Looks perfect; forget what the small watch critics say.

I think it looks good. You need to make the bracelet a little larger and it would look more proportionate.

Normally I’d say go with the 41 but in this case the 36 looks just right on your wrist.

It looks great. Dress watches are supposed to be more subdued....

I have the same model with roman numerals - it's 13 years old and still looks amazing.

Looks great. 36mm is a classic size. This is the exact same DJ I have my eyes on.

I grew up when 34-36" was a standard men's dress watch size, regardless of your wrist size. So I say go for it, it looks great to me.

I'm 37, so I'm not sure if that puts me into a category of being able to say "I remember when 34-36" was the standard size for a men's watch. Regardless, the 36 Datejust looks great on your wrist and I can't understand wanting to go bigger.

Looks absolutely perfectly proportioned

Definitely don’t need the 41. Anyone who says this is small is mad. You don’t need the dinner plate look on a dress watch

Love it, jealous !

Mine is a 36 and I love it but a 38-39 would be perfect

I like it- no one outside of this watch community would even know their is a difference!

36 is plenty, but I’m sure 41 would rock!

Yes..l like it on you. I have a 41 and wish sometimes I could get away with a 36 then you have so many more options etc.

I think it looks great! If it were a sport model, I’d think it was a bit small, but the DJ 36 looks great on an average sided wrist.

That is perfect OP ! The question, IMO, is not about rocking 36mm but other sizes.

Another vote for it looks perfect on your wrist and that a DJ41 would look too big. That’s a fantastic watch and it couldn’t fit you better.
