we think alike my friend, but she didnt want that look, I tried!

Looks good and try preowned would be safer for your wallet...

thanks and good advise, now working on that

Headshrinker · 14 October 2014, 02:43 AM

Excellent choice. I too am biased, because that watch began my fascination with Rolex as my Dad owned one. I have to ask, delicately Dr. Tom, how do you and your wife share watches so readily? Is it just a matter of a pin adjustment? Your forearms always appear muscular and quite "vascular" while your wife's are the epitome of femininity (not that I took undo notice!).

jack81 · 14 October 2014, 03:43 AM

I think you make excellent choice with that dj. TT, Oyster, black dial, and most importantly it has diamonds on the dial. I bet it look really goon on her wrist.

fair question, I have small wrists 6.5 inch, she is smaller but wears the watches loose and me pretty tight so works out great (mostly for me!)

well me I tried to get a YG Daytona, and she didnt go for that, darn!

she saw this and imed liked it. My AD would give me a BIG discount on it.

My question is would it look ok on me? everyone posts up the classic 36mm size and I kinda miss that option

so this would be a present for the wife, but thinking would look ok if I wore it also??

thoughts....

thanks

tom

Nothing wrong with a 36mm Datejust. It is a classic for a reason. It surprisingly wears "larger" than other 36mm watches, especially since Rolex upgraded the lugs back in 2005. I own two Datejusts and love them both.

You can totally pull this off. Being accustomed to 40mm watches, it is understandable your reservations regarding smaller watches. I doubt you will have any regrets towards wearing a Datejust. The one you are trying on looks amazing on you.

Looking forward to seeing the incoming/WRUW thread in December.

thanks its a great inbetween for wife and I and was suprised how big it looked, thanks for the input Eric, will see pics in near future

StevePirates · 14 October 2014, 04:06 AM

I like my sports watches big, and my dress watches slender. I think it looks great on you. Nothing wrong with the David Bowie of watches.

BNA/LION · 14 October 2014, 04:07 AM

Go For It! You may really like the feel of a 36mm on your wrist and the size will be great for her too.

rmfnla · 14 October 2014, 04:10 AM

36mm is a great choice, I wear mine every day.

And, the DJ will dress up a bit more than your usual Daytona...

2Redbulls · 14 October 2014, 04:21 AM

Tom,

The watch looks totally natural on your wrist. You can definitely pull it off. Much better to have a watch make your wrist look stout then a huge watch on a thin wrist that looks like your trying to overcompensate.

mikeceee · 14 October 2014, 04:23 AM

It's no Platona or BLRO, but get it for wifey and if you ever feel the urge by all means rock it with confidence!!

The 36mm Datejusts look great on you Tom.....

But before you pull the trigger... You & your wife should look at the 36mm Day-Date.....

It will look nice on your wife & on you too Dr. Tom......

408cissss · 15 October 2014, 06:07 AM

Looks good to me Tom!!

locutus49 · 15 October 2014, 06:25 AM

Looks great on you, perfect size. Normally I don't care for diamonds, but on that dial they look good. All in all a great find.
