My 36mm DD looks half that size and it still looks good to me. My only other Rolex is a JC DSSD - love them both. I'd hate to say that size doesn't matter because of the implications ...

I think it looks ok but would probably look better if centered an inch or so off the wrist bones.

Looks ok. Maybe you're just wanting something new?

I agree, it would look better worn on the other side of the wrist bone.

This….. I can’t imagine wear a watch on the joint where my wrist flex’s.
And as a bonus it will look slightly larger in comparison to the band / wrist.

This, but the size is definitely right. Beautiful watch, enjoy!

Looks fine. I don't buy the whole "men should wear massive watches" sentiment. You're just a big dude. Nothing wrong with it.

I like the watch but think you should wear it above the wrist bone, not down on your hand.

Like this reference, looks little (just little) small, depending of your style, but if you decide to sale , please let me know

Great timepiece. Wish they would bring back the Turn-O-Graph. I would wear it for fun but it looks too small in my opinion. Been there, done that. 36mm watches are like short shorts. Yes, they came back into style, but they aren’t for everyone.

I think it would look MUCH BETTER if you wore it on the other side of your wrist bone.

My opinion, I think it looks small but that might be because it’s so close to your wrist so to me it looks off.

To the OP (SL-BRABUS) -

This is a non-event.
You need to end your “Paralysis From Analysis” and just enjoy your watch. Period.
It’s irrelevant what anybody thinks about the size or sizing or fit….Bottom line is you’ve got a really nice SS Rolex and you should be proud to own and wear it. Period.
Good Luck to you

It looks small. That’s not necessarily bad, but yes, it looks small
