6,5 inches in a ROLEX 116000 fits or not ?

Hi friends !!!

I am very near to buy a Rolex 116000, 36 mm. case with 3,6,9 marks in silver dial. The price is good. But my concern is not the watch itself, but if it fits well in my 6,5 inches wrist.
I do not have this point clear despite I tried the watch, that´s why I ask for your valuable opinions.

I still doubt if the size is small for my wrist, or I have to choose for a 39mm. case or more.

I had one that I sold and miss. Replaced it with a 36mm white gold daydate. Its a great size, doesn't catch cuffs or jackets. With 6,5 inches I would route for 36.

You have a small wrist. It will be fine.

I'm sure it will look fine.
36mm is a great size for your wrist.

Will be fine. I have a 7.5" wrist or slightly larger and tried it on yesterday along with a 39mm Exp1. I liked it fine, on the small side for my wrist for sure, but I kinda liked it. The 39mm actually felt big, bigger even than the Sub I also tried on, which I attribute to the larger dial size.





Unfortunately the stock bracelet is too small for me to get a good fit, would have needed another link.
