Changed my collection

Folks...is it just me?

I have as my day watch a bi metalic GMT on a Jubilee bracelet thats like new that I love. (Ive had it 20 yrs. I have just bought two new Rolies...

My life long dream of a Day Date President in Gold. I also bought a BRAND NEW - OLD STYLE explorer 2.

I bought the explorer while I could still get this new as I dont like the new one so much. Is it just me or are these new larger Rolex watches not as nice...They dont seem to fit the bracelet - the scale is out for me.I much prefer the smaller watch as I think its far more elegant and a proper balenced design between bracelet scale and watch and I think more sophisticated and will stand the test of time. I know its only 1mm . Any one else agree or am I just getting fuddy duddy as I get older?
love to know what a designer thinks of putting a larger watch while keeping the bracelet unchanged?

Thanks!
