Maybe you can give me advise whether I should update to the DD40 or do you think mine fits me and my frame well? Any help welcome, dear members.

I think it fits you fine but a 40 will as well. Keep what YOU like best on your wrist, its YOUR sense of style that matters.

It looks as proper and appropriate as it should.

I think it suits you perfectly - To my eye, the only place the 40 is distinctly more suitable is on wrists of truly extraordinary girth. The 36 is and always has been The Classic, and I doubt that will ever change.

You should of course try on a 40 at some point and see what you think, but I expect that if the 36 felt wrong to you, you would never have splashed out the cash for it in the first place.

People who spend other people's money on other people's goods make the worst poker players.

Or.... we had both the 36, then the 40 and know there is a huge difference

Doesn’t look bad, but you can easily pull off the 40MM DD size. Moneywise is a big jump, though!

I think the dd40 would better suit your frame. If you do go that route, would you keep it white gold or go for a different metal?

I would add the DD40, but also white gold, white or black baguette dial
I sold my SkyD as it was too top heavy and I'm starting to hate the Explorer 2 as it's also not as comfortable to wear like my DD36 or my 116520
My Hulk and GMT Master II are also less comfy than the aforementioned
