Same here 7.5 inch wrist. YG Sub fits me perfect, as well as any 40mm

I only wear dinner plate watches on my wrist.

My chances of being a trend setter aren't very good?

I have been noticing a decline in Panerai prices used, and more 36-40 mm watches showing up in forum photos. I have always been a dinner plate on a small wrist buyer, although I am titrating toward 40mm with legible dial for aging eyes. I blame buying a 36 mm on a guy named Red Adair, but I am curious as to whether there is a change in popular sizing for Rolex wearers. Not saying "follow a trend". Just wondering if there is one.

Except perhaps for the DJ41 which is 39.5mm.

Yes, there clearly is and it’s a great trend

Rolex should have never changed the DD
Good choice on the 36

Trend shmend...buy & wear what you like while enjoying it in good health!

Any of you tried clothes shopping for a teen these days? I should’ve held onto all my old clothes while growing up. Just because some designers & celebs start wearing (whatever) doesn’t mean we have to follow suit.

I really hope so! ROLEX we need a 38mm sub!

I do not know and have never really cared. I have used 36mm as daily beaters for around 12 years now. But then again I am a millennial.
