Hello again fellas... and ladies! I recently posted a photo of a preloved DJ that I purchased... well the watch finally arrived and it's a beauty! However, being a big guy (6'3") I just feel the watch is a bit too small on my wrist...

However my wife tried it on... and while it looks very, very big on her... we kind of think it looks cool in a way...

I know this is just a matter of personal opinion, but I'm just wondering how you guys personally feel about larger watches on ladies???

I'll post a wrist shot on my wife when I can!!

allday....plenty of ladies sporting 40mm sport models these days.

MonBK · 8 January 2011, 11:34 PM

Perfect size for a lady.

Watch Professor · 8 January 2011, 11:34 PM

I think that it would be fine. Let's see a picture.

barrycccslp · 9 January 2011, 12:11 AM

I'll try to get a photo up soon of her wrist!
Thanks fellas!
Happy weekend!

Kapture1 · 9 January 2011, 12:12 AM

It would look big on her, but big is in, so I would say perfect fit.

Dan Pierce · 9 January 2011, 12:18 AM

Bet it will look great. Nice DJ, btw!

Personally think that your DJ will look fantastic on your wife. My wife wears 'our' Daytona and whilst the bracelet is pretty loose it looks great on her. To give you an idea of her size - she sometimes wears some of our son's (6 years) clothes...

I picked a 36 mm dj for my girl this Christmas and she loves it.

KirkWilfred · 9 January 2011, 02:21 AM

Perfect size!

Dr. Robert · 9 January 2011, 02:26 AM

Not to change the subject.......but...on the Rolex website the 36mm datejust is listed under women's collection....I guess the 41mm datejust 2 is now the men's version?

p.s. I still think the 36mm datejust should be listed under the men's collection.....

520Matt · 9 January 2011, 02:34 AM

My Wife is 5'3" and petite and both this 34mm and 36mm look great on her. I think it's a matter of what you are used to seeing on her wrist. The other day a woman was sitting in front of me at a BB ball game and she had on the same DJ that my wife has but in 29mm and it looked tiny to me.

Robert J. · 9 January 2011, 02:37 AM

I think it is your wifes choice but I like it

m5blitzer · 9 January 2011, 03:02 AM

Big works depending on the occasion. For a petite lady, a smaller case looks more elegant during special events and the like. It really boils down to what she is comfortable with. Nice DJ though!

Gerardus · 9 January 2011, 03:12 AM

No problem, for man and ladies.

psv · 9 January 2011, 03:34 AM

My wife wears a Sub, looks great on her.

Maxtor · 9 January 2011, 03:36 AM

It will look great. Tell her to try it for a week and she will never want to take it off.

Tunacan26 · 9 January 2011, 03:46 AM

I am WAY in the minority here.

While larger watches can look good on woman, no doubt about it, I'm not so sure this is not just a "fad." Maybe fed by various hollywood-types being pictured wearing bigger watches. Time will tell. Similarly, are 45+mm. watches on men also a "fad"? I think so. Get back to me in 2015 and we can find out together.

Nica64 · 9 January 2011, 03:59 AM

Perfect size, it will look great.

barrycccslp · 9 January 2011, 10:39 AM

Thanks, guys! We went to our AD to have links taken out today... and it looks GREAT on her! We love it! Wrist shot coming SOON!!

Art 1 · 9 January 2011, 10:48 AM

I think the 36mm can look good with certain clothes, more casual. Wouldn't look good with a dress or dress clothing. IMO.

MortgageGuy · 9 January 2011, 10:51 AM

It will look awesome

My wife wears a 36mm DJ with flower dial and diamond bezel... Just got it for her and she is in love again (with the watch

). She will not take the darn thing off

barrycccslp · 9 January 2011, 11:57 AM

As promised... here are the pics!! This is my wife's FIRST Rolex!!! She loves it... and I didn't even intend to buy it for her... it's funny how it works out sometimes!
