but at 5'8" and 150 pounds, it would just be too big for me. I think also I could get away with a bigger sports watch, but to have that big of a gold watch on the wrist would look a little silly.
