Traded in 31 for 36
I was debating between a 31 and 36 and got the call for a 31. I tried it on and took it thinking I liked that it was more subtle. I also worried that the oversized trend would die out. However, after several months, I found it was a bit too small for me.
I traded it in for the 36 with the same configuration and so happy! I find that this one is not oversized on me either. |

Looks perfect on you! Beautiful choice. I love the Rhodium dial. Jubilee and fluted bezel are my favorites on a DJ! Congrats and enjoy.

Looks great on you, congratulations!
I must admit your eye bracelet rubbing the side of it makes me think of someone scratching a chalk board or playing with styrofoam though.Lol

Congrats! Good move! Looks great, and fits you about the same as my 36’s fit me. I have always gone for larger watches.

Congratulations! My wife has also become more comfortable with larger pieces and now prefers them. She started with a 28 many years ago, then a 31 and a 34 and finally a 36…She actually now has a Nomos 38 that she’s added. Enjoy!

Looks perfect to me. Plus 36 is the middle ground prior to 40 so I doubt it will be affected by the female oversize trend. I don’t see that trend changing anyway and think the women wearing 40 mm Daytona’s etc look amazing. They always get a second look from me but only due to watch lol

Good move seems like more and more women are going for the 36. My wife likes her 36 over any of the smaller faces!

I suggest removing that bracelet. It will scratch your watch, no matter how careful you are. I say this from experience. Thankfully, I scratched the stainless steel on a few Seikos, not my Rolexes.

Good move. I just bought my wife a 36mm watch and I think it's the perfect size for a woman. Looks great on you.
