Beautiful! Buck the trend of bigger watches and wear 'em. I'm going back to loving vintage sizes. A couple of years ago, 36mm seemed too small to me. Now, I think it looks great, especially for a dress watch.

These little oldies are so charming.
Yes, they are agains the present trend of BIG sized watches, but they are true classics, very beautiful in design, and with the added nostalgia touch.
I love these pieces of some 50 or 60 years ago!
Enjoy them so much!
Kind regards, Abel.

36mm looks fine on me, fortunately!
