I am thinking of adding A white gold president to my collection. Either as 18239,118239, or 118209. Dial recommendations as well. Would love to see some pictures of yours and how you have liked them over time. I have a tendency to flip but trying to break that habit. They would be joining my collection below.

Interesting that you feel this way. The DD40 actually wears smaller on my wrist
than the 116710 I used to own. Also, am surprised that it fits bigger than your YM and Sub but I suppose it's all about perceptions.

no insight as to the DD36 unfortunately but have you found the DD40 to wear larger than the submariner? I didn't think so myself but curious to hear your opinion. Also, I love that 15450! Any thoughts (or even better, wristshots) as to how it compares to the sub?

The YM is 37mm. I do love the DD 40 just financially out of reach.

How can a 40mm DD be too big when you wear a ceramic sub? They wear smaller than a ceramic sub. And yes I have 2 DD40s and 2 subs in my collection.

Everyone needs a white gold 36mm Day Date in their collection:

All class.

d4v3 · 4 August 2018, 06:43 PM

I would love a 36mm DD but I have quite a flat 8" wrist. I tried a 36mm DJ and it looked like a button on me.
Might try the DD just out of hope.

Bobby Flay has this exact reference

Not mentioned as a ref that you were considering but here is my 1803 that I absolutely love and consider my top 3 favorite watch:

40 mm white gold with rhodium dial. Absolutely a great watch. There is no question that the 36 mm is plenty big enough, however, the 40 is not too big. It where is smaller than that sub.

The proportions look weird on the 40mm, also.
