So you thought it was funny to eh? LOL You'd agree with any beautiful Rolex dealer I think. Got pics (not the watch)?

Enjoy your evening JJ

Hi Dan,

Wrist is 7˝" but I'm a big guy at 6' and 200+ pounds. I actually appreciated that lady's honesty 'cause even I found it looking quite silly on my wrist. 36 mm is just not me!!

It better look good on me, I had just about everything altered and spent more on the tailoring than he probably spent on his suit!
Suck up time is over, I already paid for it, last week.
I had the tailor press out the shoulder a bit, than it really looked good.
I probably would have said something like "You really think it looks funny?". Got a depressed look on my face, and followed up with "Thats too bad, I really wanted to order the meteorite and diamond Day-date, but I guess it would be too small for me too". "Oh well!" and exit immediately as they begin to stammor and backpedal.
Not every salesperson is a brown-noser. It sounds like he was just trying to compliment you on a nice suit.

not to sound too cynical, as im sure u have a great and long established relationship with your AD now, but perhaps as this is one of the oldest/lowest RRP models too!? I suppose not if you were to go two tone...
