Midsize Datejust size?

Hey guys, I'm looking to get a pre-owned Midsize Datejust for my wife, but during my search, I noticed that most are 31mm and some are 33mm. Not sure if it was just a typo. Which one is it exactly? I haven't gone to an AD yet, just browsing around...Thanks!

I just bought one for my wife, and it's a great size for a woman. As far as I know, all newer ones are 31mm.

I've always thought DJ midsize is 31mm and YM mid is 35mm.

x2 - I haven't seen any 33mm. Maybe some preowned dealers are measuring them incl. the crown?

I've never seen a 33mm? 31mm yes.

Thanks guys. My wife still think that 31mm is still too small for her wrist. Maybe its time to go to an AD and try the men's size on her...

Now I recall, the 33-34mm DJ we were looking at is from the Masterpiece series (midsize). too bad not within our reach...
