New Guy from Michigan!

Hello everyone!

I've been lurking for quite some time. Just a regular guy who loves horology, in a position to purchase a first grail piece! Too bad it's during the worst market ever lol. I look forward to learning a ton from the community. I am also an active member on watcuseek, as well as the Rolex and watch selling Reddit subs. Current daily is my Omega Seamaster blue wave 007 41mm. Now biggest question is......can I pull off a 36mm Rolex with a 7 1/4 inch wrist since all AD's are empty?? Something the community has never heard before.....anyways looking forward to meeting everyone!

Cheers,
J

Welcome neighbor. Wear whatever size you like and don't worry about it.

That's the rub! All the AD's are completely empty! I don't know if I'd like a 36mm because nobody has any to compare

I have the same size wrist and have the 39mm Explorer. I wouldn't want to go smaller.

Find a local dealer that sells pre-owned watches, they should have a variety of models/sizes. Might even have what you're looking for!

Yeah all of the pre-owned dealers around me have none as well.
